He let out the breath he had been holding. "Permission for the woods of the world, no. But this particular forest is home to a herd. The leader of said herd is somewhat... Protective of her people."

"Well," she replied sweetly. "As long as she is not also vain I can not see why she would miss the presence of a single flower." By also she meant along with protective, not also vain. She certainly wasn't vain, well, not beyond due diligence to her rights as the fair maiden that she was, thank you very much.

"It's not the flower she'll miss," he assured her. "And even if she was so territorial, I do not think she'd begrudge so fair a maiden as you a proper adornment. However, she is very particular about her borders and what crosses them..." he considered for a moment before shaking his head. "Ah, but you present no threat to the herd, do you, m'lady?"

"Me?" she paused mid stretch, her prize just out of reach. "A threat? Only to this flower, I assure you," she said smoothly, trying to cover up her disdain at the comment. Honestly, she was a lady, certainly not some sort of ruffian.

"Then I suppose there's no reason to inform her of your presence," Midagi decided. He considered offering assistance. The lady seemed to be very independent... still... "Can I be of assistance, m'lady?"

Dragana was in the middle of wrinkling up her nose debating on how she could get that silly little flower. "Not unless you can fly up here and fetch this thing..."

"Fly, no... but I do know of a path that would get you closer to it, from above." It had the advantage of being less dangerous. To a point, anyway.

Dragana froze in place. "Is...that a fact?" she asked slowly. That would have been nice to know ahead of time...

"Yes," Midagi confirmed. "I could show it to you if you'd like to come down. Or I can get the flower for you..." If she would just come down. She was making him nervous.

"And..." she leaped down a few feet. "You didn't see fit to reveal this little piece of information any sooner?" she questioned arching her eyebrows.

When was he supposed to have told her that? He smiled charmingly at her. "I apologize, my lady. Allow me to properly introduce myself. I am Midagi Royale, knight of these woods. And you, my lady?"

Well, it was difficult to be cross after such a glowing introduction, the mare had to admit. "I am the Lady Dragana, also of the woods, though admittedly not these ones. And what is a knight doing out so far?" she questioned as her hooves landed once more upon the ground in front of the stallion.

"My home is not far from here," he explained, making sure she had landed securely before he started to lead her to the path he had spoke of. "It is my privilege to patrol this boarder for the local herd."

"Well," she said slowly. "That seems very...official. I've never heard it's like in these parts..." she said slowly eyeing the path and scolding herself for not catching it on her own.

"The Lady Zahavah has an unusual little herd," he agreed, bemused. "She also has an unusual way of going about things. However, it's a good arrangement, and she is a fair leader, and her daughter is kind."
