The vorpal blade went snicker snack! He left it dead, and with it's head he went galumphing back.

COMMON INTERESTS
Jodifarrow22's Kanu
Moonlightwalk's Eyrin

Set during the down time of the Exile's living on the Eastern Island (Nothing big is happening at this point in time)

Kanu | Exile Captain

'Take the time to figure out your friends, family, neighbors and anyone else who you may come across in the future. They will be a great asset to your life, and taking the time to examine their ways, their stories and their pasts, will bring you to finally find your essence of love, life and a strong belief that no one can shake or tear down.' Kanu recited his father's words, each syllable spoken to a tee, his father's voice clear in his mind. He lifted his pale face to the sky, the weightless clouds floating peacefully across the baby blue sky. Everything was pristine, the wind was gentle and weaving through Kanu's thick mane, the lush grass beneath his hooves was soft and inviting and the distant sound of the ocean soothed his nerves to the point of almost relaxation- as much as he could be. He had been frantically running around trying to calm the horses that decided it was now a good time to try and swim home, or to try and start a rebellion- which Kanu didn't find odd, especially for the Exiles.

He flickered his ears back and forth, listening in for anything that sounded out of the ordinary. At the moment there was just silence, no one was around, or at least he couldn't see anyone. He didn't usually keep to himself- that wasn't acceptable due to him being a Captain- but right now he just needed a breather. His job always consisted of horses swarming him with stressed remarks and jobs for him to do. Of course right now he'd be exaggerating, but he was exhausted and his mind wasn't walking straight. He turned around, seeing a lone brown stallion nearby. He knew this horse to be named Eyrin. Kanu decided that the company of one- if Eyrin chose to take it- wouldn't be too bad.

He slowly begun progressing toward the stallion, his ears pricked forward and his eyes holding a friendly spark. He was wondering why Eyrin wasn't with the other Exiles, it was odd to see someone by their lonesome these days.

Eyrin stood at the edge of the beach, solemnly gazing towards where the southern Island should lay, far into the sea. As was his job, he had been scouting the new land for the best places for food and water, but homesickness had made him falter in his task and now he was staring longingly in the direction of what once was his home. He missed it... a lot, even though he knew there was nothing to go back to. That his place of birth was now nothing more then shared land.

He was so caught up in his thoughts that didn't take notice of the other horse approaching, too buzzy wishing for some kind of miracle so they would be able to go back.

Kanu | Exile Captain

As Kanu approached Eyrin, he followed the brown stallion's vision out to sea. It stretched on endlessly, and he knew that Eyrin was thinking of home- as was Kanu, and every Exile that roamed these lands. He stopped beside the horse, wondering if he would accept his company. He had spoken to Eyrin briefly before, but only when on rounds.
"It seems all we are thinking these days is the time when we were home, the time when we didn't have to look over our shoulders every two seconds. The sea is so large, it seems weird now to think that merely months ago we were swimming across it to get here." He said, his voice calm and his expression the same. He smiled, flicking his ears forward.
"How are you finding the stay here? I mean, I know it's not ideal and it's not exactly what we'd like, but soon hopefully we may be able to leave." Maybe. Kanu let the word play in his mind. Just maybe? He wanted a definitely, and a soon. He was done with this Island, done with these horses and done with the payment. He wanted to leave, go either home or to Olde where they could try again- start again. He smiled, not letting his deep thoughts get in the way of being friendly.

Eyrin was briefly startled as another horse suddenly spoke next to him, effectively pulling him out of his musings.Recognizing him as captain of the herd, he shortly bowed his head as a show of respect. "Captain," he murmured, ears lowering uneasily at being found out. It was clear that the captain knew exactly what he had been thinking.

He glanced at the Kanu sideways, wondering if he'd be bold enough to say the truth. Sighing, he returned his eyes back to the sea, deciding to take his chances. "Not really, sir. I don't like this, nobody can seem to relax anymore. I know were have to survive... don't you wonder who they'll be taking next? If it will be your sister, your mother, your friend?" He looked away, knowing that the captain couldn't do much about how things were either. He sighed again, eyes lowering. "I hope it will really be soon that we can leave," he concluded softly.

Kanu | Exile Captain

The dark stallion nodded, understanding how Eyrin felt completely. He had been living with the guilt of the deal he had made with Vladek ever since he had done it, but he- and he hoped everyone else in the Exile herd- knew that it was necessary to survive. Soon it would be over though hopefully, they'd be able to get back everyone who had been taken from them by the brutes of the Bachelor herd. The thought made Kanu smile to himself.
"Don't worry, Eyrin. I know it's easier said than done but we need to show the Bachelors that we are stronger than they give us credit for. It's ok to be scared, it's ok to dislike someone or a situation, but we need to make sure we stick together, yeah?" He said, smiling politely. He could tell he and this stallion would be good friends. He needed friends who could console him, someone like him. Eyrin seemed to be that type of horse.
"So do you have family here with you?" He said, moving over to a large path of shade so he wasn't in the beaming sun. His back was burning until it was smothered and relieved by the cooling shade.
