The mare looked back to the two humans for a moment before focusing on her hay once again. From where she was standing, Paks could see the beast’s swollen belly, “Wow. . .she does look like she’s ready to pop, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a pregnant horse before, so for me to say as much is saying something!”
The Ji’val looked from the pregnant mare to Derren, “I’m guessing with as much time as you’ve spent around horses, you’ve probably seen more than one beast give birth. What’s it like? I mean. . .it seems a miracle that woman could give birth and spit out a baby. I can’t imagine what it’s like for horses.”
‘My aren’t we talkative to the blacksmith Asha’man?’ Jesi appeared over his shoulder. Paks ignored her.
