When had been the last time he had been here? Too long by the boy?s estimation. He had been but a child and not nearly as adept as he was now, though he had managed to meet lovely? euh? what?s-her-face? That girl that refused to be swayed by him, which infuriated him, but who was also oh so fun to irk and annoy. That had been a good day. The ivory giant did not know what brought him to the plains now, and certainly not in the middle of winter, all the grass dead and offering little real protecting from anything.

"'swear, I'sup 'ere somewhere! I buried it...uh...somewhere..." Zlata smiled as she followed the little bi colored feline around the serpent plains. It seemed he had led her all over Alacritis at this point, searching for an old relic that he had lost when he was with his family long ago.

Zlata would nod quickly, glad that he had an excuse to run off. The silver girl would raise her head, looking over the tall grasses of the field for whatever stranger she scented on the wind. She might as well find him and keep him from going after Gendry however she could. She spotted the ivory man with little trouble at all. He hadn't noticed her yet, but the girl would saunter over to him with a soft and friendly smile on her face, announcing her presence so as not to startle him. "Hello! I'm Zlata!"
