Ithiel is by me!
Ithiel's bright red eyes roved over the trees. A raven cawed once and took off from his branch, flapping lazily above the treeline. Ithiel frowned -- he did not trust this bird; he knew well enough how to make use of a bird-scout. He shifted in his saddle and tilted his head back to sniff at the air, inhaling deeply. Lystra snorted beneath him, uneasy in the unfamiliar territory. The big chestnut mare was ill-accustomed to traveling over these mountains, but Ithiel had little other choice.
A second horse, roped to the first, trailed behind him. The little red roan Bairre was laden with goods, too, and could not be ridden. He was an easy-going sort of stallion, however, and did not balk at being packed with goods. The other horses in the stables were not suited to this task -- he knew the look in the Maelysa horse's eyes well enough. She had Lystra's fire and none of her temperance.
The dark-furred coyote pulled his mount to a standstill, halting her well in the neutral territory. Sliding down from the saddle, he tied Lystra to a tree after fiddling with her halter. The same was done for Bairre, though the hybrid lingered a moment to draw a large leather bag off of the horse's back. He grunted as he slung the thing over his shoulder, though he moved easily enough, trotting toward the foreign pack's border.
It was a short trip, and he stopped a respectful distance away, lingering and inhaling the thick scent of many wolves with a sour face. For goodwill and peace, said Myrika, but if so, she might have chosen a better envoy. Though capable of politeness, the dusky-furred hybrid would suffer no impoliteness from the wolves he treated with, either. Lightly armed, he carried only his sword along his hip. No quiver, bow, or dagger -- though a dagger was strapped to Lystra's saddle -- meant Ithiel felt naked. The scabbard and steel were enough, however -- any more and they might consider him a threat.
