Gaucho was glad to hear that Ivezho was doing well. He didn't doubt that he wouldn't thrive under Sohalia's guidance, but to hear her affirm that he was excelling in his studies was a comfort. It didn't surprise him to hear that the fully-embered twin was quieter though perhaps brighter than Rhoa, who, seemed to be developing quite the silver tongue. They were an odd pairing, Ivezho and Rhoa, and seemed to complete each other. Then there was Zenobia ... Gaucho tossed his head slightly at Soh's mention of his younger days. Everything was so regimented in those days ... if the herd thought he was stern and strict now, they had no idea what it could be like. He remembered being taken from his mother so young that it took effort to remember which mare among the thousands he was directly related to. The thought was that, given the family-mentality, every foal was to be raised by the entire herd. No one mare was directly responsible for any particular child, but for the group as a whole. That way sentimental attachments wouldn't be made and each warrior (as almost every child grew up to be) would defend the herd equally well. In a way, it didn't bother him that Zeno was so absent. She didn't need to be raised so much as she needed life advice. But even so ... there was much he and Sohalia could teach her, things that she didn't need to experience first hand, training that they could both provide. No, it wasn't that she was without her Mother and Father that annoyed him, it was that she was without her herd, and they were without her.
" Before with Kri ... there was a Chancellor." He began, breaking his line of thinking and speaking in the common tongue, for his language didn't possess the right kind of words to describe what he wanted to propose. The ranks within his previous herd were not so complicated as were the ones the Dragon's Throat currently upheld. Similar to Sohalia he coudn't actually remember the time before they had met. How long had they been in the Throat together, unaware of each other's presence? When had Sohalia joined? Did she recall the death of Azzuen? Did she remember Levi the traitor ? Funny how such things slip your mind, like how long the lovers coexisted in complete ignorance.
" Vineserat? Sumati? Maybe time to...add that." He grumbled with the idea, for he wasn't sure who would take such a place. However the concept was clear enough in his mind: a position that could only be appointed by the Khal and Khaleesi, that is, the Sultan and Sultana of the Throat. In that regard the position could not be challenged for, the Chancellor would serve as their appointed right-hand aid, and serve as a Tier 1 member of the herd if only slightly lower in power than the leading pair. " I warrior. You diplomat-" 'Diplomat', a word suggested by Mara. "-Chancellor handle day-to-day."
Vineserat; Remember?
