Long before the others had appeared their foot fall told of their approach. Dark, angular ears turned toward the sounds of the hoof falls and large nostrils flared as Rem tested the air for the scent of riders. Though by the time they managed to come within sight Rem seemed to be doing little than grazing as he watched them from the corner of an eye. He hoped they would simply pass him on by and leave him to continue about his way. There was much of these lands left to explore and he had yet to find that which he sought.
His large head lifted as they approached with ears pinned forward in a curious and welcoming expression. His sides shook as he whinnied a greeting to the other horses, though he eyed the rider with more caution than he regarded his companions. A few swishes of his tail was all that hinted at his mild annoyance and was casual enough that anyone might dismiss the gesture as trivial, as it was.
The pale eyes of the wolf seemed to search for another as if he suspected the large horse was not alone, but Rem had come without his canine companion. It was easier this way and no one would suspect that the horse alone was gather any sort of useful information. It was not as if he could relay his findings to his predatory counter part anyway, but that hardly made his knowledge useless. He would not waste his time being here if that were the case. Rem only looked directly at the mounted canine as it spoke what he recognized as one of the simplest of greetings. Dark eyes regarded the creature with little interest before Rem lowered his head and resumed his idle grazing as he turned away from them. Perhaps they would take no further interest in him and would be about their way. Leaving him to be about his own way.
