The Rules
  • There will be no fraternizing with enemies. If you put yourself knowingly in danger, don't expect a rescue.
  • We are only as strong as our weakest link. See to it that you are getting stronger in some skill that is useful, whether it is battling, recruiting, charming, etc.
  • The King and Queen have final say in all matters.

He knew it wasn't heard of to allow a mare into your herd and then just let them leave whenever they wish. Sure, any of his mares could go visit their family in other herds or explore as they wished but they called his herd home, or at least he hoped they did. Seeing the wariness of both the mares made him think of the new idea on the spot. Maybe it was a new way to do it but he didn't mind opening his borders to kind mares who could help build his herd but only if they chose to. Maybe they would see another herd they liked more or meet a stallion who stole their heart. That was always a possibility but Cain would risk it cause any mare was worth it. If the Desert was the right fit for them, if HE was the right fit for them, then he could hope they saw it too and let him know they want to call it home. If not, he would wish them all the luck and hopefully keep some semblance of a friendship in case they ever need anything.

This was a new beginning for him and he wanted to pursue it with everything he had. Mares were not belongings to him, not anymore. There was a flash in Cerosi's eyes like she thought it a trick but Cain stayed calm and neutral, not wanting to give her any reason to doubt him. If she turned him down, then he would bid her good bye and that would be the end of it. He tried. The gray mare looked over to Nasa for a moment as if to gauge her reaction before she looked back at him and said it was a kind offer. His ears pricked, sure there was more to it than that. She then said she would like to accompany him to the Desert and his smile was friendly and hopeful as he nodded in acknowledgement. Maybe they would see the beauty in the Desert that he saw and give it a chance. When Nasa decided to make the trip as well, he took it upon himself to escort them and went at whatever pace they chose, not wanting them to feel rushed.

He was sure they were tired from their swims to the mainland so he stopped for breaks as necessary, letting them take their time and socialize or explore as they wanted. He only watched over them, picking back up the familiar trail to the Desert once they were ready to move on. His gaze swept to Nasa as she shivered, her black coat still wet from the ocean. "The warm air of Salem will dry you off in no time, Nasa. I hope you find the climate to your liking." He said with a soft smile. Once they made it to the shores of his home, Cain took a look around, the glow in his eyes showing his pride for his home, even if others thought of it as a wasteland. It was filled with oases and had shelter and cool water, even an underground cave with a spring. What else could you ask for? He didn't want for much and it suited him, no matter his hardy breeding that made others think of a cold climate.

He was used to the sand pens he was imprisoned in for years. The hot sun beating down on his back was an old friend and the scarcity of food and water not a stranger to him, either. He didn't have an easy life but he would make the most of it now by sharing the wealth with others. When Nasa thanked him for sanctuary, he dipped his head once more and pricked his ears. "No problem at all, Nasa. I hope you like it here but if your heart takes you elsewhere, I'll understand. Would you like a tour or do you want to explore more on your own?" He glanced between the two mares, giving them time to think on their answer. He shook out his coat and flicked his wet tail against his flanks as he waited.
