Troubled, Caelin walked.
Though he had more recently given up on long range wandering he still found walking comforting when there was something on his mind. Something in the reassuring repetition of hoofbeats helped sooth him. This time, however, his problems were a little too weighty to be lost that easily.
Kalona blood. It used to be so black and white for him, comfortingly so. Kalonas were evil and those infected with their bloodline would inevitably succumb. Once he had met Mapiya's ward, Adour, that assumption had been challenged. She had the kalona's webbed wings, yes... but other than that she was no less demanding than a regular foal might be. He had gotten used to her, even gotten fond of her. Now, though...
She had been eating flesh. Mapiya herself had trained her so. That was a problem... that and her father, Hayagriva. The last encounter with him had almost come to violence and Caelin was all too aware of the potential danger that the large half-kalona represented. If it came down to a fight he didn't know if he'd be able to defend Mapiya. That troubled him too.
A sigh slipped past his lips as he continued to walk down the path. If only there was some easy solution to this...

Her steps fell quietly on the ground beneath her, her wings folded tightly into her body as she made her own path through the wood. She headed in no particular direction, she had no place to go, no business to tend to. At least, not at present.
She listened as the wind blew through the leaves and the birds in the branches sang to one another. Her face solemn and expressionless.
The wind picked up, just a bit. Carrying with it the scent of a stranger, not far from her location by the amount the wind carried. She stopped, her eyes peering out into the surrounding trees and bushes. A calm set over her, her body preparing if she happened upon a Kalona, or worse. Nariko rarely set out with the intention of battle, but she would not back down if the time arose that she would need her training to defend her life and honor. Her eyes caught a flash of brown and white in the distance, silently she stood and watched.
