Her wanderings have taken her away from the main area, and she strolls through the land slowly. The lake is now somewhere behind her, but as long as she keeps it in sight for just a bit she knows where to go if she runs into trouble. She smells no predators close as she goes, so she keeps a leisurely pace. One moment there's nothing; suddenly she is accompanied by a palomino colt, eyes deep black - but he's not alone. He's curious though, and the black shadow wolf is not attacking. She has frozen in place like she does many a time when she's shocked or scared, but overcomes this quickly seeing that the wolf is no real wolf; but a thing made of shadows and the colt thinks it's no threat. He tilts his head at her in a curious gesture, and she returns it - ignoring the shadow. She doesn't appear scared, though her heart is still beating fast from the shock and surprise. So, she takes a moment to respond. However when she does, she smiles, seeing that perhaps the boy has some magic gained from the lands or from either parent. "Hello there. I am Ilma; who are you?" she asks. Surely he must have a name. She glances at the wolf shadow curiously, now that her heart has steadied. If that thing is capable of real hurt, he has a really strong kind of magic to him allright. |

Any fool knows men and women think differently at times, but the biggest difference is this: men forget, but never forgive; women forgive, but never forget.
