you're always scared that you're wasting your life
Neso's mind was filled with relief when she heard Yael confirm what the mare had said to her long ago. It put so many of her worries at ease now that she knew that she hadn't traveled as far as she had for nothing and now there was a wonderful chance of her finding a new home. A home that was safe even! A place where there was a chance she could prove that she could be more than a simple, wandering mare. Then, a bit of surprise settled in as she heard that Yael was an ambassador and an advisor. Their past conversation raced through her mind a small, hidden amount of fear flashed in her mind as she panicked about possibly treating Yael as if she were a lower rank. She quickly soothed her mind by sternly thinking to herself,
'You're fine Neso... you're okay. She doesn't appear offended at all so stop panicking over nothing.'
She finally slowed her mind a bit to the point where it wasn't absolutely bubbling over with excitement and directed her attention the the horse known as Ledger for a moment and said,
"Hello, Ledger, my name is Neso,"
before she turned her attention back to Yael and said,
"The desert sounds like a wonderful place... I'm sure the stars are absolutely lovely there!"
There was a small expression of happiness on her face when she spoke of the stars, a sight that was quite rare, or had at least been quite rare when she wandered... She never really found much that would cause happiness to fill her body and mind. She thought for a moment, as if she was going over all of her choices and how she would ask. After a moment or two, she finally said,
"W-would it be possibly for me to live there?"
Her voice was timid yet also wound with excitement causing her words to be quite, unsure yet hopeful all at once. It was if she was scared deep in side her, so deep that she didn't even know she was scared, of the fact that Yael might simply say no, she would not be welcome in the desert or she would be an outcast to their world.
You must understand though, Neso had away from any sort of major civilization for quite a long time, and when she came across one, she was either chased out or moved on quickly, hating to stay in one place too long so she didn't have exactly the best social skills. At least she knew how to be polite though.
