It was clear she wasn't happy and it was clear he didn't know what he wanted. She may have escaped if he had just let her be. He could only assume she would run away in hiding somewhere until Nahawi could get himself freed. Though if he hadn't shown up there was no telling what Enigma might had done to her. It was just as he warned her. She was not his, she was the Lagoon's. He had not gotten to talk with Garmr about that yet, but he wasn't sure Pan would stay long enough for him to give her any kind of protection.

It was so much work keeping mares happy!

His eyes roll as Pan asks why he couldnt let her be. His shoulders shrug, but he says nothing. He had claimed her solely to get at Nahawi from the grave. Tear down her thoughts of him. He never expected the red stallion to be alive. Pan passes by them with attitude and before he can follow another shows up. "So brave," He snickers before turning and following back back into the ocean. If Engima wanted to mess with the brave mare he could have at it.

Thranduil stands near Pan after their swim back from the Ridge. It had taken some energy out of him to have rushed around so late in the night and he had her to thank for it. At least maybe now he would be able to get some sleep. His ears twitch as Enigma shows up and his head dips to the large stallion's. This was the first time they have ever exchanged any kind of communication, but they should seeing how he had put himself up for General.

Thran himself had tossed his name up for Marauder in Khyber's absence. He didn't assume he would keep the title long if he won it considering Garmr's favor to the brown painted stallion. It did make him a little jealous. Pan's words snaps him out of his thoughts. His shoulders shrug just as they had back in the Ridge. "Well did you have fun on your little adventure?" He asks with narrowing eyes. He didn't know Enigma's plans, but Pan would most likely be put on a tighter leash. Kept away from Nahawi if he had anything to say about it.
