''So long have I been waiting...''(Kalia)

[tatiana]

Tatiana{or Tati} walked through the forest. Her black horse was walking behind her. This was new territory and Tati had never been her before, she was new to this place. How strange it all looked...how diffrent from her home.

[Kalia]

Kalia saw the newcomer and jumped down from a tree branch she was sitting on. Hiding behind a tree and waiting for the girl to aproach. Once the stranger was near enough she came out of her hiding.
"Hello! You must be new to these parts! Welcome!" She smiled freiendly.

[tatiana]

Tati was a bit startled and when she lept back she upset Cleff. She quickly got to his side and brushed him soothingly. ''Yes. I am. So is Cleff here. My name is Tatiana but you can call me Tati.'' She said. She whispered something into Cleff's ear that made him as cool as a small forest stream. Cleff stamped his foot once before leaning down to eat some grass...although it did not look to green for it was winter here; Cleff would eat anything though.

[Kalia]

"I'm Kalia! Pleased to meet you!" She smiled. "Sorry if I startled your Horse...I didn't mean to." Kalia looked around. "What are you doing in the middle of the forest?"

I came galloping down the trail, swearing loudly in Darium [Spanish for those who don't know] and leaning forward to encourage speed. My bay mount tossed his head and pressed on, the whites of his eyes flashing and his nostrils flared.

As I reined Saviro in once I reached the others, his hooves dragged through the dirt, leaving a cloud of dust.

"I suggest you move it. There are a couple of Assalons headed in this direction," I said breathlessly, switching to the Ancient Language. And if they didn't know what Assalons were, in a very short time they were going to get a very good view.

And with that, I pressed my steed back into a sprint.

[tatiana]

Tati looked confused. ''Assalons?'' She didn't like the sound of that. She then decided maybe it was best they head out. She climbed up onto her shetlon's back and grabbed the reins.
''Will you be okay? Maybe we can meet somewhere...'' She said, she just met her first friend, and now they would have to part, perhaps never see each other again.

Cleff stomped the ground, after all, he had been inturrupted of his dinner. He stamped his foot two more times. Tati whispered something in his ear that soothed him. He grunted and awaited his next orders.

[Kalia]

Kalia waved her hand as if to dismiss the subject.
"I've seen them before. Fought with them too...In anycase i'll see you on the outskirts of the woods up North, on the dawn of the 10th day. if we should depart.' She smiled. "Be careful"

[Jade [Maggie]]

Maybe it was just me, but they were moving pretty slow. Didn't they know what Assalons were? I snorted, which was echoed by Saviro, and stopped ahead of them.

"What are you waiting for?" Maybe they had a deathwish, but why should the horse suffer? It wasn't the Assalons in particular that bothered me. Sure they were tough, but they were so stupid that Saviro could take one single-hooved. Well... maybe not, but you get my point. Anyways, I was more worried that the Assalons might have friends. And usually monsters liked to have other monster friends, which meant there could very well be something else on it's way. I swore heavily in Darium and stared longingly at the path; but I couldn't just leave them.

[tatiana]

Tati nodded.''I shall meet you then. Farewell for now.''She said a determination clinging at her throat. She slapped the reins and Cleff rounded to his hind legs before shooting off like lightning. Though he was a near eight year old horse, he was pretty quick.

Tati had no idea who the strange person was with the horse, the one who had warned her but she had no idewa were she was going either. She let Cleff lead since obviously she was in his control now. 'Don't let me down father, guide me well...' She thought. She seemed tough at first but deep down, she was covered in fear and Cleff could sense it.

[Kalia]

Kalia watched as Tati disappeared between the trees. She looked around her and get two of her long knifes out. She'll nee them soon. With agility of a mouse she sliped into the bushes and heading North she ran between the trees. Cautious and listening to see if there was someone near by.
