A Trios Journey (private rp with wingfeather and tenebria)

[tenebria]

It did not take long for the swift running arabian and her warriors and scouts to reach the herd, sliding to a halt and turning to them all. "You know what to do, I leave the safety of my herd in your capable hooves" she said solemnly to the two stallions before turning and walking away, Stormflash following her.

Lorcán frowned and nodded, dipping his head to her, then turning to Treth. "Indeed, we do have much to plan. I do not trust those stallions, not at all. I do not believe they will keep their word and move on. At least we know the direction they are now, and at least Nacho will be able to give us updates, if he is smart enough to remain unseen" he added with a slight frown. The donkey wasn't the best at being... inconspicuous. Galmúr skidded to a halt beside his mentor, dipping his head to the lead mare, then listening with a slight frown. He agreed 100% with his mentor. He glanced to the head scout for his answer, noticing Artemis beside him, and slowly moving over beside her as the two stallions began discussing plans. "So... I'm guessing you got the same vibes as I did from those stallions?" he asked quietly.

[wingfeather]

Treth bowed to the Lead Mare, ''of course,'' he answered. He turned back to Lorcán, ''that we do have you any good ideas?'' He chuckled slightly, ''you are right about that, seems one can hear him long before they see him.'' 

Artemis nodded, ''yes, I cannot believe the nerve of that stallion, talking to the lead mare as he did,'' she said hotly.

[Abbster]

When Sugar woke from her nap a little while later, she stretched and stood up, looking around for her friends.

[tenebria]

Lorcán snorted in agreement, then looked thoughtful. "Well I know the Lead Mare does not wish us to instigate any action, so for now, I believe all we can do is double our guard on the western border, and scout further to the forest." he said with a slight frown.

Galmúr snorted in agreement "I know!" he said, angrily swishing his tail. "And he gave me this self important look, as if he were trying to make me feel like some sort of part of his group. So strange" he said with a stomp.

[wingfeather]

Treth agreed, ''and I don't even care about doing it in an inconspicuous manner, he should know we are suspicious and are watching him, I feel,'' he said.

''I hope he will leave soon,'' Artemis said, ''but somehow I don't think he will.''

[Abbster]

Sugar continued looking around for her friends some more, and then sighed. "they're still not back yet" she mumbled to Cinnamon. Cinnamon trotted over. "they'll be back soon" she promised. "and then, you and your friends can tell eachother about your days tonight" she added. Sugar smiled. "OH YEA!" She said

[tenebria]

Lorcán nodded in firm agreement "We need to show that we are not afraid to to defend our borders, and push them out if need be" he said with a snort, then glanced to the warriors behind him "I will order my warriors to patrol further and longer, not one stallion will get past them" he said strongly.

Galmúr sighed "I agree..." he said reluctantly. "But if he is thinking of staying, he will soon see he cannot" he said firmly with a stomp of his hoof.

[wingfeather]

Treth nodded, ''right, we need someone on guard day and night, I will inform my scouts of this change in order.''

Artemis smiled, ''right,'' she answered, encouraged by Galmúr's confidence, ''we will be sure they know.''

[Abbster]

Sugar snorted in annoyance. "why do we never get to do fun things?" She asked Cinnamon. Cinnamon sighed. "Well, healing is fun, yes, but I know what you mean" She said. "it can get boring when you have to wait around for your friends when they're on a special assignment" she said

[tenebria]

Lorcán nodded again "I'll organize it on my side, but i we may need to mingle groups to have scouts stand guard at some times" he said, then glanced back to the warriors that had gathered, waiting. "I should speak with them now, we may converge on this matter again later" he said firmly.

Galmúr gave a toss of his mane and nodded "Precisely" he said firmly, then looked up as he saw his mentor glance their way, then a thought came to him and he frowned "I wonder if we'll still have a sparring match day" he wondered outloud.

[wingfeather]

Treth nodded, ''of course,'' he said turning back to his scouts, ''I shall see you soon,'' he said trotting toward his band.

Artemis grinned, ''you probably will, it sounds like its a big thing with you warriors'', she said with a laugh, turning she saw Treth begin to leave, ''I have to go now, see you later when we meet up with Sugar.''

[Abbster]

Sugar sighed again. "what am I supposed to do now?" she mumbled. "no horse is injured, theres no herbs to gather" she said. "all that I can do is stand here and wait" she supposed. Cinnamon chuckled. "well, now thats no way to treat this" she said. "I remember what my mentor did for me when I was missing my friends" she said

[tenebria]

Lorcán gave a nod and turned, walking back to his warriors and neighing for them to come to attention, which they swiftly did.
Galmúr snorted then laughed. It felt weird for him to be generalized with the other warriors, but it was true! "See you later!" he echoed, then turned to face his mentor as he returned. "With these rogues in our forest, our guard must be doubled. Lessen the guard and patrolling on the southern side, and focus on the northern and western. You may let them see you when patrolling or guarding, in fact do let them see" he said with a snort. "If any see the stallions, report back immediately along with their actions. We will be working closely with the scouts, and they will take some of the patrols and guarding points as we will be spread pretty thin" the gray stallion said strongly.

[wingfeather]

As Treth walked forward the assembly of scouts quieted, ''scouts, our general patrols are going to be altered slightly as we are going to team up with the warriors to keep an eye on these stallions,'' several horses snorted at their mention, ''but I do not want your vigilance to slacken on the rest of our borders for we do not know what those five are planning. Keep close watch on them and report on any of their actions and movements. Alright, everyone back to work except Earl, I would like for you to patrol the forest, a relief will be sent in due time.''

[Abbster]

Sugar looked at her mentor, curiously. "what would she do?" She asked. "Well, my mentor would teach me all these new herbs that did different things" she said. "THERE'S MORE HERBS THAT DO DIFFERENT THINGS?" Sugar asked excitedly. Cinnamon nodded. "yes" she said. "but are you willing to learn?" she asked. "OH YES!" Sugar squealed a bit
