WC:335 | Pts: 3 – Ooc.
Axelle and her horse quietly followed Alder toward his cabin. She was completely lost in the new territory, and if it weren’t for Alder, she would be helpless. The group went around a turn, and then up a slope and then his cabin came into view shortly after. Axelle smiled as she gazed at the small house – it fit him just right. Well, she thought so anyway – from the short while she knew him. He was an out-doorsy kind of man, she thought.
As the approached, Alder pointed out the post and went towards his house. She let him go and led Couer over to the post. The horse stood calmly and let her tie him to the post, and then dipped his nose into the bucket of fresh water. Axelle rode him bareback, so there was no use fussing over an uncomfortable saddle. Axelle’s rear didn’t think too lightly of it, but she didn’t mind the subtle pains here and there.
When Alder returned and pointed to the firepit, Axelle nodded, but stayed by her horse for a moment. She petted the fur on his back, kneading the muscle there to make his back feel better from the ride. She didn’t know how horses felt carrying a 200 pound Luperci on their back, but she figured it was a relief when she got off. So, she gave him a minute’s worth of massage and then went over to Alder’s firepit. She kneeled a safe distance away from the flames, and slid to her rump from her legs, leaving them bent and to the side of her. She held herself up with her right arm. ”Couer. It means heart in French, my heritage.” Well, half of it. Her mother was the one that was French – her father, Swedish and Persian if she remembered correctly. She was a bit of both, she guessed. Though, she took her French heritage more seriously as she thought of herself more like her mother than anyone else in her family.
