 It was a beautiful day, if a bit chill. Autumn was in full swing and the biting cold of winter was starting to edge into the winds. Celegras didn't mind. The leaves of the trees were an array of fiery colors, the sun was high, and the stallion was performing his patrol duties for the herd. His duties were especially crucial now, as the herd was preparing to move from their summer/autumn grounds to their winter/spring grounds and the stallion had to make sure the area was safe for travel.
There simply wasn't anything he loved more than patrolling. It gave him a chance to commune with nature, collect his thoughts, and enjoy the fresh air. Of course, there were dangers involved and what stallion didn't enjoy a hint of danger and adventure? Though, today had been relatively quiet so far. He'd crossed the river and come into the winter feeding grounds to find all was rather quiet. He began searching the tall grasses and brush, poking around in a few caverns and outcroppings of rocks. He was methodical and thorough, searching for any sign of trouble.
((for help understanding where they are))

 "Courage!" Amarante was chasing after her mountain lion, yet again. She had found him only a few weeks back and he was already trouble. "Where are you going?" She had a feeling following him was going to get her into trouble. She was worried about things like that. She thought she could break, not sure where this idea came from, but there it was.
Amarante was a delicate creature, or so she thought, and didn't like adventures or trouble. Courage on the other hand love to do just those things, why she named him Courage, he was her courage. She went after him, but lost sight of him.Courage was just ahead and was happy to get Amarante out there in a new place. Neither had been here before. He padded along not seeing the cerynei on patrol.

Celegras was enjoying the sound of the wind rustling the dry leaves on the ground, the creaking of the branches of the trees, the wind in his leafy mane. Another rocky outcropping searched, and nothing but a rattlesnake -now dead - had been found. He began humming to himself, enjoying his work. The stallion was just about finished when he heard a noise and turned. He could hardly believe his eyes as a mountain lion rounded a corner and came into view. A lion! This was exactly the type of thing he was trained to handle. He squared off against it, dipping his head to lead with his antlers. "Foul beast!" he cried as he charged. He reared at the last moment, seeking to pound the lion into the ground with his front hooves.

Courage rounded the corner and then came face-to-face with a male cerynei! This was no ordinary cerynei and it went straight at him, Courage skidded to a halt and closed his eyes, this is what he got for just running and not paying attention to his surroundings.
Amarante was finally catching up when she heard a voice. "What?" She galloped as fast as she could just in time to see a male cerynei charging her Courage, "No, wait, stop!" She cried as she ran right between the two. She wasn't brave and wasn't good with danger....but this was the most danger she had been in before. She had a tear in her eye as she pleaded with him.

((I think familiars can talk, yes))
Celegras skidded to a halt in confusion. Why was this mare protecting the lion? "Miss, please, you must come away from that beast! Lions are very dangerous creatures!" He tried to sidestep around the mare, shielding her from the lion and the perceived danger. It was the stallion's job to protect anyone from harm, be they part of the herd or not. "What is going on here?" The lion was cowering with its eyes closed. He could hardly attack a creature in so pathetic a state. He turned a questioning eye on the mare. "Who are you?"

She sighed as he stopped his charge. "I'm Amarante and this is my friend, Courage." She looked back at the lion who had finally opened his eyes and was looking at the two of them. "He wouldn't hurt anyone." She was pleading to this stallion hoping all was ok.

The stallion arched a brow at the curious mare. "You're friends.... with a lion?" He was incredulous. "Lions EAT soquili, you know that right?" He shook his head, calming and taking a step back, seeing that there was no danger. "What a strange creature it is not to attack."
