Falling back into Hyaline's fold has been effortless. Despite the years he had spent away, it still feels like home in Amet's heart. There's a comforting quality to the sanctuary territory that brings him peace even when his thoughts linger on the whereabouts of Eione and Makhai and Takhar and Gypsy and...
The stallion sighs quietly, pushing the hair from his ajar maw as he attempts to ground himself. Worrying will do nothing by way of solving his problems, it will only add to his suffering. And he has so many other things he can be doing, inside Hyaline and outside of it, to help further the life of the territory. Besides, it's time for him to assist Kensa with duties of the crown, and for him to prove to Kagerus and Solace that they have made the correct decision in granting him Hyaline's helm once more.
Beneath the sweeping boughs of his favorite wisteria tree at the eastern side of the lake, the gilded stallion shakes a light-brown forelock from his light amber eyes just as movement at the forest's edge catches his attention. The grullo tovero that pulls away from the treeline is unfamiliar to Amet, but the easy way he moves and the smile upon his face leads the akhal-teke to believe that Hyaline is his home and, perhaps, has been for a while.
He moves from beneath the flowering wisteria branches and sets his course towards the other stallion at an easy trot. The sunlight glints off his gold and bronze dragon scales but, despite this, the other stallion does not notice Amet (a fact that he cannot fault him for, as the flora and fauna of Hyaline are both beautiful and distracting). To catch the stranger's attention before he reaches the treeline once more, having sated his thirst at the crystalline lakeside, Amet whinnies warmly in greeting.
"Hello there," he calls as his gait assists him in covering the space between himself and the tovero stranger. He offers a polite smile to the icy-eyed stallion before coming to a halt and, with ears that press forward with interest, introduces himself. "My name is Amet. I don't believe we've had a chance to meet yet."
