Cereus studied the mare's reaction to his words. She appeared calm and collected on the outside but who knew what thoughts lay beneath the surface? Was she planning her escape? Would she try to leave while he was sleeping? She could certainly try. There was no point in tying or locking the mare up, there wasn't anywhere for her to run. She wasn't likely to make it very far in the swamp and even if she did, it would take days for her to find her way out. By then the creatures of the swamp would likely get to her.

"Yes it is." He replied. "I'd advise you stick to drinking that. There really isn't any other drinkable water. Everything in this cave is safe, anything outside of it and you're stomach won't be able to handle it." Cereus knew from experience how harsh the swamp water could be. There had been a time before the stallion had become accustomed to it. Even after years of drinking it, the stallion still preferred to find other sources.

"I suppose if you're going to be staying here you'll want your own space? Luckily for you this cave splits off into several smaller ones. Akiko keeps to the one on the far right. I suppose that's because I typically dwell in the far left one. You may chose whichever one you prefer." He continued on.

She nodded her head, "I know better than to run." What use would it be? Here in the middle of nowhere...really there was no point unless she knew the way out. "Who is Akiko?" She glanced over at the cave to the far right not sure if she wanted to share with an as of yet unknown stranger.
,
"I'll take the one beside hers for now," she murmmered. She wanted to leave. But how could she do that? Her mind whirred, but it always came back to one thing. She had to earn his trust, seduce him if need be until he believed she'd stay with him. It could take years, and maybe she'd be rescued first. But she would get free from him.

She didn't need a hero. She could be one for herself.

Cereus Zeridae cocked his head to the side slightly while studying the mare. She was quite the interesting creature to say the least. Who was this mare that showed no fear? She made no move to run or even to fight? She simply appeared to accept her fate and keep her head held high. The stallion liked that about her. What fun was a mare that had no respect for herself? A mare that tried to escape at every given chance? He grew weary of such creatures and often refused to keep them around long. Then again, they never really did seem to last long on their own. Most were taken by the swamp long before Cereus could do anything about them.

"She is a little pixie I picked up a while back. Poor thing seems to have issues with her memories so it may be some time before she actually remembers your name or who you are. Don't mind her though, she typically sticks to herself. Dunno what would have happened to her if I hadn't come along and picked her up." The stallion told the mare casually. "She was out alone in the swamp by herself. Seems to have a terrible sense of direction and certainly couldn't fend for herself. If she hadn't made it to this here cave, I doubt she would have made it through the night."

Ashe considered her next words before she uttered them. It would begin now, "You were kind to save her from the swamp." She said it gently, let it hang in the air as she looked around the cave. Escape on her own was impossible, freedom would have to be earned. She had trusted to survive fire, now she had to pretend to survive the swamp. It would be easy to convince herself there were some things that she shouldn't do to survive, but that was not the case. Survival was about any means necessary except giving another person's life.

This was her life and she had control. The mask slid carefully in place. "Very kind of you Cereus. Are you kind to everyone?" She questioned him lightly.

Cereus was beginning to like this mare more and more. She hadn't tried to run from him, she had yet to put up a fight, and she was even being quite sensible. Now she was even flattering him. At her words there was a small part of his brain that began to nag at him. Part of him that didn't want to trust her, it believed that she was only toying with him. Perhaps the mare was only playing with him, maybe she had some well laid plan. However, there wasn't really any way for him to know for certain. He might as well take what he could get for the moment. He certainly wasn't about to look a gift soquili in the mouth.

"Why thank you, I really do try to do my best." He boasted, exaggerating quite a bit. He may have inherited his mother's looks, but he had never quite gotten much of his father's talent with words. "I suppose I should warn you now, I tend to sleep during the day for the most part. I find that the light tends to hurt my eyes. If you plan on escape that might be your best time. However, don't think for a minute that the swamp is any less dangerous during the day. You're far safer here." He told her confidently. There wasn't any point in hiding his weakness, the mare was quite likely to figure it out on her own soon enough. At least he could spare her the trouble. "Akiko is out gathering for me at the moment, she'll likely be back in a little while. I'm sure that you two will get along quite well. In the mean time I will leave you to get comfortable. Was there anything that you might want?" He asked the mare rather kindly. If she was well mannered than he supposed that it was only right for him to be as well.

Ashe looked clearly into Cereus yellow eyes, her blue ones unblinking. "There would be no point in running. I'd only need you to rescue me, I'm completely content to stay here for the time being and enjoy your hospitality."

Akiko would be coming back soon that meant she could find out more about the mare. She could find out how far she knew the way. Little by little with time, she would find out more until it was safe to make her move. But until then she would be careful--she would lure him into thinking she'd never leave.

Lowering her lashes, she looked up at him gently. "I'm sure, I'll enjoy myself here with someone as charming as you Cereus Zerdae. Won't I?"
