Nimbus made it back to the dunes after making his claim. After another wonderfully numbing swim he wondered if he claimed properly. A nip is what he saw other stallions doing. Was he supposed to do it too? He did not fret over the situation, he had made it to the shore and his nameless mare would arrive soon too. Hopefully with her name. He thought, but again did not fret. He was in a very relaxed mood, not a worry in the world.
Nimbus turned to admire the sea and the sky. Clouds were strewn about, torn apart by the wind, and pushed together again. Waves crashed on the shore to pull whatever they could back into the water with them. A peaceful day. After recognizing that Nimbus's mind pulled in memories from his conversation with his new mare. In particular the end. She finally agreed to come with me, but it was so mundane. I hope I didn't scare away her edge with my foolishness. Nimbus ran up the slope quickly. Maybe he'd be able to see her when she got here. A thought popped into his head, where were Amour and Kahawa. The last time he saw them was a little rough and he wondered how they would react. Were they still here? He hoped so.
Nimbus was at the top of the dune by now, searching the area for any of his friends. The lightly colored mare might be rough on Amour and Kahawa, she had such a sharp tounge and never seemed to hesitate to use it. Would she think less of me for associating with the much calmer pair. As Nimbus thought this he realized he sounded ridiculous. She may think less of him, but he did not care; he just wanted to run around. Nimbus waited for someone to reveal themselves, anyone. He ran laps around the tree at the top of the dune impatiently.
