Vesta moved her wings back, letting her body land next to Gaucho skillfully. Her muscles pulled uncomfortably, though it was pain she was able to push down. Shifting her weight to balance on three legs, the grey mare tucked her wings in to her sides. With a focused mind she listened to the Commander's words, as well as the words of the others, before she finally came to a logical conclusion. As much as she wanted to go to battle with her new herd, Vesta was not physically prepared for such a daunting task. Swallowing back pride and bile, the mare spoke to Kri directly. "I will stay, like him," Vesta gave a small motion towards the orange brute, Hector, "and protect you--our borders, Kri."

Vesta's ears flicked back slightly, showing plainly and fearlessly her dislike for the words that rolled from her tongue. Vesta was a fighter at heart, raised by strong, mare warriors. Her muscles, however, were sore and protested her brain and heart, making her decide to stay back. Vesta had not been a member of the Dragon's Throat for a long while, but she knew they were strong (mostly from the affirming, though broken, words of Gaucho) and though any that tried to breach their lines psychotic. Wild sea colored eyes moved quickly to Gaucho then, surveying his strong and composed features. He was a primal beast, yes, but his desire to aid his family ran deeper than any lack of intelligence. "Fight val--strongly." Vesta stopped herself from finishing the word valiantly, knowing that Gaucho, most likely, did not understand the word's meaning.
