She watches him for a reaction, but he's not talking much. Then...then a lot happens. More little fillies show up....all fillies, and their little minds are running and speaking all at once(she sees that one or two belong to her Solstice) and she laughs at the smallest ones' cute questions. She loved the innocence of the young. The Benevolent turned to the colt after his rather raspy hello, and, unable to resist any longer, she inquired, "Hello to you too, young stallion, might I enquire as to your name and, perhaps, that of your mothers? You have a familiar look about you..." her eyes were kind and encouraging, ignoring his hesitance. A few minutes after and then a rather large, annoying stallion showed up. She did not like the look of him, and instantly, her past Chieftess self was visible. Strong, elegant, commanding, she stepped purposely in between the little ones and this newcomer. "I would be happy to assist you, stallion, but you do not smell of this herd, and therefore you are not welcome here until you state your name and purpose.". She hadn't done this to the colt, certainly, for he was young still, and there had been no immediate threat posed from him.
It was mere heartbeats before Destrier and another stallion, who introduced himself as Kaj, appeared and took control of the situation. In the past, she'd have been annoyed at being so clearly pushed to the side. Now, she was more than happy to move back and stand aside, next to the young ones, and let the leads take over. Though her body remained taught, waiting for any sign of movement with intent to injure, and then the colt said, "Your face is leaking. Why?" and she couldn't help but choke on the laughter which threatened to bubble up, and looked back at the young horse with amusement easily readable in her eyes, before she turned back to face the situation.
