As the pale mare took him in, he saw only open curiosity in her features and took hope from it. Maybe he wouldn't taste rejection this day. Maybe she would give him a chance just as Melisma, Mazarine, Nasa, and Cerosi had done. He didn't have a lot of expectations at this point so any sense of acceptance was enough to make him feel again. Anything was better than the pain at this point. When he stopped a distance from her, he was pleasantly surprised when she chose to move closer to him. Obviously she wasn't a mare who was shy or scared of stallions and she didn't seem to sense any need to keep her distance from him, something he still wasn't used to. After all, he wasn't a small stallion by any means so he was used to most mares being intimidated by him and judging him as a monster by appearance alone. He thought he might even have sensed some concern from her as she studied his own features but when she spoke, it was enough to distract him. She gave her name as Chimeras and he dipped his head in acknowledgement. "Pleasure to meet you, Chimeras." Her voice was soft and soothing, like a soft breeze across his skin that made him sigh softly without even realizing it. She was like a balm to to a wound and it calmed him. She admitted that she knew about the Common and what it was about, saying she used to call the islands her home. His ears pricked in curiosity at that. So did she come here hoping to be forced somewhere? Was she just desperate for a home or was she hoping for a kind stallion to find her first? He gave the offer and waited patiently while she thought it over. He knew it wasn't like offering her a place in paradise or lush green meadows, but to him, the desert had its own form of beauty. Maybe she could see that, too. Finally she spoke, saying she would like to visit and see if she could call it home. It was the same answer Nasa and Cerosi had given and he gave another soft smile and nodded in response. "That is more than acceptable. I could escort you there and show you around. There are other mares you could meet and just let me know if you need anything." He knew it wasn't the full acceptance some might give at the mention of a home but he would take what he could get. The desert wasn't for everyone and he didn't have as much confidence in his own skills to lead since losing so many. Once she gave her confirmation, he would lead her to the water for the short swim to the desert. He would pick whatever pace she wanted to go at so she didn't feel rushed and if she wanted to stop to grab some grass or water, he would wait patiently.
