Private for Regner! Set in the Mysterious Forest, roughy 4:00 pm

This time of day had come as a personal favorite, the air was cold and brisk, her breath came in clouds of steam. There was no wind to chill her bones. Yet the outdoors never seemed to close. She was out near the woods, quietly creeping around to make sure her horse was nearby. She whistled a three note tune, and heard the clip-clop of hooves nearby. Selene cooed softly in quiet Italian, not quiet loud enough to hear. She parted Uka's nose and proceeded to pull herself up over the massive back of the Clydesdale. The young hybrid had the upper hand on a beautiful view of the forest, sprinkled in frost and light snow. The cold was resented, but the sight put out for just her eyes was intriguing.

That morning Sel had remembered to take her sword and now along with her, each someway strapped to her lean back. Maybe she'd be able to bring down some game, take it back to the courthouse for someone to cook. Food wasn't something she usually got for herself, food wasn't something to be used in self indulgence, it had to be divided up equally with most of Casa di Cavalieri. The only things she seemed to take notice of were a couple of hares, with their ivory winter pelts and large ears. She managed to shoot a couple from her mount atop the horse, satisfied with her pickings, the young woman took a rest. She let Uka wander from the place they had stopped. Whenever called, he'd come running.

The trees were threadbare, clear of any leaves and empty. The bark was an ugly mottled grey that wasn't do easy on the eyes. The youth resented even the unpleasant things of winter. Part of her couldn't wait for spring to come, to see green shoots popping from a dead ground. So see color once again. The young woman let herself half sit, half lay leaning against one of those ugly trees. Quietly daydreaming and thinking. Her thoughts often went to Hadley, the muscular and gentle hybrid she met a while ago. Whom she had confessed and then felt like an idiot for her little secret given out. She didn't care if Uka wandered away, she'd have a blast running after him. Eyes studied the terrain around her, unsure of where she was and which way she came from.

Oddly Regner found himself relying on his four-legged forms more now that he lived in a human building than he did in his younger years wandering the wilds with his pack. Much of the reasoning behind this was, as was with most of Regner's behaviour, practicality. Regner was undeniably old and was by any measure, a very heavy dog. With an injured leg and much of his weight being in his upper body Regner was plain having trouble supporting himself on two legs over long trips, the effort of trying to do so bringing an ache to his legs which in turn made it hard to keep his balance.

Secui form was much more comfortable. The more natural form stood nearly a hundred pounds lighter than Regner's Optime and was much easier to support himself in; both allowing him to spread the weight over four points rather than two and use his much stronger forearms. Still while it was much more comfortable in this form Regner's age still showed in his slow and careful gait as he picked his way through the forest, made all the more obvious by Adelle who was literally running excited rings around her grandfather, dipping in and out of his legs as he walked along.

A scent caught in Regner's nose, that of a pack member mixed with a hint of something else, and the elderly warrior diverted his course, sniffing curiously at the scent trail. His eyes widened when he caught up to the source of the scent. The dog sitting down against a tree wasn't what caused this shock, but the animal wandering nearby.

Regner had never seen a horse up close before, long off glances of merchant convoys that he never dared to approach being the sum of his experience, and the size od the animal was surprising. Ovcharka were one of, if not the, biggest breeds of canine still alive and Regner was a large and bulky example even by the breed's standards. Regner's Secui form weighed in at slightly bigger than a medium sized bear, though he weighed considerably less, and it was rather unusual for him to actually encounter a four-legged animal larger than himself.

"Greetings." Regner offered to the other dog, gazing with open curiosity at the horse. Adelle did the same by his feet, her normal excitement at meeting a new canine delayed by equal amounts of wonder and fear as she gazed at the horse, peeking her head around from behind Regner's foreleg.
