The silence was gradually lulling Verilis closer towards the sleep that pulled at her in the back of her mind, but was quickly broken by the rustling of another equine nearby as it walked through the tall, golden stalks of grass. As the equine's presence gradually approached, she flared her nostrils and twitched an ear in it's direction, taking in the sweet and earth scent of the field, and catching a whiff of the approaching equine. A stallion it was then. Not too surprising, as they almost always seemed to be lurking about trying to spy a new mare to join them. Seemed as though Verilis was the fresh meat around here.
The stallion let out a whinny, more to let Verilis know he was there than a greeting, but of course she already knew he was coming. She watched above the grass tips taking in more of the scene as he halted near her, only giving him her gaze when he introduced himself. "Archam," she mumbled, the word taken away by the little wind left running through the sky. The name rung a bell in the back of her head. She looked up at Archam for a bit with a questioning look, taking in any possible details about him, while racking her mind for an answer to her suspicion, but every time Verilis though she grasped something, it always slipped away and out of her reach.
Taking her attention back to Archam she gave a curt nod before replying. "Archam. I am Verilis, and no I am not new to Beqanna. I have simply traveled around here, getting to know the area. It is a beautiful place, is it not?" Verilis says with confidence lacing her voice as the words came out smoothly, not bothering to stand up from the comfortable position she was in.
Soon after the words were spoken she was interrupted by yet another equine coming their direction. With a small intake of breath she quickly new this one was a mare, though she could well enough tell that just by looking at her. The rustling of parting grass stopped as the equine introduced herself and quietly lay down before her.
"It is a pleasure to meet you Desirea. My name is Verilis, and if you don't already know, this is Archam, as I have quite recently found out." She offered back, giving her a quick small smile.
She stopped to observe Desirea as she did Archam for a bit before talking again. "So, I'm guessing you both came to me with the same interest?" She opined to them both with a slight smile.
