It wasn't a hard decision for Aten to make when Ruan left and headed back to Taiga. After all, he'd said he wanted to return and see what had become of the place he called home ever since he was forcibly separated from his older sister. However, it seemed Ruan wanted to go on ahead, so Aten started to trail after him at a walking pace and letting the other stallion do his own thing.
It took at least a day of full travel, without stopping, to reach Taiga, but Aten wasn't in a huge hurry. He would hurry up if something else bad happened, but for right now, he felt safe. He didn't stop for long on the way, only for brief periods to have a small bite to eat and drink from any source of water he found as long as it was safe to do so. When he arrived in Taiga, the sun was already well into the sky. It was easy to spot the stallion standing on the small hill that outlined Taiga's border, and Aten's ears went forward when he heard Ruan say his name.
The golden stallion kept his pace at a walk as he neared Ruan, stopping a few feet short of the other's personal space so he wouldn't intrude. He dipped his head in a show of greeting and respect, "Hello Ruan." His gaze drifted past the stallion, sweeping over what he could see of the Taiga. He smiled softly, his eyes growing melancholy.
"I am glad to see the kingdom has recovered..."
