Role in the film[]
Mother Pegasus is shown to be a patient and kind mother toward her family. When Peter Pegasus tries to fly on his own and falls to the ground, she quickly flies to his side and helps him up again. She holds him up in the air as he learns how to fly. When Zeus sends a thunderstorm down from Mount Olympus, she quickly leads her foals back to their nest and shelters them from the rain beneath her wings. During nighttime, she sleeps with them in the same tree where her mate rests on the higher branch.
