PHAEDRUS
He has stood in the shadows, looking out over the horizon, searching for something. Searching for a world far beyond his own. Ever waiting for a challenger to face him. Ever waiting for someone to call his name. Yet it never comes, His pleasantries with Ygritte had been relaxing to say the least, along with those of his herd. The kingdom had lain dead for several seasons, each hiding in their own corner recovering from their losses, and others their wounds.
Vigilant as always the moment he hears the call of his King he takes flight to meet him. Landing outside of the circle, the close knit group is almost all familiar faces. Though in the manner of meetings he does not acknowledge anyone in particular. No he instead focuses his attentions to the King. And now apparently a queen as well. As much as this is a surprise, the following one is even more so, though not a bad one in the least. He bows his neck towards the royal family acknowledging them with respect.
After this his name is called and his body warms with the compliments. Shifting he dips his head the forelock falling into his face to hide his embarrassment. Embarrassed to be pointed out, but still grateful for the positions allotted to him. Even if he didn’t feel he deserved it, he still felt the urge to do more to earn those titles, and the respect of the kingdom. Thank you, I hope to prove worthy. His guttural voice grates with the first usage of the day.
The alliances are more than a little heartening; they were beginning to build something. And if it was a friendly battle he would more than welcome the opportunity to keep limber. In fact, it was something he was already in the process of doing. Though he had been afraid to step on toes as of yet, wanting to find where they stood with the other kingdoms before initiating a true battle. The mocks were something to pass the time, keeping him sharp and alert. Learning new tricks every moment he could spare. His wings flutter at his sides. Finally taking a moment to nod at the rest of the group. His longtime friend was someone that he would need to catch up with soon. While there was no intention of him brushing the man aside time had a way of ticking by and slipping out of reach before you know it.
