She was still new to the herd. Feeling more like an outsider looking in. But that she was used to, back in the land of her birth she had been the outcast. The scorned. Judged for the blood that ran through her veins. The offense of a noble and a commoner. Above all her mother hadn't been of the approved breeding not just status. An outsider herself with the Percheron that had laced her veins. Over the years she had become accustomed to mistreatment. And learned to fight with words more than her hooves.
While she could scuffle decently - back home her biggest attribute had been that it was mostly those untrained - and the fact she was taller than a number of the colts and fillies that she had grown with. After all. The common height of the people of the sand village she hailed tended to be about fifteen hands. Sixteen hands was generally considered tall... The fact she was sixteen three. Well. Just something else that made her more of a freak. But on her travels since fleeing the desert lands she hailed - Qeren realized even
she was short next to some of these intimidating titans she'd come across.
Tiamat had convinced her with kindness to join the Basin. She felt a connection to the mare - and appreciated what she'd done for her. But really Qeren knew she should try to aquatint herself with many more of the herd. Even explore the land she now called...
home? Exploring happened to be what she was up to now. There had not been much of it beyond to the hot springs since arriving. More of a fact of recuperating from the travels she'd been on. Now, more energetic, and of good spirits, the young mare curiously explored the Basin, she had her head cocked, crafted ears swiveled forth, mismatched eyes peering up an unexplored (to her) path...
It teased of adventure. She took a step so distracted by the excitement of exploring... she tripped on a rock and gracelessly saved herself from planting herself on her face.
"Oh for fuck 'sakes." she cursed herself,
"At least no one saw your dumb ass." She wanted to eat her words when she heard a noise... head swiveling to see someone standing near by. Yup. Brilliant.
Brilliant.
"Well. So much for that you graceless cow, gold star for you. Just had to say something" Qeren mumbled to herself before speaking louder,
"Totally part of the plan. I meant to do that." Yeah. That'd be a no.
"Talk."
