Stranger. Just a hatchling.

The brown almost seemed to purr into Torasin's thoughts, laced with excitement of meeting yet another strange soul. So beautiful and so lost he was in distant memories that Torasin might have missed the arrival of the child, if it wasn't for her fearful shouts of concern and Kiba's keen dragon senses. The gentle Doctor of the Worlds Edge turned his gilded head away from the brightening horizon to view the child that now ran towards him. Her colouring was odd, from a distance the stallion would have thought her the same colour as himself, but the closer she came he began to spot the pinkish shade to her coat that was entirely different. Surely, one day, she would grow up to be one of the greatest beauties in Helovia. Her warm colours an attraction for any good, solid stallion. For now, however, she was just a foal and he imagined the world would be quite different through her eyes that he almost envied her youth.

As she came closer he spotted the fear in her eyes and the tears building up in their corners. It seemed she did not yet know the joys of the sea or the shore upon which it lapped. He noted a horn popping from her head for the first time and patches of roan he had missed when she was at a fair distance. He looked at her curiously for a moment before throwing back his head in golden laughter, eyes so kind when he addressed each question with a soft toned voice. "Nay little Princess the sea doesn't hurt. She soothes and heals, yet she can be a little feisty at times. She stretches far and wide, but she is not evil. She is a wild thing like the forest and the mountains." He said kindly to the dainty foal. As if feeling the need to demonstrate, Torasin lifted a hoof a flicked the water into the air then turned back to her with another gilded smile. Kiba was leaning down from his rump, trilling softly to the child as if wanting her to come try it though Torasin didn't ask. Intently watching her instead, waiting for her to enter on her own free will.

"My name is Torasin and the little ball of brown mischief is Kiba." He nodded to the dragon in introduction and received a rap from the reptile's tail for his cheek. Looking at the foal now she reminded him of his own children, four of them in total, and he felt a little anxious as to why she was out all alone. Where were her parents? Maybe she had strayed in her adventure, Torasin knew it wasn't uncommon for foals to travel around on their own though he disapproved of it. His hadn't seen his own two sons in a while but he hoped they were still together and well. For a few moments he also wished Sakura and Takura were here, they would enjoy making new friends and Torasin wished for them to have many. His innate fatherly instincts were already kicking in and he looked around the beach, checking for strangers like he was about to jump in front of the filly should one arise. Though he kept the kind, open expression on his face and awaited the child's next move patiently.
