Callahan had never really ventured back to the main land since he had taken over the Savannah. Despite a slight influx of visitors he hadn't managed to attract anyone to call the place home. He attributed it to his lack of effort, however, the filly abandoned on his doorstep had taken precedence over going to the commons to try and encourage people to call the Savannah home. Despite it all, he found himself in the cool waters making the long swim to the central island. After everything was said and done perhaps he had been too serious and unwilling to let himself visit the more carnal side of life. For a moment he considered just charging over to a mare and claiming her to the Savannah and in part perhaps he would though, could he truly bring himself to force someone to stay? That was the question that racked his mind until his hooves touched the sand.
Blue eyes caught a glimpse of all the individuals that gathered here, it was almost overwhelming to keep his temper settled from playing of the testosterone of the other stallions snaked about the commons. It didn't take long for his eyes to land on a pretty mare that had the most alluring eyes and looked all the part of a graceful woman. Perhaps with little thought and even less hesitation he trotted over to her and nipped her flank. It was a bit on the nose, but he wouldn't risk the chance of another stallion barging in and snaking her off to some island and in truth she would never be treated as a captive so what was there to lose?
He quickly snapped himself out of his thoughts and prepared for a nip or kick to find purchase. Though prepared for a fight he linered perhaps a bit closer than what is considered respectful for strangers. When he could be assured he wouldn't catch a kick or bite he utters a question to sate his curiosity, "What brings a beautiful woman to a place such as this? I would offer my company though I suppose I have imposed it on you either way." He wouldn't usher her away to the Savanna. After all he just got here and the gorgeous mare probably wouldn't fancy that either. Not for nothing, he at least was making an effort to being more life into his, well their, home.
