Welcome to Gaia! ::

He was visiting Oba and his family on his way up north to Zena. Camping was sometimes pretty rough on the body and he was just congratulating himself again for investing in such an awesome shower area. It was built inside their courtyard area wrapped with a covering of vines on a shade platform which covered the shower walk way, there were patterned fencing on either side of the walk way for privacy. The shower stall itself was made of mortor and broad riverstones. Tropical plants crowded all around for the choicest places for the best moisture. There was just something about showering in the outdoors, they had cool water even on hot days and it was his favorite part of the house. He liked to dress up in his soft robe and pad out to the shower with his fancy soaps and shampoos. Looking and smelling good were top priorities for him. He was ready to relax and let go of all the tension. He was home for a while he would enjoy it. In fact he would stay a bit longer than he had planned. He had missed home to much so he needed to stay for a while and make sure everyone here felt supported.

And while he was visiting his might as well spoil himself. It felt so good to be at home and safe and he was able to relax fully for a change. He brushed a loving hand over the river stones he had chosen for himself ages of being in a river and fast flow had made them smooth as silk. It was a comforting sensation to touch them wet or dry and they made the shower look more natural. It was a very good vibe between the plants, the stones and the reddish cedar wood he had used for the wooden fixtures. It had been a fun project a few long years back he had enjoyed the whole process even though it had made him swear a bit more often than normal. The result had been more than worth it out of his cares and worries started to wash away as the tap gurgled and stuttered into a non on state. Water started staccato but became steady after a second or two. This was an absolute luxury no matter where you were in tendaji to start, he scrubbed his hair. This was always somewhat of an ordeal as he had a great deal of hair. It took forever to get all the soap out, but he was not in a rush. He soaked his face and massage did with his fingers. Then he shaved. After that he washed the rest of himself before turning the water even hotter and soaking his sore muscles. He heard with pleasure and then sighed deeply after making sure no muscle that the spray could reach remained tight. He turned the water off and wrapped himself in a huge white fluffy towel and his sandals. The servants would deal with his clothes later so he put them in the hamper and wandered back to his room after he put on some cologne. He arrived at his room without mishap he got dressed and then the must Susi had a hard arrived and really let him drive out of the leftover knots in his back. It was important as a warrior to maintain his body without which he would be easily taken down in battle or perhaps by assassination. There were many reasons why he kept up the brutal fitness regime that he did. It kept him alive. It was a connected cycle. There had been a few attempts in the field in the past obviously none had been successful. It was hard to fight a truly accomplished warrior, but he was still fast, still strong, still unparalleled at one on one combat though he was able to use his brain to there were a few people who could go toe to toe with him and probably a few unknown worthy rivals still out there. Those wolf things, Wolf twins for one thing Kiyelt had some strange but wonderful children he shook his head effectively clearing his mind. It was an old trick and yet still a good one who got dressed into loose comfortable clothing and soft creams and woodsy browns. Now he truly felt back to himself. civilization had not been quite prepared for him when he had just gotten back rugged and filthy. But with the spark of adventure very much still in his eye. But even he had to admit that he dressed up nicely. Hopefully it's clean shaven face would be a good surprise for Varinia later. He was excited to see her again. Besides the quickest moment. She had gotten home late. He loved his family so much after his massage. He ate breakfast and wondered what to do. He responded to his mail quickly checked on each family member that wasn't working or adventuring. He checked on the animals in the stable and was his daily habit went home. He had some fun animals in there and some things were best done yourself health checks were always good. You couldn't have too many especially with these this fine. There was a lot of investment just walking around in the mini paddocks like he liked having his own stock. It felt like a secondary legacy along with his primary legacy of children. He took great pride in the program is Earth and its progeny mixed with some ancient noble bloodlines and he thought he would be very pleased with the result. He would allow his son to have his pick of all the letters he would have this year all sired by sons of the earth and it was exciting to have relatives of his old mount. It would make tidy profit trading or selling the offspring that family didn't claim. He would make sure they all went to good homes one way or another. The coyote clan may want to buy some bloodstock back for whatever reason he was pleased with their efforts as well. Mighty fine animals and pedigree and training come from there. Humming he decided to exercise one of his many mounts himself. He saddled up and felt confident putting the big beasts through his paces. The daily routine was a comfort to them both after all the changes they had been to since he had chosen them from the great Ninyelt ranch in Matori. He always had the map to there on hand just in case. He had many family members that called the ranch home not all of his family was currently in Oba either a very real filter. I install your hell and tee up were in Matori so far as he knew for the moment he had just left there and felt nearly like he should go back but he had things to do. Gravel was a very big part of the stage of his life, but he wouldn't worry about that. Now he had his home to enjoy he watered the plants and check the courtyard fruit trees and fixed a leaking faucet. It was so very good to be home and his own house with his own clothes. The familiar sights, sounds and smells were simply enchanting. He closed his eyes and smiled the beasts continued to perform the pattern beneath him it was like howling a very powerful and obedient dance partner. He had put a lot of work into the initial beasts and their offspring and now stuck. It had kept him and his training was quite busy while he was at home

Slowly he brought his faithful Izkierka into a loop he had worked the most with her and Kallaido. They would be his main mounts for years to come, though now that he had some extra time he could invest some of it in a few of the offspring. An even closer bond starting at birth, he was quite proud that he had expanded his stable far enough to do this. It brought him a great deal of joy. There was something special about looping together it had a gentle rocking motion and like a trot so more of the riders attention could focus on the body language conversation that went on with all animals and people whether they could talk or not. It was an obvious an intimate form of communication, requiring familiarly familiarity of the rules and usually between the two communicators. Animals rarely lied, but people tried all the time though it was sometimes quite easy to tell with people. It wasn't accurate all the time, but it helped filter out some of the filth, there was a lot of lying involved in the army. He had been there long enough that he was seasoned in it now. There were smart ways and stupid ways to go about life and it was usually up to the individual to choose.
