In the stables...

[leftthecradle]

The air of the stables is thick with the scent of hay and horse. A certain Ranger is wandering down the center, looking curiously at the nametags on the stable doors as Cai trots at his side.

He is looking for one name in particular. A certain horse with a mysterious owner.

[puckishly]

No mysterious owners here.

Just a stallion out of his stall-- gray, nearly silver.

Look! He prances!

Cai staggers back when the stallion appears and does her level best to hide behind the Ranger's legs.

"Well," the Ranger says. "You certainly match the description I was given."

He stands still for a moment, simply looking the stallion over. Not only the outer appearance but reading the energy flows of the body that can indicate state of health.

"I was told the horse I was looking for would respond to the name Quicksilver."

[puckishly]

Said horse snorts a little at Cai and tosses his mane.

And prances closer!

It responds to the name of Quicksilver!

The Ranger tilts his head to the side. To all appearances this is simply a horse. A fine horse. A very intelligent horse...

...but something feels strange. He can't place his finger on it though.

A cautious step forward as he holds out a hand for Quicksilver to smell.

"Let's get a little better acquainted, shall we?"
