The wind lifted gently towards the Dauntless and his bonded, bringing sound on waves. It was a foreign sound, different on their ears, but oddly enticing.The jingling drew the pair in, and the gathering of so many Helovians peaked their interest even more. The pair picked up their pace, purpose in hoof and paw. What was happening on the island today? Was there another murder? Surely in this peaceful place there would not be another fallen, but the Captain and his bitch could never be certain of the oddities happening in this unpredictable land. Archibald and Loretta both lowered their heads and moved on, briskly trotting towards the gathering around the tree. Golden and amber eyes narrowed darkly before they stepped in to the fray.
When their eyes lay on what was happening, however, their heads raised and their faces relaxed. This seemed to be a celebration of some sort. A confused wave washed from Loretta's mind to Archibald's, but the massive equine stepped forward towards the Earth Turtle. A nod, full of respect for a servant of the Earth God, was all Archibald could give to the wise, aged creature. Loretta walked forward hesitantly, a small whine escaping her lips before she lay on her belly, chin resting on her paws as she watched the turtle.
It was not often that Archibald and his bitch showed respect to creatures whom had not earned it on their first hand witness, but something about this creature before them spoke of the true reverence the Earth Turtle deserved. "Thank you," Archibald's voice was a deep baritone, but it was a whisper, meant for the Earth servant and the Earth servant alone.
