Oliver has been busy thinking.
The only change in his behaviour is that he's been slightly more distracted, mostly notably when he shows up to practice fighting in the morning. The only change in his routine has been to spend more time at the nearby farm Talking to Huxley, making sure he plays nice with the other horses. While he can spend a lot of time doing that, he can't legitimately spend all day doing so.
He happens to be strolling outside today near the farm, having finished patrolling the fields. An old Bible is held loosely in one hand, but he's not reading it. (He told himself he'd try to learn about this land's religion. But what can he do when he can't force himself to read past the first few verses?)
Right now he's intently watching a circling hawk. He holds a hand out to it, then makes it circle first in one direction, then the other.
