Salome said, exasperation clear in her voice as her mother, once more, dug through her bag to make certain she'd have everything she needed for the carriage ride to school. Unlike many of the other students, she didn't have a trunk that would need to be loaded, her trunk would be travelling with her horse. At the thought of Moonshadow a sigh parted her lips, she hated that her beautiful mare was travelling separate from her but there was nothing to do about it.<br/><br/>She'd make it a point to visit the stables as soon as the welcoming and sorting were over to make sure Moonshadow was settled. Before if she could manage it, but that would depend on how many students this carriage had to pick up and how swiftly it traveled.<br/><br/>Watching the door open she turned and hugged her mother tightly. The woman could drive her mad, but she loved her fiercely and would miss both of her parents and even her annoying little sisters! "I'll send Hestia with a letter every week. I can't promise they'll be long but I'll send one," she said and climbed into the carriage before her mother could reply. She didn't want her mother to see the brief burn of tears in her eyes. She'd never been away from her family like she was going to be now, and while she was incredibly excited to start school, she was already homesick as well.<br/><br/>Moonshadow. She'd feel better when she could throw her arms around her gentle mare's neck and nuzzle her soft coat. A piece of home was coming to school with her after all.<br/><br/>Settling into her seat she opened the bag she and her mother had packed and pulled out a small medium sized container - you had to love charms that made a small bag bigger on the inside! - that held fresh strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, and blueberries from her grandmother's garden. She also drew out a small sketch pad and pencil and began drawing the smooth sure lines that would, gradually, take the shape of her beloved mare Moonshadow. She didn't hide what she was doing, anyone who glanced over her shoulder would see a variety of horses drawn on the page she had open and would quickly realize the young girl had a particular love in her life for horses.<br/><br/>
