Devil's gonna get you if I don't first


The cool breeze blows the stranger's scent heavily into his nostrils. Warsaw snorts, but remembers something. He couls recall smelling this stallion, but he could not remember where. It was not recently, but a long time ago when he first arrived back on the islands. He must have arrived when this stallion was departing. Maybe they had even passes each other and not known. The stallion speaks, saying his parents rules the Inlet for three years. He chuckles because he has had the Inlet going on four years now, but finally he says a name that rings a bell.

"Freya...that is a name I know. When I arrived back on the island she lived in the Forest and visited me once on her way to the Bay with her young son Baldr." He could vivdly picture the mare strolling into his home. Freya had been older than himself, but her beauty was still radiate enough to capture his fancy. He wouldn't tell Bjorn what all he had said to her or how he tried to charm her. He had challenged Persephone for Freya and won, but she sent over herself instead if Freya. That is what started this whole mess he was in now.

He did remember saying something like she used to be Queen of the Inlet so then this stallion was once a Inlet Prince when his family ruled. It was becoming more clear there was something about this island that draws its old owners home. Time and time again most come to him claiming to have lived here once. He knew this stallion might want to take his island away just as he was sure there were others out there with the same goal. Maybe he could turn those tides with this lad for one less enemy. "Freya told me she was an Inlet Queen once upon a time. So does that mean you were the Inlet Prince?" He asks the stallion with a smirk. Maybe there was a bigger reason why he had stolen away Tavas. A Prince and a Princess.

This meeting of the grullo stranger was taking a very different turn than he ever expected. Typically, Warsaw would be pushing a stalliom off his island, but instead the winning of a battle against Requiem sparked inspiration. This stallion seems to have some kind of interest in Tinuvel, possibly even being born here, so Warsaw assume he would be back to stake a claim on the land after he got Tavas set in. He couldn't risk losing his Monarchy that was still in it's early stages. His kingdom needed to grow and that only way it could was with stronger members holding it afloat. It was obvious to him now that Requiem was a bad choice, but here he had some real Tinuvel blood awaiting his proposal.

"It seems you easily defeated Requiem for the one mare I told him he could never lose. I could use a stronger stallion gaurding the Bay to keep my kingdom thriving. I must tell you I have many enemies and different ideals most don't agree with, hence the many enemies. There is a few mares here who think they can take a stallion's role and run a whole herd themselves. I don't agree and it is my aim to knock that new tradition down and replace it with how things should be. Bring things back to the natrual way of life where stallions fight each other for mare's not mares defending stallion-less herds. They are not like a band of rouge mares either, but they try to structure their herds just as a stallion would. Some even have stallions living there that bow to their mares." He finds it disgusting and so unnatural. He watches the stallion to see what his reaction might be.

"We could walk over to the Bay right now and announce to Requiem that you are now taking over as lead under your new Monarch King, but you have to pledge loyalty to my rule. I can't have you plotting to take me down later." He was taking such a big chance on this stallion, but fate has brought him here today. Fate has brought the son of Greta and here he was offering him leadership just as he had once offered Freya his Queen position. She didn't take such a position from a stranger with old style ideals, but what would her son say? "If you can be loyal to me my friends will be your friends, but my enemies will be yours as well. I need someone stronger holding down the Bay to put my mind at ease and I need Tavas safe and close to her mother to keep my Queen sane." His eyes roll. Surely Bjorn would understand how mares could get sometimes about their young daughters being tossed around by stallions.

"If you agree to accept myself as your King and accept my cause, the Bay is yours to grow your herd and settle your family's name. I can also offer my neice Ysabel to start your herd as well as allow you to keep Tavas as long as you keep her safe and happy." Tavas, his little Princess he has raised since she was very young, was precious to him. She had to be kept happy and she deserved a Prince rather than what he has previously given her as a mate.
