The boy walked beside the long nose of the house. His black and white blazed head touched his cheek, playful and even bored with the city like surroundings. Hawthorn wished for open fields, space to run and stretch his long, long legs. But Alder asked him to calm down and patient. In time they would return to the forests and they would be able to move much larger. The wolf walked slowly as he took in the sights, the scent of the ocean heavy with salt and masking that of the werewolf that stood not too far from them. But he did not go unnoticed by the stallion. 'Thorn paused, and in the same moment he tossed his head unlike any way Alder had experienced with him. Blue eyes widened, Woahhhh, woahhhhh now. he spoke to ease the horse's distress. The lead in his hand was taught at the horse bucked, and Alder stepped back so that heavy hooves would not crush his foot-paws.
With no idea what brought his friend to such distress Alder could only work to calm the distressed stallion. Concern was written all over his face. He eased the horse back onto four hooves, but his eyes were still wild and Alder looked to where they studied. Alder looked at the stranger, silence stitching his maw together in a thin frown. A dark hand patted 'Thorn's neck in the hopes of keeping him calm, eyes locked on the gray man.
