It had taken much effort to get from the Throat back to the Meadow. But Myrrine had done it, not without Cerin clinging to her side of course. He had seen her fall, the weakness that overcame her from the exertion of running to his home to warn others. The duo had made it back in time to hear the God's second task, and before she knew it a pail was at her hooves. Slipping it into her maw gently, she looked to Cerin, grinning merrily with slightly tired eyes, before tenderly rubbing her head along his shoulder in a comforting way, to reassure that she truly was okay. He was so kind to her, attentive in every move she made, not once wavering from his new task of bodyguard. She found it to be rather sweet, and couldn't help but not mind his pestering. Soon she was taking the lead, keeping close to the silver boy's side of course, smiling and humming as they went into the direction of the Edge, where there was always water.

Because of her last little episode, she decided to pace herself, keeping to his side and simply enjoying the view and pleasant company. In the silences she would continue to hum through the pail's handle, before she suddenly had a question. Wondering how to ask, she stopped, dropping the container with a light thunk, before looking into those green eyes she'd grown quite fond of. This feeling she had whenever she looked at him, it reminded her of the feeling she had towards Ilios. It wasn't exactly the same, the feeling with the teal boy was hotter, full of a little more fire and excitement and mystery. With Cerin... it was calm, serene and magical. It embraced her soul tenderly and enticed with tender kisses, giving her nothing but a warm feeling that she didn't want to go away. She didn't know what it all meant, but she loved it all the same, and her eyes wavered only slightly to look him over, before she was piping up at last,"I'm sorry for being so rude, but I never did get your name. I know you can't really tell me, but there must be some way I can know!"

Her eyes shifted down to the beloved talisman upon his neck. A little doll, wrapped in silk with long strands of hair draping from its scalp. She had never seen him without it, making her take note that it was something he cherished deeply. She wondered if it had connection to his past, or even his name, but she had already asked one rude question for the day, she wouldn't pile on another. Instead her muzzle was lightly sniffing the specimen, looking it over more closely before smiling, pulling back and giggling to him lightly. She couldn't help but feel happy when she was with him, and the giggles were something she no longer had control over. Realizing she had spent too much time chatting, she squeaked, springing up and instantly turning back towards the direction of home,"We have to go! I've wasted too much of our time." With that she was trotting, keeping a delicate pace with the pail swinging to and fro in her jaws, clunking every so often against her neck.

Before she knew it she had arrived to her home, the shattered wall towering above her in its faded glory. With a simple jump she was over it and on the other side, looking back to Cerin expectantly for him to follow. Once she was sure he was following, she was on the move, keeping a pleasant pace all the same, before finally finding one of the numerous streams in the lands. The fresh smell of pine filled her senses as she dropped the bucket into the waters, letting the cool liquids fill it to the brim, before she was pulling it out and setting it aside. Once finished, she waited for Cerin to complete his task, attentive to him with that same kind smile.
