Subject: *A short, aged, buckskin stallion walks into the territory with purpose in his step. He is followed by a taller, muscular, more youthful black stallion.

 The older buckskin speaks respectfully, but with a tone of arrogance. *May I have a word with King Malussinn when he has a moment? I have an offer.* The younger stallion stands a few feet behind his elder, his eyes looking as though they had once had spirit, but now are averted and the closer you look, the more fear you see.

*trots up to the pair intrigued. She flags her tail and arches her neck a bit. She stays at a distance unsure of the pair, especially the elder. She notices the young one but does nothing. Her muscles strain from the tension in them but she stays watching the odd pair*

The proud Gamma steps forward, making his presence known with the usual downward glances and inflamed aura that encompasses everything. dipping his muzzle in a brief greeting he stood to one side, eyes raking skeptically over the two. he wasn't wary of them and his curiosity was blunt. ebony lamps flickered boredly over Seductress of the Storm once before returning to the other two, his gaze heavy with nothing. the void of his pools was all-encompassing, and the aura of cold impassivity was somewhat heightened from it's norm, but these two wouldn't notice that. Frozen Dreams said nothing, as it was not his place to speak. he merely watched his curiosity had been peked and he would leave when it was satisfied. that was his world.

*His dark eyes raise towards the mare before him and he statres after her longingly. He is only a young stallion of seven, a wild heart cannot be tamed. He misses the touch of a mare. He shakes his long forelock away from his eyes and lowers them again. He will not risk the fury of Euripedes after his display at the snowball. He wonders what his master is planning, what his mind is concocting, and what role he must play in it. The buckskin in front of him is much smaller then he, but the observers can see that he holds a respect for him and almost a fear. The fear is easily masked by youth and strength.....and maybe a little magic.*

Oh dear. Malussinn approached at a heavy walk, his eyes busy as they scanned the small gathering of equines. What now? He could smell the aroma of fear coming from one of them and it took only a few steps more for him to be able to place the emotion on the younger of the two stallions. Snorting lightly, his gait slowed even more as he arrived at the scene; his gaze settling onto the older.

"I'm Malussinn. What offer do you have to give?" Inquired the black steed his own tone naturally thoughtful and quiet - the unusual voice of an evil, but a very good one he had found for his unusual self.

Frozen Dreams, languidly detaches his authoritative gaze from the pair of strangers, their presence had begun to pique his distaste. he could smell even fear on one of them. horrible as he was with emotion fear was one of the few exceptions. he alighted his gaze on the king, gauging the tone of his voice, but after a small struggle he gave up, once again acknowledging to himself that he really needs to work on this disadvantage.
auds swivell and remain fixed on the strangers through the time his acculi are otherwise engaged.
as the king approached the prideful stallion had changed his dominant poise to one of somewhat lesser authority. he recognized Malussinn as his king. out of the corner of one eye he watched the mare, her antics were to him only an idle amusement. the bronc was the epitome of conceit. he reeked of his pride and though his eyes gleemed with an icy impassivity it was obvious that fire burned not far beneath. he did, however, remain silent. awaiting the response of the other.

Your Highness, my name is Euripedes and this is my apprentice Perseus. I come from lands far from here, originally on a quest, but our plans are different now and we need a place to stay. I am the Great Wizard of my lands and I come to offer my services and the services of my apprentice. There is little magic I have not mastered. I am at the highest level of wizardry and there is much we can do for you. All I ask for in return is a place to stay, and perhaps a place to work with my apprentice on his skills. Anything you ask of me I will give. It may not seem like much of an offer, but pardon my tone, I am not trying to boast, I can make anything happen you need. *He annunciates the word anything, for he is a great wizard and it is true that there is next to nothing he cannot do. He eyes show his arrogance and confidence, but his face and voice is masked in respect.*

*The black stallion behind him listens to the conversation, never once raising his eyes to view the King, for he knew if he did, there would be consequences to pay. But he could feel all eyes on him, smelling his fear. He knows that he is not a weak stallion, he is the strongest and bravest in his lands, but others can obviously see there is something in the great wizard that keeps the black stallion down. He could easily overtake the elder, due to his age and small size, but if what the wizard says is true, Euripedes will always have the advantage.*

^.The fae approached behind Frozen Dreams, giving a calm snort to make announcement of 'er presence to him. She eyed the strangers which what was meant to be slight respect...but turned out to be disgust. The judgemental type she was, she tore them apart mentally. The older stallion's over confidence she found to be undefiably sickening. How dare he approach Malussinn with such an offer, when to posess such powers 'e must first gain them in these lands. She sighed internally, well...she could buy that line, but still...All of this seemed a little awkward. Then the younger stallion could 'ave passed for another like herself. A slave, yet a broken spirited one. He reeked of a fear, that she herself did not feel for her master. Lobes flicking she listen half-heartedly to the goins on. Watching Storm momentarily, she rolled her gems...again...obviously the young steed was a love sick knave. Yet more sickening happenings. She glanced at FD, obviously he was as impressed by them as she was. She was tempted to leave...but remembered what happened the last time she abandoned all respect for a conversation.^

he turns his head only slightly but does not release the grasp of his gaze from the pair. he gives the slave a nod to concede to her that he has noticed her approach. he makes a connection, but chides himself for requiring that his own slave pop up before he realised it.
what kind of an apprentice was afraid of his master? a curious fit that one.
the mascu's features twisted sceptically over the older male. he had never supported magic in any shape or form. preferring to resort to wit and the savvy that had sustained him thus far, and ofcourse, fail all else, brute strength was in order. he mistrusted the magical, for they forever considered their plane one above that of the mundane.
[such a hypocritical creature our FD, does he consider himself above mundane?? -nods vehemently-]
the stallion's expression of cynical scepticism did not flicker as he transfered it to the Evil King, but a new message was held therein. what does this say to you?

