ORION'S BELT
Returning to the common lands once more brought back some familiarity. He had spent many days wandering these parts. Today was different though. He was not wandering without purpose today. His large frame moved with unbelievable grace for his size. Two beat pace was set as he traveled across the open terrain. Equines of all sorts lined the field. Some lost in thought, others in conversation. Sky blue orbs scanned the area as he moved to a high point atop a hill. Coming to a sudden halt, large head tossed high. Silver drapery hung from his strong neck, covering his dappled hide...
A light figure caught his eye along the treeline. Another silver horse of smaller frame, hinting to him it was a lone mare. Ears flicked forward in interest. She seemed content on her own, not seeking others out for attention. He whickered softly a greeting hoping to catch her attention. Then he chose a new pace. A slower one that wouldn't alarm. His long strides carrying him nearer fast enough. His head always hung low in a neutral way. Studying her movements as he came to a halt a good distance from her. If she should come at him he was far enough off to see it coming. His head raised a tad as he offered a greeting and his name, "Hello. I am Orion. May I ask ye's name?" Always the proper gentleman he was raised to be he waited patiently for her response...
