He chuckles as she comments on his long name as well as introuducing herself as simply Nova. He had never met another family introudce themselves the way his did. It was a tradition his grandfather had introduced to his mother, but he had said it was passes down his generations as well. There was no telling how far back it went and maybe others used to introduce themselves this way too, but only his family kept the custom. "It is customary in my family to introduce yourself following your sire's name. It announces my bloodline, a way to carry on my sire's namesake even if I never knew him. I do expect my children to introduced themselves under my name as well just I do for my sire."

That couldn't be a horrible request, a simple announcment of his blood. Currently, he only had Celestia following his teachings even though every once in a while the girl got rebellious with him. Sabela was mute and the rest of his children were a mystery to him so right now Celestria was his only shot at spreading his name. Maybe that was why he was working so hard lately to meet others around the islands. Though he planned to calm that down during winter and focus of keeping his small herd alive. His herd that now consisted of Nova and his two daughters.

Nova's name was quite like the smokey black mare Vita Nova with whom he had met just the other day. The both were similar in their firey nature, he could see that in her blues, but they were also different. His presence with Vita had seemed more hostile like he was about to get kicked, but this Nova seemed charmable. He was glad about that especially when claiming her blindly.

Finally, the petite black mare speaks again. He is brought out of his head and into this moment which was progress for him. He finally had someone to show home that wasn't of his blood. Someone he would mate with this season. He chuckled at her jab at humor before parting his lips to answer. "Come, I'll show you the way home." Following his words, he proceeded to turn and wall towards the shoreline of the commons. He stopped frequently to be sure Nova followed and he didn't step into the water until she reached the shore with him.

The swim was long and the water only grew more cold as they neared Tinuvel. The thought hit him that the little black mare may not even be able to withstand the frozen Inlet, but he was determined to take her home anyway. He could warm her up this winter with a child in her barrel. The island came into veiw and he directed Nova towards the Inlet. God forbid she would wind up in the Bay and learn some unappealing things about him.

Warsaw pulled his heavy weight out of the freezing ocean and waited for Nova to do the same. Once she was out of the water and safe, he shook the access water from his coat and banners. He then turned inland and with a large grin, welcomed her home. "Welcome to the Inlet."
