Balthazaar was flying over some trees as once again he was scouting around for the herd in which he has taken a liking to. They were thinking of roaming closer to the river and so he took it upon himself to go look around to see if there is another herd that thought the same thing. As he nears the river he starts to descend towards the ground. Landing is always tricky as he could easily break a leg. He has to land into a gallop which can be really scary at times. Even for him with as much experience as he has. This time he thankfully lands right and after a few strides starts to slow into a canter then a trot which in turn ends in a walk. His purple gaze turns to look around as he approaches the river. At the bank he lowers his neck and takes a long drink from the water. His wings fold in to rest against his back.

 "Well hello," Kumonryu said. A stallion had just come to drink at the river he was standing in. He had been walking for a bit and the cool water felt blissful on his hooves. Ryu could see why the stallion had not seen him due to the huge willow that was perched somewhat precariously on the side of the river bank. Ryu enjoyed the tug of the current on his body. "Just flew in for a drink?" he asked. "My name is Kumonryu Sugoi."

Balthazaar lifts his head and looks in the direction in which a voice came from. His gaze settles on a brown stallion with very interesting designs along his back and legs. It would only be fair to reply with a greeting."Hello there. I am afraid I didn't notice you as you were very well hidden by the willow tree.." He takes a step forward so that his front hooves lie in the water. It feels pleasant but he wouldn't dare to go all the way in the river. If his wings were to get wet then he would have no way to get out of the moving water."Indeed, needed to quench my thirst after flying so long. I'm Balthazaar. It is a pleasure to meet you Kumonryu Sugoi."

"You chose a good place to come. This is some of the best water around, or it would be if I were not standing in it. I suggest you sample upstream I was somewhat dusty." He grinned. "Mind the weeds they are a bit slimey."
Under the water Kumonryu cocked a leg up in a relaxed fashion, he hoped the water would not sweep him off his feet and make him somewhat more watery then he had bargained for.

Balthazaar listens as Kumonryu talks about the water. Though perfectly understandable why he should sample upstream. Though he can wait for now. It isn't like he is going to be dying of thirst at the moment."Indeed. Thank you for the advice. I'll surely heed it when I go to drink after a while." He swings his head around to look at his wings as it feels as if one feather is askew. Man he detests when that happens. Extending his right wing he inspects it before taking a blue feather and working at it with his teeth and tongue until it is in the right spot and angle. Relief runs through him as he pulls his wing back to his side. Now his attention can be on Kumonryu. He looks at Kumonryu as he decides the right wording for his question."Are you part of a herd which resides near here? Or are you traveling alone?"

"My parents and siblings are around here somewhere, They are associated with a very big extended family. Enough so that many you see are a part of it in some way or another." Ryu pawed the ground under the water a little. "And yourself? Are you part of a big herd?"
Decided his head was too hot, Ryu dunked it in the stream, upon lifting it his mane straggled down his neck in ropey wet waves.

Balthazaar listens and shakes his head no."No not part of a big herd at all. Mostly just a group of us that wander around. Not really searching per say for a permanent place. We have Gypsy feet you could say." He chuckles and the ends of his mane are wet from when he drank."We call ourselves a herd but mostly we are more of companions who just don't want to travel alone.Everyone brings there own tales and stories so at least it is entertaining at times. Some look for a more permanent group such as myself. Yet I am content with where I am at in life."

"Stories you say. So what are your stories? I would be most interested in hearing them and those of others you have traveled with." He tilted his head. A gypsy charmer, what luck. Mom had warned him about this buuuuut he couldn't help himself.

Balthazaar tilts his head and thinks for a moment."You want to hear a story huh? Well then.. Let me think on one for a moment. Though do you like comical stories, sad stories, or inspirational stories? That would help narrow down which story to tell you."

"I prefer comical myself, I might get inspiration for a prank or two. I need some new prank fodder. And some new friends to try them on."

Balthazaar chuckles."Well perhaps this will perhaps inspire a prank." He grins and goes to start to tell a story."In east there is a herd with many azerin. One day, Draxxon a flying azerin with a coat as dark as coal was flying around when he spotted our friend Tristan. Tristan was asleep and can be quite the deep sleeper. With a coat of whites and browns Draxxon got an idea. So he flew over to the river and started to put mud all over Tristan covering the white splotched. Tristan never woke. Soon after Draxxon was done a group of foals came up and saw Tristan. They screamed and ran off screaming "Monster Monster!" Tristan woke up and got spooked. He runs after scared of this monster himself. He didn't know it was him. He ran towards the herd and some bolted at the sight of him. All the while Draxxon watched with amusement. Only after many odd minutes did someone stop Tristan and tell him about the mud."

He crowed with laughter. "Oh well done, thats a good one, perhaps a variant with feathers and twigs stuck in the mud would work on a few of my family, my sisters would chase me for days. Thank you Balthazar, for the wonderful tale."
Kumon smiled at the other stallion, charming fellow.

Balthazaar grins and nods his head. He is glad the story did indeed provide laughter. It would have been very sad if it didn't. "I am glad that it has brought some inspiration for more pranks. Now the sight of angry sisters is entertaining to think about. Yet I know how furious some mares can get." He leans down and rubs a spot on his front leg that is itching. Looking up at him he stops and straightens again." So perhaps you have a tale of your own? I wouldn't mind hearing a story."

"Angry sisters are one of the biggest joys in my life." Kumon got a big twinkle in his eye. "Well one of our relatives and his son both have an unhealthy relationship with trees. He can't walk past one with out tripping on a root, its even better when they try and run past them. You would laugh so hard. They are never hurt, they just roll over and over and over. ts a good laugh."
