I Do Believe

She was relieved to hear the birth of his line was not some gruesome tale as she had origionally thought. In fact, the description he offered reminded her much of young bucks. She simply hummed in response to the stallions detailed answer, her eyes drifting to the open grassland before them as she pondered future foals with such a stallion. She imagined a herd of her own bouncing along the field, perhaps one or two of them displaying an odd horn. Kamilah was strategic in her steps, always thinking ten cycles ahead, for the best possible life for herself and her kin. Finally drawing herself back into the conversation at hand the mare offered a single raised brow as yet another question popped into her mind. "That is good to hear. However, if you sired a herd so successfully, why are you wandering now? Were you kicked out by your harem or did you lose to a challenger?" This was an important piece of information she would need to collect in order to further her screening for a potential mate in this stallion. If he was weak and unable to protect her and their herd from outsiders, then he was of no use to her; horn or no horn. She could use him for added sentinel protection now, but the spot for lead stallion would be forced to stay open. The only thought she could hear pounding in her ears; Only the Strong Survive.

Hearing Taliesyn speak of another equine in the area, and a stallion at that, Kamilah returned her full attention to the horned male. She found it odd however, to hear of a horse living with a pack of hungry wolves. It was alarming, and sent a dangerous red flag for the female. "Perhaps we should investigate this stallion. I do not have a good feeling about a horse living with a pack of wolves. He could be in trouble." Though even if he was in danger, depending on the size of the pack, there may not be much she and Taliesyn could do for the stallion. Still, another equine in the area meant another potential member for the herd she desired to build. Lost in her plots and planning, Kamilah was unaware of the sudden appearance of companions emerging from the edges of the scene until the horned male spoke their introductions, to which Kamilah offered a small smile. "I've heard of horses taking a familiar or two. It is a pleasure to meet the both of you." Though she was certain his monkey friend riding along his back would have heard her, she found it incredibly unlikely the avian friend in the sky did. Still, her manners were solid, and she would address both introductions accordingly. She tilted her head towards the stallion once more, "Tell me, how did you come to gain these companions?"
