Well. That wasn't very dramatic.

The thoughts are as blunt as the spoken word, and a sigh slips past the peahen's iridescent lips. Her mood has shifted from determined to annoyed, and her desire to find the wolf is heightened as she forces her colorful form past the entrance. The mare has reached her goal at last, yet now that she is here, she does not feel any sense of accomplishment for fulfilling her promise to her tribe. All she feels is tired.

The warrior's usual fluid gait has reduced to a lilt, and her porcelain naves quiver with every breath she takes. Veins spread across her hide like the cracks in the dry earth underfoot. The wings that grant her flight hang loosely at her sides, and even the beautiful feathers at her wither wilt as if they are dead. She is the very image of exhausted, and she is not ashamed to look the part. At least not until the red and white filly parades into view.

Almost as soon as the child speaks, the mare has lost her patience with her. Her fatigue cannot compare to the annoyance that sparks in her breast when the equine's enthusiastic introduction stabs at her ears. As fierce of a woman as she is, the peahen has never yearned for a child of her own. If it had been her choice at birth to choose a sex, she would have chosen to be born male. The life of a bachelor suits her much better than the life of a maiden; her desire for violence and war is far greater than any desire for romance or motherhood.

It was because of her distaste for children that she does not halt to return the greeting, but instead to relieve her legs. A long pause ensues after the arabian's words fill the air, and the elder doe extends the silence by preening the feathers of one wing. Her comfort is her number one priority, and she really doesn't care if she offends the girl or not, and as if to stress that point the peahen plucks out a blue feather and spits it on the ground. She watches the delicate object drift slowly downwards before speaking.

"My name is Bellona, of Arto. I have not heard of your hiding falls, but have you heard of my wolf boy?" Amusement flashes briefly across her orange eyes, but the look is soon replaced by a cunning glare. What the wicked fae had intended to be a taunt has instantly become a bargaining chip, and she adds on in a sugar-sweet, lilting tone, "Would you like that? That feather? I'll give it to you, if you help me find my wolf."

The warrior struggles to remember other identifying features about him, lashing at the earth with a dark hoof as she does so. Pain lances up her marked leg at the same instance as the wolf's promise fills her mind.

"He had a dragon, and he came from a place known as the Foothills. Can you take me to him?"

"blah blah blah."
