Hector

Hector watched the smudge of black in the Oasis for a little while, atop one of the smaller orange cliffs, wondering whether he should go down and introduce himself. She seemed to twitch every so often, as if she was waiting for someone to suddenly jump out at her, a mare not really in tune with her surroundings. Perhaps she was a new recruit recently brought in from the Threshold, struggling to figure out her next move in a new land. Hector remembered being like that once, just a lad in new surroundings, the bustle of others as he tried to fit in the best he could. Eventually, he found his calling as a warrior and flourished under his new found responsibilities, finding enjoyment in honing his skills and admiration for other warriors with much more skill than he. It occupied his mind and with the new addition of Veci, the hybrid was finally beginning to find a little more stability. Of course, he always wanted more and had his gaze set on bigger things, but for now he was content with his progress so far.

With that in mind, the soldier leapt from the cliff and glided down to the oasis to greet the jittery ebony mare. Veci had disappeared, no doubt fishing for something to scare or up to no good. It seemed Hector always suspected the worst of his friend, but always in a fond light. He could not imagine his spectre behaving any other way. Upon landing, he noted her petite size and rough coat with wings like that of a crow, perhaps the most intriguing thing about her was the purple eyes. He concluded she was not shockingly beautiful like Daenerys was, draped in silver and gold, with a sculptured Arabian build. However, their eyes were similar in shade and that alone startled him for a few seconds. He had never seen another mare with eyes like hers until today. Gathering himself quickly, he proffered his head in greeting, clumps of orange mane falling forwards down his neck as leonine tail happily swished from side to side. Slowly, he began to approach the mare, scared she might suddenly bolt at any minute.

"Sorry if I am intruding miss, I have not seen you around here before. My name is Hector, who might you be?" He asked sincerely. Stopping a polite distance away from her as fiery pools lit up brightly. The stud had spent a long time in just the company of Veci, which he didn't mind and quite enjoyed, but he had to admit it was nice to have the chance to speak leisurely to another if only it lasted a few moments. She might indeed prefer to be left alone, but he hoped to know the purpled eyed girl's name at least.
