The stallion looked surprised when he asked who he was, almost as if Cain should already know. His ears flicked back in puzzlement as he waited, feeling there must be something he was missing. If the stallion was already here and yet they'd never met, that must mean he was with Scarecrow's herd, perhaps a son? Cain had learned to give the mares some space, especially since one of them always looked at him like he breathed fire or something. The Vanner wasn't exactly sure what he might have done to earn that look but had assumed it had something to do with his past so he'd taken it all in stride, giving the herd mares their distance so they could feel safe with Scarecrow. When the younger stallion asked that he didn't know, Cain slowly shook his head, his head lowering a little in apology. "I do not, though I hope we can remedy that, now, since it seems I should." When the stallion straightened his posture, a single ear flicked forward in curiosity. He apparently was trying to make an impression now. Amusement crept into the tobiano's gaze as he watched the other. The chestnut gave his name as Aries and said he was indeed a son of Scarecrow and a mare called Libra. Relief and curiosity played in the draft's eyes as he dipped his head in acknowledgement. "It's a pleasure to officially meet you, Aries, and I apologize again for not recognizing you. I tended to keep my distance from Scarecrow's herd, mostly cause the mares seemed uncomfortable with me around." He shifted his weight a little when he said the last part, not wanting to go into the whole story about why they might have been terrified of him. When the blanketed stallion spoke again, Cain pricked his ears. "I didn't speak to him directly but I thought I heard in passing that Scarecrow was leaving the islands. I was sad to see him go, but I understand the urge for a new beginning." He took a moment to survey the younger stallion, sensing his hesitation when he spoke of staying here. The Vanner pulled a warm smile on his lips before he spoke again. "I would be honored to have you here, Aries. Scarecrow was an honorable stallion and I'm sure you'll be an asset to the Desert. I'm sure you're aware I'm even in the market for a new Second." He offered a wry smirk at the last sentence, his eyes glittering a little as he wondered if Aries would even be interested in the title. He wasn't in a big hurry to fill the slot, but was looking for those that might already be here that would be interested in showing they can handle it without having to search the islands.
