Ghost was always surprised when she came across another in the orange land, even though the Throat was quite well populated, it always seemed odd to run into so many in an almost wasteland. Though it was often near the Oasis she came across the vibrant souls of her new home and perhaps the natural resource was a draw for many here. It was certainly one of Ghost’s favourite places to linger, especially when the sun burned down on them with its often-relentless rays. However, she and her wolf weren’t exactly expecting to find a dolphin amongst the residents of the Throat, but it was a dolphin they found, or perhaps, it found them. The marine mammal also defied all knowledge the banshee had of aquatic creatures and blew her mind as it happily floated around as if it was the most normal thing in the world. It soon dived into the pool and Fantôme stopped dead in his tracks, watching the thing with wild bemusement.

"What is it?"

His gruff voice boomed into Ghost’s head and the Cadaverous winced from the sudden loudness in her mind. She looked at the creature again who was happily playing in the water now and eyeing her canine friend with a look that promised fun.

"A dolphin… I think" she replied quietly, a stark contrast to Fantôme’s noisy shouts.

"Can I eat it?" he boomed again and by now Ghost, still wincing from her bonded’s loud voice, had spotted the pale mare coming towards them. Perhaps the floating fish belonged to this mare.

"No… Stop shouting, you’re giving me a headache" she complained at him, but the wolf was far more interested in the sea creature, a little bit of disappointment entering his feral gaze as Ghost denied him the chance to make the fish his prey. Instead, Fantôme moved tentatively forwards and placed a paw into the water, flicking it with curiosity as he tried to imitate the dolphin.

Now Ghost was considering the stranger in her sights and her dark, analytical like gaze roved over her appearance as she looked with interest at the green marks and the dry blood stained bandage. "Is this your friend" she began, nodding to the dolphin. The spy had seen many bonded creatures, but not one like this. As silence fell on her part she looked back to the strangers bandage and wondered why she still had it, the blood on it looked like it had been dry a long time and Ghost couldn’t quite see what it was hiding if anything.

"Do you live here too?" she asked, even though the ocean kept the land bound at bay, it didn’t stop the winged from getting across. Here voice was neutral, however, as the sprite didn’t want to sound too welcoming nor too unfriendly.