Indeed. The stallion took his time in answering, his lobes flicking back as he conversed silently with his player. At last he reluctantly assented to his player's arguments, and she materialized at his side, her hands thrusted into her pockets as she observed the master and apprentice intently.

"I don't mean to be a bother, Euripedes," she began, intending on keeping it somewhat in character. "But did you ask permission from Ashley and DOL before joining - or coming - to Cascade Mountains? There's a reason we try to keep magic to a minimal, and as interesting as you appear to be as the almight and powerful horse; I just want to be certain that Ashley knows about you before Mal let's you stay here - which he's sure to do no matter what."

Allowing his player to take control of the situation and interrogation for a bit, he cast his gaze 'round at the others gathered about the master and apprentice. His expression wavered slightly towards one of amusement as he noticed the disdain held by both Frozen Dreams and Jin.rai, allowing his glance to connect to the former's... his own message immediately evident, however briefly, in twitching lobes and gleaming eyes. That we need a cure for arrogance and egotism.

Kate gave the black King a sharp and discreet kick.

the dusty stallion's auditives flatten momentarily against his poll, uncertain of the direction of her expressed message. either way he narrows his eyes with a slight suspicion before snapping his head forward once more. but it doesn't stop there, he inds he has tired of these two strangers for the moment instead his cool glaze alights on the ivory form of his slave. Jinrai wore a look similar to his own a few moments before. he tips his head sideways, a glaze invading the clear ebony of his occulars.
now, Jinrai was a puzzle he hadn't solved yet. one of those ones, you know that come with one piece missing? he fitted together in his mind all the pieces he held so far, and decided that he may need to construct the others in order to complete the zelpuz.[when in doubt of synonym, find a clever alternate solution.] and so, allowing his auditives to take over as main sensory organ for the moment he delves into his psyche. rearranging, scrounging around in the box for patterns and distinguisheable portions of the picture.

Kate glanced at Frozen Dreams, giving her horse an expressive look before returning her attention to the player of E. & P..

"My apologies for replying so late - there were things to do, people to avoid!..Joke.

"Anyways, actually, Ashley might just consider it. Zoe and I actually have three characters (she has two, I have one) that occasionally pop up when we're bored and then proceed to do mischief. All three are overly powerful - too powerful - and thankfully do not belong to CM... though at one point I tried to make a lair for my sorcerer as a challenge. Anyways, what I mean to say is that if you can honestly put limitations on your characters and if you talk to Ashley about it and discuss it with her, I'm sure you can keep those two. Since they sound pretty interesting, I would suggest not forgetting them."

His eyes upon the other player, the stallion snorted lightly as he smoothly joined in the OOC conversation.

"Besides which, and what my player cares not to mention, they would be an interesting addition to already-unusual Cascade Mountains. I'm sure you've noticed the other rule breakers with magic, and two well played characters with controlled magic would already be welcome." Lips pulling back, he presented fangs in a equine smile. "And, it is within my own self-interest if Euripedes would consent to being Evil Valley's wizard. Cascade Mountains is changing- we must change with it."

What do you say Malussinn? Are we welcome? *The buckskin's eyes twinkle with an evil charm. His mind if obviously concocting and schemeing as they speak.*

*The black stallion raises his eyes slightly, peering through his forelock to watch the King's expression. Is he picking up on the true evil soul of Euripedes? Does he realize what he can do? Or maybe he does realize it and thats what he wants. Perhaps this home will be a sanctuary away from his master.*

His expression?- 'twas A lazy-eyed one; lids falling half-closed over gleaming balls, the sharply shining plume swirling and curling around relaxed hocks with the same deadly attention, and seeming disinterest, as a venomous snake. And although his threaded tones held the same lazy - and yet alert - pose as his frame, it rippled with other emotions expressed and suppressed specifically by the embers embedded delicately in the dish-plated visage of the King.

"Of course, Euripedes. You and your apprentice are welcome. Please... make yourselves at home." Sparing naught a glance for the apprentice, for whom he felt a trace of pity, the steed but turned around upon blunted scythes, and left the two to their own... limited... devices.

the abrasive stallion lends a bored ear to the conversation, and nearly winces with obvious incredulity at the final utterances of Euripedes and Perseus. he castas a sideways glance with scathing intensity at the two strangers before him. his own m,idnight pools burn with the exuberance of fallen stars, malice infecting his poise and tainting his features. a derisive snort escapes him, accompanied by the blatant recoiling. pivotting grandly on his hind limb he turns from the situation in an opposite direction from that of their msot esteemed king. a flurry of nigrescent veil mark his leaving.
holding his crania to it's natural haughty plane he carries himself away at a rapid trot, mane billowing like a stygian veil behind him, and tail streaming to the wind as a flag would dance from it's pole. such a metaphorical gesture. for don't the drums of war beat faintly over our heads? hasn't the time come for flags and trumpets and armour? clashes of steel echo faintly throughout the terra as the conceited brujo prances from the meeting. his dusty pallid coat sparkles with the array of chrystalline droplets peppering it. surrounding himself in the comfortable aura of castle walls he resets his featuresin grim determination as he strides aft. the voices of his concious and subconcious chattering the complications.

*He knows of his intentions with the mare Aerial, and he knows what the stallion is thinking as he speaks with the King.*

Can I help you sir? I am afraid we have not met yet. *His tone is smooth as silk, dripping with arrogance and self-confidence. He turns his head slightly to his apprentice, sending a message through the airways. In front of Perseus' eyes, only visible to him, the words, Watch that stallion, appear in smoke but fade slowly.*
