The meetings had mostly gone smoothly, and with the exception of Korra and Lotus butting heads, the herd seemed to get along. That was no surprise to the Ice King, though. Korra was the way she was, like a grumpy bear packed into the body of a small mare. She didn't get along with many, and her tongue wasn't always the smoothest when talking to Mauja either. But in a sense, it was good. It was good to know that both mares had pride in what they did, and from a stallion's perspective, good to know that he understood nothing at all on how their frames of mind varied and where the felt were the most useful. He'd leave those politics to the ones involved - namely, the mares. He'd just stay out of it, because he couldn't wrap his head around it anyway.
Faelene's dark muzzle bumped against his own, velvet and warm, and he had the attention of both mares as he outlined the bones of their duty. The red-haired mare was obviously attentive, leaning forward, whereas Delinne seemed to listen with more of a quiet pride. He hummed a soft acknowledgment to them both, pleased with their understanding. Some part of him had hoped they would have some sort of question, but it wasn't all too easy when you just had it sprung upon you - no time to wonder, to think. In a few days one would surely pop up. A soft smile graced his lips. "Phantasms are extremely important to the herd," he said, something vaguely amused in his voice despite the grave statement. "It is no light burden you have shouldered, and because you did shoulder it nonetheless, I am very grateful. I'll leave you two to get acquaintanced." They were a team. If they were unsure of something, they could - should - consult one another. They needed trust - to trust in the other, that they kept an eye on what they were meant to, so that both didn't have to watch everything. With a flick of his tail and a nod to them both, Mauja strode away, disappearing into the thinning fray of bodies to his next duty tonight.
