WC:000+ - Ephy! 8D
Sky had been working her legs again after a long time resting. And not just her. She'd taken Queen out for some excersize. The mare had been quick to recover for the most part, though she still wasn't ready for any heavy running yet. Sky took her out every morning for a walk, visiting various parts of the territory, to the borders and back to Thornbury in loops. In truth, she was just getting them both excersize. Mind you, she did take the time to actually get some scouting in during their walks, as not to fall behind on her duties.
It was a familiar howl, strong and smooth, that called her away from her planned route. She could tell it'd come from the fields nearby, so riding Queen seemed the best way to get there quickly. She mounted up and clicked the mare into action. Queen seemed more than happy to finally have a chance to run again.
The pair came onto the flowery paradise just as Ephy let out one more howl. She tugged Queen into stopping and hopped off easily, letting the horse roam after taking the time to tie the reigns out of the way. Stay nearby, okay?
Then she turned and darted towards Ephy, not stopping once she reached him, pouncing him into a tight hug. Ephraim! She cheered happily, tail flicking unevenly behind her.
She'd taken to him during the war, accepting him as a brother in arms and a life-long friend she wouldn't soon forget. They'd fought together, side by side, to earn their freedom. They'd won. Now he was proving himself to be fine and healthy for travel, visiting her in her homelands and brightening her otherwise plain day all the more.
She pulled back from the hug after a moment but kept her hands on his arms, grinning. It's so good to see you again. What brings you by d'Arte? She hoped to hear it wasn't bad news. Maybe he'd changed his mind, decided to join her pack. Maybe he'd come to visit. Either would make her happy, though the former was preferred.
