The Stables: Saturday morning

[vkandis_son]

Karal's first clue something was wrong was when he slid open the stable door and there was no demanding whicker. His second was the total lack of horse.

His third was the partially clothed, wide eyed young man standing in Trenor's stall

Inara had woken up early and gone for a cleansing walk. The fact that today's walk took her towards the stables on a day when she happened to have obtained a few sugar cubes, an apple, and a carrot was just a happy coincidence.

She waved when she saw Karal and Altra.

Karal actually didn't see her, lost as he was in a state of what anyone who wasn't a priest would probably describe as WTF?.

Trenor did, and he recognised her, so he went running over, sliding to a halt and standing very straight, practically quivering, because she had food! "Hi!"

[ambassadorinara]

"Hello," Inara curtseyed slightly to the young man and wondered who he was and why he wasn't wearing a shirt, "it's nice to meet you. I'm Inara."

"Inara! I know you! Is that for me?" Trenor asked, pointing at what she was carrying. It was always for him. "Please?"

Karal looked up, finally, saw all this, and quickly walked over, careful not to approach Trenor from behind. "Inara, hello. This...is Trenor," he said, giving her a look of utter confusion as he rested a hand on his shoulder. "And I have no idea how."
