Feeling the young filly's stare, Ravenwing's ears flicked back slightly. She knew she wasn't much to look at, especially during such a spare Winter. It was likely that the filly hadn't seen anything like her before; from what she'd heard, horses in a herd tended to do well, and even grew fat on sweet grasses. It sounded like Heaven to her, and was part of the reason she was aiming to join a herd. That, and for protection. She wasn't strong, but fast, but fleeing at full gallop could only go so far... quite literally.
The Mare felt a smile tug at her mouth, seeing how excited such a simple answer seemed to make the yearling. The little filly was beginning to smile, quickly growing into a wide, excited beam. The black mare withheld a grin and a laugh, finding her spirits picked up just by being around such a happy little thing. She was given a better view of the filly's pretty wings, fluttering at her side, seeming to bend the air around them due to lacking any color. This up close, she could see the beginnings of horns on the filly's head, little more than tiny nubs, still covered in velvet.
Seeing a frown appear on the filly's muzzle, she cocked her head in confusion. Had she said something wrong? Was the filly not a part of Nerine. She opened her muzzle to thank her for the welcome, before the filly kept speaking, seeming downcast. Not a herd? She wondered. However, the filly quickly clarified, and she nodded. A kingdom... not a herd? That was odd. But still, a kingdom was still a gathering of horses, and she could make do with that. "Ah, I hadn't heard. I'd always assumed all groups of horses are known as herds." She felt slightly embarrassed, knowing it showed her rogue heritage. She'd always heard of herds, and bands, but never kingdoms.
She felt a strong sense of relief when the Filly offered for her to stay, and she bowed her head gratefully. "Thank you so much, I cannot say how much of a relief that is." Although she couldn't help but to wonder, did the filly have the authority to invite her?
