He'd been in this confinement far too long. It was time to break free of this psuedo coma and come into this world, but he couldn't do it without a fabulous enterance. For the black foal, the large obsidian stone was becoming rather claustrophobic and he needed space. Doing his best to stretch, he pressed against the walls of his chrysalis but nothing happened. Was it not time for this foal to hatch?

It had to be. He barely had enough room left to breathe in here.

He gave it one last go, hoping he was strong enough to break free this time. Unable to take it in here any longer without being in a coma-like sleep, he pressed against the walls harder now, hoping he'd weakened them the last time and they'd shatter this time.

He willed it to happen, and it did. With a large crack! the obsidian splintered down the middle before shattering into a million pieces, spilling the equally black equine onto the floors of Polaris. He felt alive and confidently tried to stand. His legs were wobbly, but he did it. Holding his head high, the tiny foal smirked as his legs stiffened to support his weight sturdily.

Never again would he allow himself to fall back into that coma-like sleep encased in stone! He shook his tiny foal mane and then his body, removing the fluids from his pristine black coat. Confidence corsed through the veins of the young stallion and he snorted before tucking his chin. Rearing up, his weight settled in his hind legs as his front legs lifted into the air and kicked at it in triumph. He was free!

Upon landing and his hooves hitting the ground, it shook all around him making him uneasy and his footing unsure. A mini earthquake, it seemed. Once it ended, his nerves subsided and suddenly it seemed really awesome. Had he done that? It was perfect when his hooves hit the ground, but was it a coincidence? He snorted and shook his head again before looking at the room around him. Where was he anyway?

For a long while a colt slumbered, uninterrupted for the entire growth period. It wasn't until the ground suddenly trembled around him did he stir. Large blue eyes popped open wide and long legs quickly tried to shift and move. The colt rolled and twisted, annoyed that he had been woken up and now could not find a rather comfortable position to lay in. With a loud snort, Nemestrinus suddenly kicked out his hind legs. A loud crack was heard as hooves collided with stone. Cracks quickly spiderwebbed all over the black opal gemstone, but it didn't quite give way and release the gembound it held within.

Now he was restless, twisting and rolling all the more as he pushed all hooves against the inner walls of his chrysalis. With one more kick of his hind legs he hoped to be free of the cramped space he had woke to find himself in. Another swift CRACK of his hooves against the chrysalis and the walls of the chrysalis finally gave way with a deafening shatter and the ashen colored colt went sliding out with a shriek of a noise. The colt hacked and wheezed as the liquid of his chrysalis was quickly dispelled from his lungs. dripping out from his nose and forcefully being pushed out his mouth.

Once he was free of the once life giving liquid Nemestrinus sucked in a much needed breath of air before he grunted and sighed. Hosta blue eyes finally lifted up until he finally gazed upon the abysmal creature that stood only a few feet away from him. His ears rolled up, pointing directly towards the other colt as interest rose. Hhis mouth opened, almost as if her were about to say something, but instead a quick whinny was his greeting to the fresian.

Near him, there was another chrysalis. The familiar cracking sound came from it as his had and it caught his attention, turning his head with black and red eyes towards the sound. Another equine slid out of his encasing and his eyes narrowed at the tawny foal. Smaller, but just by a little, but he was okay with that. Standing tall, he snorted at the foal when he whinnied at him. While he hadn't seen his own reflection as of yet, seeing this other foal almost made him laugh. Hopefully he didn't look like that.

"Who's you?" The black foal asked, wondering who he himself was after he asked. He asked a question though, therefore his own calling didn't matter as of yet. His eyes narrowed at the younger foal some more, waiting for his answer. Being the oldest of this duo, he demanded answers. Hesitantly walking over to the smaller foal, he looked down at him a little, but it was enough to make him feel more adequate in comparison.

It wasn't too long after her hatching, possibly a day but the young equine had no knowledge of things like days. So, she just took things a day at a time so during this second day of life she wandered from her birthplace of Pisces and went straight towards Polaris. She could remember the words of Tuck clearly in her mind about new gembounds, how she should be wary and not trust them right off... But how could she not? She wanted everyone to be friends! How could other gems not be friends? It was so strange...

The filly shook her head, not wanting such troubling thoughts. She would just take things as they came. Just like the thing she saw in the distance, the silhouettes of two creatures that reminded her of herself. One was as dark as night and the other was an ashen brown. The sight of them filled her with an excitement that she'd never known before. Creatures like her! Oh boy!

The filly broke off into a gallop, going full tilt to the newborns... She only remembered herself when she was within a couple of feet where she drew up with a happy whinny. Oh! This was exactly what Tuck was talking about... She couldn't just run up to them willy-nilly! She had to see if they were good first and then she could be friends! "Hai hai! This One is Saga! Are you Saga's friends?" She hoped so! She also hoped she was doing this right.

"Talking looks like this!"
"Eekii eee!"
Thinking looks like this...

Ears flicked and rotated, taking in all the sounds from around the area, but it wasn't until this abysmal colt voiced words did his full attention go back onto him. He let out a humming sound, pondering over the question as his blue eyes shifted up towards the ceiling of the cave. "Nemestrinus!" He suddenly blurted nickering in joy as he turned his head down and peered at the fresian. With a snort he finally began to move, wobbling up onto his hooves a little unsteady before he stood there happily stretching out his legs.

It was then that he heard the thundering sound of hooves on the rocky ground and his gaze swept up just in time to see a brown pelted equine. His tail flicked about, still dripping with the ooze of his chrysalis and his smile turned even bigger. "Yes yes! I am Saga friend! Are you friend?!" His hooves stamped a little at the ground as he swayed to and fro as if trying to get a better feel of standing.

Ears pinned back at the foal as he answered with such gusto. Now was not the time to be silly! They had things to do, like find out where exactly they are for starters. He was informed of the others name as the sound of something approaching rumbled closer and closer until another similar foal approached, this one mottled and imperfect. At list his birthing mate had uniformity to them, as did he. But this foal? There was nothing uniform about her.

She spoke and he snorted, but the other foal, Nemestrinus as he called himself, claimed to be the friend of this Saga- horse. He, on the other hand, wasn't so sure. "I am Thanatos!" He exclaimed, stomping a small hoof on the ground. He offered nothing else - no confirmation of friendship, nothing. Just what he chose to be called.

@saga @nemestrinus

Oh glorious day! It appeared that she would be making new friends today! Or rather... she'd be making friends with one of them. The cream colored colt gave a confirmation that "yes" they were friends which caused the little filly to whinny happily. She remembered what Tuck said, that she couldn't run up to others and just touch them without asking first... but dang it! This was her friend! She wanted to touch him! "Kir! Kir! Much friend, yes! Nem-em-em-strinus!" So, she trotted right up to him and attempted to playfully tug at his little multi-colored mane before turning to the other one... Thanatos? Was he her friend too? Had he completely not heard her? She hoped so... The alternative was... was...

She could already feel the tears bubbling in her eyes at the thought of a "not friend". She remember that those that didn't want to be her friend she would have to leave. She didn't want to leave! She wanted to stay and play with both of them! "Friend? Yes? Eh? Friend? Than-an-an-a friend? Please? Kir? Yes?" She began to take slow and careful steps towards him, all but begging for a confirmation. "No want... run away..." This was mostly said to herself in a barely audible whisper as she remembered what she was taught.
