The needle moves gracefully; Atrox, any - Leilan - 02-06-2020 We got older and I should have known that I’d feel colder when I walk alone Hyaline. The mountainous kingdom had sheltered him once, until his ambition to be something, or rather be something else or whole, had brought him a quest that took him away. Kensa had been fine with it; but before the year was over, his promise to return to remain her lieutenant was forfeit. It left him wandering and homeless once more, though he must admit he mostly avoided the place because of the mare he’d drowned and hidden in a cave, sealed with ice and rock to prevent vermin from eating her; and hopefully just about weak enough for her to be able to bust out should he not be around when she woke. In fact he wanted to be nowhere near her when she woke. But duty calls, somewhat. His daughter was still out there, even though she could take care of herself very well. At the very least he should see if she had done that, indeed. With a deep breath, the ice-scaled stallion steps up to the border, then hesitates - should he even call? He could pretend it was still home - but then he figures since he’s not inclined to stay longer than necessary, he might as well. He announces his presence confidently, then idly walks along the border, wondering who he’ll find. After all, a name is all he got.

Both home and not, he becomes increasingly curious as to who lives here. It seems quiet, but it had been quiet under Kensa’s rule as well - seemingly quiet, that was. Perhaps right now it lacks that little tension that promised that the Hyaline residents might still emerge and do something completely weird - like actual horse hunting, or hoarding girls to exchange for gold later - but with a little incentive, perhaps something fun might still happen. It takes some time until a figure finally emerges; and a cat at that. Still, the movement is purposeful in a way that doesn’t indicate a hunt, which would be odd for a cat but less so for a shifter. So when the male indeed shifts into a horse shape, the dragon stallion simply nods to him until the question is asked. ”Probably, if you’re willing to share some information.” His tail sweeps lazily past his hocks, estimating the other stallion for a moment. Then, he rolls his shoulders. ”When Kensa still ruled, I put a dead woman in a cave. She’s immortal though; I should like to check on her, see if she’s waking up yet.” Provocative, as is his style just because he likes to see how the other reacts. ”I also figured now would be a good time to ask if my return was still anticipated. I told Kensa when I left, but someone took over her leadership before my year away had ended.” he grimaces a bit, though there is no disgruntledness in his eyes, no malice or disappointment in his voice. It just is. He awaits the black’s answer patiently; if he can’t be bothered to answer or let him in, then that’d be an answer in itself as well, he reckons.
