Libertys Ride

The mare, leaderess of the Horse Clan, galloped into the terra of Free Spirit's friends. Many different and new scents filled her nares as they flared wildly, straining to regain enough breath to continue onward. Soon, as she reached the middle of the terra, she skidded to a halt, sending white powdery snow all over the place. She took a few steps forward and reared, pawing at the freezing air. She bellowed out loudly with a screeching neigh, calling for Nhosh or any of his herdmates. She then stood there, awaiting someone's appearence. She had something very important to tell Nhosh about.

Nhosh

The stag heard the call, and at once he came charging across the frozen grounds. Her scent came to him on the wind before he arrived on the scene, and he knew that this was a friend. Slowing as he neared her, Nhosh lifted his head and gave a nod to greet Libertys Ride. However, instead of two giant antlers being tilted her way, the stag's head was bald of the bony appendages. In fact, his entire herd had lost their antlers by now, though it wouldn't be long before new ones began to grow again. Hiding the slight embarassment that his temporary 'baldness' always brought to him, the leader spoke out, "You're of the Horse Clan, right? What brings you here."

Nhosh

Nhosh turned his head to the side, his ears swiveling in that direction as a distant sound came to them. "I'm sorry, I must heed another call. Please, follow me though. I'm sure you have important new or business to speak of." The red deer now headed away, responding to a call by a stallion in another part of his terra.
