WC:424 (2 points) OOC: YAY! Big Grin



Liliana had forgotten about Heath the whole time she was picking out the horse… well actually it was the other way around. The horse just picked her out, she’d walked right up to Liliana, this horse was beautiful and when she watched as it had approached her for the first time she knew right away what name she would give her. The horse seemed to walk on clouds, it was as though every step was prearranged, which gave her so much grace… and that’s what she would call the horse… if the horse accepted. Liliana, in one of her hands she held an apple up to the horse, who took it as gracefully as she had stepped. She wasn’t a clean eater but a horse and an apple… they never usually were. Liliana smiled and put her hand up to the long stretched nose of the horse. The fur was full of dust, but it was as soft as a horses nose could be. The horse moved her head up and down, not use to such handling, but Liliana tried again when Grace settled down. This time she let Liliana rub up the bridge of her nose between her eyes. This was what she loved. Being so near the horses. Even if she wasn’t to take the chestnut mare home with her, she would have thought of this experience as one of the few best in her lives. To be able to walk around in a herd of horses and they not mind her. It was magical. She made a mental note to do it often… even if it wasn’t just this herd, there were others. And if she could do it now just as her mother had when she was alive… she’d do it too, she wouldn’t have to get a horse, just being there with them, was all that she really wanted. She kept rubbing the horses’ nose, letting their scents intermingle with one another for a while longer, before she did remember the wolf who had helped her, she could see him there with a black paint stallion. She was at awe with the nerve of the male. Stallions tended to be hard horses to handle at times, but it seemed just as Grace picked her, so did the stallion pick Heath. She wasn’t in a hurry to ask questions. She knew that in a place like this… if one is in a hurry they tended to get trampled. So it was all about ease, timing and most of all... calm.
