Ochre eyes settle on the pure white mare at his side, he waits quietly for her reaction the land that spread out before them. He was pleased to see that there was a glint of astonishment within those dark chocolate eyes. "Thank you. You belong here." He finds himself gazing at her, while she takes in everything around her. Her voice breaks the silence once again. How long have you been in this land? A deep sigh escapes his lips. "The Inlet has been mine for two winters now. I came here searching for something different." He chuckles, quietly reminiscing about his home, it was just like Tinuvel. "It is funny, I came here to escape my father. I ended up here on Tinuvel, where it is just like my old homeland. Cold winters, dark pines, and mountain peaks."
He focuses back on the beautiful scenery before them, when her voice breaks the silence between them. I apologize for my rudeness in the commons earlier. Surprised, he swivels his head back towards her, he had not expected an apology. "Eviline, I must apologize as well. I could of explained better about why I was there, but I wanted to escort you home quickly. This time of the year, the Lagoon stallions lurk in the shadows, waiting for mares. They would of seen your beauty and tried to take you back to the Lagoon... Trust me, you would not want that." He sighs, he had never been to the Lagoon, but had experienced their coldness first hand.
His dark eyes settle on her once more. "Would you like to see the rest of the Inlet?"
Dögun
We'll ride in the gathering storm
