Atop a cliff, against a vast orange and blue back drop, stood the vibrant form of Hector. Wind whipped and played with his now grown mane, he lacked the tools here in Helovia to keep it cut in the military mane style of his old home. Maybe if he found a unicorn willing, he'd chop it back to it's normal cropped appearance. The Soldier couldn't decide if he preferred it long or short, but that trivial debate with himself would have to wait as the call of his Leader rang out across the land. Hector's ears pricked and relief flooded through his body, it seemed the arrogant beast who dared to challenge their fierce leader had fallen. Such a foolish act. Wings unruffled and Hector turned to make flight but not before noticing a squealing mouse scuttle across the hard surface as a flickering hawk soared above it. Hector snorted in exasperation "Veci! Stop that, you'll give it a heart attack." The apparition was never very good, it always seemed to waver and appeared chillingly like a ghost. The bird disappeared and Hector could feel the presence of the boggart swirling around him until settling at his side.

Veci.

Where did he begin? How could he explain? Hector only wished he didn't do these stupid things when attending important things, like they were now. He danced forward and powered into a gallop, leaping off the cliff with the strength of his wings. Leonine tail flicked from side to side in motion to his flight, almost propelling forwards before he dipped back down. Gently soaring and letting gravity glide him to the surface where he found the familiar chocolate form of Kri, muscled legs supporting his landing and he bounded in to stand beside Midas. The General he remembered from a few seasons ago at a warriors gathering by the late Azzuen. The other, whose name he had just caught as being Gaucho, he didn't know but was pleased to meet with a nod of greeting. Looking curiously at his tribal markings and the snake curled in his antlers with a friendly gaze before turning back to Kri. "Hector at your command, my Lead" he answered with a hint of formality. A remnant from his homeland.

The invisible Veci gazed at each of them, prodding at their fears but remained elusive if but for a faint sense of a presence, obeying his bonded's plea for behaviour in important situations.
