Stormwild smiled at her daughter in law and shook out the rain from her wings. "I'm very well," she said, nodding to her. It was the truth; she hadn't been out flying like that in a long time, and the burn in her wings felt invigorating.
"Stormcloud, I have someone I would like for you to meet. This is Thundara," she said, looking over to the new mare.
"She's going to be our guest for a while. Thundara, this is my son's mate, Stormcloud."

Stormcloud approached, tail held high and her wings poised at a half-fold on her flanks - ready to snap open if the situation called for it. As she drew closer, she gave the new mare a nod of her head, eyes still glued to the familiar colors and patterns that crossed her body. Here, on the ground and at a standstill, the similarities were even more apparent. Might it be possible that they shared bloodlines? Or perhaps merely the spirits had painted with their ephemeral hands similar destinies upon their coats.
"Thundara," She spoke with a husky voice, "It is a pleasure to meet a fellow storm-rider," She smiled. But there was something about those red eyes that stared back that felt just a little off to the mare. "I had known of no others until I found this herd as well."

Thundara was still a little hesitant about all this, but, all this will suit her needs, so for now the plotting mare would play along. Those red eyes would narrow slightly before she would relax, bowing her head just slightly. "It is a pleasure to meet you as well." She flicked those unsettled wings as she turned her side to them slightly, those red eyes flickering away to get a bit of a look around. A half smirk would be hidden with how her head was turned before she glanced back to the two.
"How large is the herd?" He would ask, shaking some wet mane from her face so that the wind would stop flicking it over her features.

"Large" she said quickly, not only to exert their strength, but there was a definite echo of pride in her voice. "There are two major families. Mine and my mate, Balrog, and the line of the Advisors Belle and Zhuri. Of course, there have been many others how have made the pilgrimage here, and we have welcomed them into our ranks as well."

Stormcloud nodded silenty as Stormwild, the elder alpha, spoke. She wasn't frequently a mare of many words - something she was only starting to learn to get past living in a herd such as this one. But still generally, in an uncomfortable situation with new faes, she preferred to remain quiet.
She regrded Thundara quietly, watching her eyes and mannerisms.

Tundara was a bit weary about the other mare. It was almost unsettling. Could she see past into that darkness in her soul? Not that she was really hiding it. She was who she was, she was the storm in all its anger and rage. At least she found others that intrigued her. It was not every day she met others that would face the storm like she does.
"I see." She would allow those eyes to scan over the land once more before coming to fall onto the elder mare, ears flicking softly. "I must admit this is quite the place." This small talk was twisting her stomach. She was never good at talking to others. She preferred pushing them to breaking point and laughing at their distress and own anger. She would move slightly, walking past the two to look around a little more, though staying close. The storm was picking up in wind and the night was cooling.

"I don't mean to sound... haughty about it, but we think so. We know that Thunderbird himself as blessed us greatly, and we are very grateful. So please, feel welcome to stay for a while and see how you like it here. I see there is a lot of storminess inside you."
She gave her an encouraging smile and walked up next to her. "There's a reason the Thunderbird is our totem. There is a reason our children are all named for the catastrophic forces of nature. These forces...they are dangerous. They can be and feel tumultuous at times, but they are an essential part of life."

Stormcloud nodded again. Stormwild was better at articulating than she was - and that was precisely why she chose this herd.
"I chased the storm all my life.... and it led me here. The storm... The Thunderbird herd.... they're the same." She finished simply.
She stretched her wings, looking up at the distant flashes in the clouds. It was getting late, but she was still on patrol duty.

Thundara looked between the two, allowing them to speak, and even then she took a little time to herself before finally responding to them. It was enough time for her to make up her mind.
"I will stay here for a little while." She would move away from them before stopping and looking back. "I am going to explore unless someone would like to show me around. See what I can.. find." She would turn and smirk, moving along the ground as those wings shifted just slightly before stilling along her body. St least she can rest some more, and maybe cause some trouble, or even find out some things about where she came from.
For now though she just wanted to have a look around. Something about this place was almost drawing her, or maybe it was the storms guiding. Still, she had a reputation to uphold to.

"You're free to explore," Stormwild said with a nod of her head. "I'll let the patrols know you're visiting." She would also be sure that at least one of the patrols kept an eye on her; but she didn't want her to feel like she was being spied on. "I'm easy to find, I'm usually in the central thicket, if you have any questions."
She nodded to her and gave a smile. "Please, I hope you feel welcome."

"I'd better get back to patrol," Stormcloud said simply, excusing herself as she took to the air again, her wings beating heavily to get her off of the ground.
Silently, she hoped the mare stayed. Another kindred spirit... it would be nice to have around.

Thundara watched the younger of the two mares closely. Not once did she allow either them to move from her gaze as plots and decisions rolled through that ever plotting mind of hers. She would have to see what gain she can get from this. For now she will play the sweet child, and in time she will get her chance for games.
"Thank you. I will keep in mind where you are. I will wonder around and say hello to some of the herd members. If I need anything I will come to you. Maybe another time we can talk about times of old and another herd that once roamed the sky." Thundara left it at that and moved silently along the ground, looking out over the area in search of some fun.
The wind was still strong, rolling through that dark mane, blowing it across the soft face and across those red orbs, almost hiding them behind soft black strands of matted silk.
