a d o r a there was a meek looking buckskin paint across the clearing that had caught adora's eye. if not for the strange symbols that marked her, it was the way she was looking her up and down. the baroness of the shores wondered what it might be that was so intriguing, but it didn't take her long to realize she'd soon find out as the two were paired with one another. swiveling gold sonars fell unto padmè's legacy, deciding to hang back for a few extra minutes to make sure that she was ready. the other seemed anxious to be here, much like she had felt on the journey to unclaimed hearts. as the rest of the pairs took to separate concerns of the clearing, adora felt it was as good a time as any to make her way over, passed the prying eyes, straight for the other with a matter of fact stride about her.
adora closed the distance between them, dipping her head in greeting. the palomino swung in to ensure the two of them were aligned, looking toward the fellow mingles goers. "salutations," she said, tone low and relaxed. "it is nice to see a ... friendly face in this place, no?" the rest of them seemed fine, surely, but the two of them were far softer than them. some may have thought that weakness, but adora didn't feel bad for it. she hoped this mare wouldn't, either. "i am adora, leader of sunset shores of the light alliance. might i know your name?"

The conversation with Lady Marmalade had not been unpleasant, though as anxious as Padmè's Legacy was feeling, she had no doubt such feelings had reflected in how she had conducted herself. Of course... it did not help that she had always struggled chatting with strangers, especially without the bolstering of family members around.
At least she now knew what it was that she had stumbled into. An event for singles to mingle. Not exactly something she would have voluntarily gotten herself involved in. Not so soon after... what she had just escaped. All she had wanted was to find out if she really had heard her brother's name spoken and if she could find him. Or his home. She had gotten so turned around since... being taken... she really had no idea where she was anymore in relation to the location she had been trying to reach. And, of course, there was the fact that she had no idea whatsoever as to whether her brother was even still ruling Sunset Shores or not. Was he even still alive? From what she had learned before the advent of nightmare experience, when she had gotten so close to reuniting with family... her father and Lightsaber Combat had been gone. What was to stop the same fate from having befallen her remaining brother as well?
Shivering at the grim thoughts to assault her mind, all too aware of just how easy it was for the worst things to happen. Giving herself a slight shake, as if the gesture was enough to drive away such dark thoughts, Padmè became aware of another mare approaching her. Much as she dreaded another conversation, she did feel relief this time. For it was none other than the femme she felt certain had uttered her brother's name.
"Salutations," the palomino overo greeted, lyrics relaxed, "it is nice to see a... friendly face in this place, no?" Though she nodded, Padmè did not interrupt as the gold-hued femme continued, "I am Adora, leader of Sunset Shores of the Light Alliance. Might I know your name?"
The casual mention of Sunset Shores, when Padmè felt like she had been searching for ages for that very place... the buckskin sabino knew not how to feel. Nor was she certain how to take the news that this mare -- Adora, as she introduced herself -- was leader of Sunset Shores. It, of course, confirmed that Padmè's beloved father no longer ruled in Sunset Shores... but what of Ares Nune? Had he taken over when their father stepped down or did he reside as a regular member? Did he even live there? Did he even still live? Padmè felt... too much in that moment. Hope, fear, longing, despair... she was not aware of the increasingly ragged quality of her breathing as she tried to comprehend what Adora's friendly greeting might mean when it came to the potential fate of her brother. She knew that she was supposed to answer, it was the polite thing to do. It was also the only way to progress a conversation so that she could learn the answer to questions that plagued her.
Unfortunately, it seemed her mind had stuttered to a halt, her tongue seemed to have cleaved itself to the roof of her mouth, and she felt barely capable of thought, let alone making any kind of intelligent answer.

— baroness of the shores ,
The painted mare before her seemed to crumble at her introduction. It was silent, at first, but as the seconds passed the other mares expression seemed to derail. With labored, heavy breathing, Adora stood there feeling utterly helpless to what was happening. To and fro could the palomino see the emotions ravage their way through the stranger, causing her to take a short step back as her sonars pressed backward into her skull. Adora was not the type to feel displaced amongst strangers, but she didn’t know this mare; with Harlan in Wild Equines, the baroness had realized quickly that she could have enemies at any turn. Alas, she could only assume that whatever this was was far from the doing of the Helkaer. She tried to play back her words to find the trigger, yet nothing to her was out of the ordinary.
Stricken with uncertainty, the mare took a short step closer, lowering her head to remain neutral. Her expression softened, trying to shoo away the confusion that was likely creasing her face. “I … am sorry for whatever I did to upset you," she said after she’d composed her own thoughts. “But I can’t help you if you won’t speak.” She offered the other a smile, tilting her head. A sudden click happened for her, realizing that she’d stated her name and title of leader of Sunset Shores. Adora might’ve been new in Wild Equines, that didn’t mean this mare was. Her sonars flickered forward, trying to find a gentle way to approach it through the buckskin’s silence. Quietly, Adora leaned in and reached for Padmè’s shoulder, lightly touching her shoulder. “I’ve been displaced a time or two enough to know that look,” the palomino said. “Are you from the Shores?”
Indi with padmè’s legacy !
