The mare was still uneasy and seemed un-trusting of him. He could not really judge as he does not know this mares history.  She introduced herself as Layali, a suiting name for the pretty mare. They ever so slowly walk towards the creek. The moon was shining, the crickets were out. It was so quiet you could hear the night critters jumping around in the tree. After some time of walking they finally made it to the creek.

 "Layali we are at the creek, go ahead and drink" the stag removed his body from hers but was still close enough to catch her if she could not stand on her own. She needed to drink to regain energy. "Layali, do you want to come to my kingdom? We have healing powers, I will need my queen to help you though." the mare was in and out of understanding and he hoped she was awake enough to understand the question. .

Jedi watched as the life came back to the mare as she drank the water. It was a sigh of relief when she gained strength, still very weak. But the life was returning. She rejected his help to be healed which he respected. He gave a nod of understanding, she did say she needed to rest and that she needed safety. He would stay with this mare until she was healed and could journey off on her own.

"I will stay with you until you are well, you will not be alone." no horse wants to be alone at night, the choice to sleep or stay alive. "Layali, will you be leaving after you are healed?" the stag inquired. He was rather fond of this mare, his heart was still caught on the golden vixen from his kingdom but this mare was close to him, he wanted to protect her and keep her safe.
