The kelpie lounges in the shallow water, his hooves stretched out on the sand and his finned tail flicking behind him. The sun has just begin to sink behind the horizon, coloring the tropical island in shades of orange and gold, when he catches sight of Carwyn.
Jhene has already told him of their failure to persuade Karat to return, and Ivar's irritation over the matter has been soothed. The appaloosa has a few new scars to add to her collection, and so Carwyn has the luxury of receiving only a slow and lazy smile from the handsome kelpie.
Knowing the purple Tephran had insinuated Ivar might not be the gentle creature he pretends to be has made him more cautious than usual, even in this season. When he rises from sea it is without hurry, and he moves toward the overo Carwyn with an easy smile.
"It's been a while," He says as he presses his damp muzzle to her shoulder. The volcanic scent of Tephra is fading quickly from her blue hide, but Ivar trails his muzzle toward her withers as though he might hurry it away. "I thought you might have chosen to stay in Tephra. I'm glad you didn't." If she had, he'd have been forced to drag her back and that does always put a damper on his mood. He hadn't though, she is here and whole.
