Romani
The palomino gypsy barely had enough time to truly settle back into the Edge before her peace was disturbed once more. Being stolen away for the long, terrible months that she had been, Romani had been eager to return to the misty forests of the Edge and be reunited with Jasiri and Xanthos. Had her daughter grown during her absence? Had Xanthos worried himself sick over her whereabouts? She had been so very eager, eyes alight with heart-felt joy... And yet, upon returning home, Romani had found no sign of her little family. They had not come to greet her, nor had she found them... Perhaps they had wandered off, in search for her? It was hard to tell.
Regardless, the sense of freedom and pure feeling of safety from being back in the Edge put the Haflinger mare on ease. She was grazing, pulling thin blades of grass free from the earth and chewing thoughtfully. At her side, young Kasai was sprawled out on her side in the grass, the black tip of her tail twitching every now and then. The young tiger's chest rose and fell evenly, a sure sign that the feline was deep in a dream... Perhaps of chasing a bird, or playing with feathers. Romani spared her companion a glance before chuckling softly, head shaking slowly as she ate.
Yes... It was good to be home, even if her family was not there to share in her joy.
"Romani!"
A sudden shout caused the mare's head to snap upwards at attention, eyes narrowed in keen alertness that served her as a warrior. Feeling her bond-mate's change, Kasai also snapped awake, rolling onto her belly and looking around with sleep-muddled eyes. For the briefest of moments, Romani thought that it was Xanthos who had called for her... But no, that was not her mate's kind voice.
Levi! Came a bellow from Kasai through their mental bond, the young tiger practically leaping to her paws, ears perked upwards and tail raised in excitement. Roma! Levi! Almost as soon as the cub's words floated around her head, the recognition flipped on. It was Levi! Her dear friend from the Dragon's Throat!
Turning on her haunches, the Haflinger mare ventured towards the sound of where Levi's precious vocals had come from, her pace set at a brisk trot. Together she and Kasai broke through the thickest of treelines, and there, standing in a clearing, was the silvered stag that Romani had grown to adore. As a friend, mind you, a dear friend who would always listen if she eve needed to talk.
"Levi!" Romani cried with a nicker of joy, her head tossing in excitement, "Levi, my friend, how wondrous it is to see you!" The thick-built mare slowed to a stop a few paces in front of the grullo stallion and slowly lessened the distance between them, her muzzle outstretching to brush softly against Levi's own. Upon spotting the Pegasus, Kasai let out a growl of joy as well and padded up to the stallion, her chest reverberating with a loud purr of pleasure. The tigress would never forget how Levi had let her play with the feathers upon his wings, seasons and seasons ago.
Romani smiled joyously. "How are you, my friend? What brings you to the Edge?"
