The grass swayed in the subtle breeze as Viveka danced among the wildflowers. Her family had just come to the area and would be performing here before moving on.
Viveka was of the Romani, young and wild and free as summer. She danced in the small troupe her parents were in to help earn the precious currency they needed for a long owed debt. But those thoughts were distant in her mind, there was nothing to worry about. Her family was whole and perfect.
Finishing her dance, she giggled trying to keep herself from falling from dizziness. The air was sweet and warm as she set off again to look for some trinkets to adorn herself. Last year's stuff had been ruined in a storm, and so she was looking for something more lasting. She had no idea what she was looking for, but she knew she would know when she found it.

'Beautiful.'
The thought was there and then gone within an instant but, it resonated deeply within the quiet stallion's mind. While he hadn't meant to intrude or stare..his eyes had been inexplicably drawn to the movement. The way she had danced with such carefree spirit..such grace..Evander had never before encountered something so glorious on his many travels. Uncertain how to approach the mare he instead went back to settle trinkets from a well worn sack onto a clean patch of earth. Already many had come to trade for the lovely items but, he'd give anything to simply know that lovely spotted mare's name. To see her dance again. Would she perform with the others? His mind buzzed with unspoken questions while he kept his outer self busy settling beautiful feathers & baubles out. The young stallion was a traveler though not part of any one herd or 'group'. No; instead Evander went about offering help when it was requested..trading stories for a warm safe place to sleep or offering trinkets for knowledge. As a shadow passed over the many items his head rose, a warm smile forming followed by an even warmer greeting to whomever had wandered over. "Hello there, may I help you find something? Perhaps a gift for someone special? Maybe a shiny bauble to impress the crowds if you are a performer?" Evander wasn't all about trading, in fact he could often be found giving away things more than he traded. Something about leaving an area with an empty sack ready to be refilled left his heart light and happy. Even as he stood trading there was that lingering sound of laughter..of the sweet scent the unknown mare had left lingering on an idle summer breeze. It was foolish to think like this about a lady he did not even know! Yet he still felt the forbidden thoughts creeping into his mind..teasing the knightly stallion.

The little gathering drew her attention. Her family would be around somewhere setting up their canvas. They would tell fortunes, sell little concoctions--the usual type of stuff. It would not be long before her family came to look for her.
She tossed her hair back and drifted through the little gathering, almost a faire as she looked at all the bits and pieces for sale. Her eyes were drawn to some trinkets and a very handsome stallion. He was dark with red eyes, his hair tossled and when her eyes met him she felt herself blush but she didn't know why.
Viveka smiled at him, boldly taking the initiative. "I'm Den Hvid Due. My family is here to perform." She didn't know quite why she was gushing so much, but the words flowed out. "It's my stage name. It means "The White Dove", it's a fairytale. Your wares are lovely." Her eyes floated down over the feathers and bells.

There it was once more..the sweet scent of summer that had left him breathless. Red orbs meeting the mares he took in her beauty up close and personal..watching from a distance hadn't done her justice. " It is a pleasure to meet you milady. You honor me with your presence.." Bowing carefully he listened to her words..what a lovely stage name..white dove seemed to fit her quite well. " A performer hm? My name is Evander..I am but, a simple traveler who helps those in need and collects things of interest to trade. I look forward to seeing you perform." Seeing her gaze flicker to the items he'd set out had the stallion's tail swaying with easy delight. Light on his hooves he moved to pluck up a beautiful pink plume of fine quality. It hadn't been easy to get but, for some reason he felt it fit this beautiful 'white dove' perfectly. " If I might be so bold..may I?" Motioning with his head the gallant unicorn waited patiently for the mares head to lower just enough for him to fix the pink feather into what seemed to be it's rightful place. Stepping back Evander felt his face heat..though no color would show through the dark coat upon his body. " You are somehow even more lovely..I think the feather has found it's rightful home."

His sound was a soft sweet music to her ears. His red eyes glowed in a bright beauty to her eyes. She inclined her head, "The pleasure is mine." She smiled a bit shyly up at him as he spoke to her. The thought of him watching her perform somehow made her a little light-headed and giggly. She wasn't quite sure what to say to that. Thank you? Or I'm glad you'll watch? Viveka suddenly felt very self conscious.
He moved toward her, the heat of his presence made her fair cheeks rosy. He extended to her a gift, and she blushingly lowered her head. The feather was pink and jauntily whipped in the wind as she stood there. She ducked her head again. "Thank you," she half-smiled.
"But I have--oh!" She reached to her ankle a plucked a small bell. "For you, so that you may always have music."
