The point is that she now has something to occupy her time, though payment hasn’t been discussed. The horned mare shakes her head to indicate that she need not rest (Ha! She wouldn’t dare show a stranger even if she were tired. Hunger is another thing. Wessex eats a lot to compensate for her size and high activity levels), and says simply, “Lead on.” In truth, Wessex is a woman of fewer words than most; idle chit-chat is not her thing, but she is not above getting to know someone in the proper time and place. Nor is she above answering questions about herself, a lack of expressed interest in others did not sit well with many females.
She quickly digests the information in her head: four kingdoms, Helovia, and Aurora Basin. Companion. Leviathan and…. What else? Not much. And Tiamat, herself, holds no hints that she can see, no strong scent of anything about her home. So Wessex follows, and it is not long before she asks a question that she always leads with, for her contacts are rarely the ones in power. “What are your leaders like?”
