Ink appreciated the man's comments. The Trovato boy had grown up caring for horses, knew every trick in the book to coax them into good health and happiness. The fact that Vinatta lacked any others who knew these tricks made Ink wonder just how long their herd had gone without proper care. Well, we're here now. Jerri and I will make sure every horse and hooved critter has the love and attention they need. He grinned almost stupidly, rubbing his hands across Jerri's face playfully. The mare tossed her head and mouthed his hand just as gently, whickering affectionately.
He glanced over as Nier tended to his little foal. When was the last time you took him out for a run, Niernan? He'd just taken Jerri out- the mare needed a break and wouldn't be let out again for a little while at least. However, if the foal hadn't gone out yet today, now would be the perfect time. The sun was just high enough to be warm and the grass was sweet with dew.
