~*~He whistles while he works, comfortable in the worn saddle, he sharpens both sides of the small dagger then turns it over in his hand, feeling the edges and all, before drawing out a straight shaving blade and sharpeing it also, then places both the blades in their proper places and dismounts, slipping the stone away and walking over to the river, peering down into the water that reflected his image, he shaved fairly easily this way, he smiled, glad to be rid of the stubble that was forming, then he draw sout the dagger, wondering if he should cut his own hair with it, he decides against it and slips it away once more, then splashes his face with the cool water~*~

~*~He hums softly and walks over to his horse, drawing the dagger once more and straightening the neglected mane and tail of the beautiful animal~*~ (NT) Alexandre 14:21:09 04/18/01 Wed

The knight sighs, glancing around at the milling guests, now departing. She sheaths the sword at her side, smoothing her wine-coloured skirts. The sword seems out-of-place along with her new gown, but she pays no heed to the stares. She watches the man, intrigued. The stallion caught her eye; he was gorgeous. She smiled carefully, deciding to introduce herself..."Good day...sir." (NT) -- Mabellina, 14:27:17 04/18/01 Wed

~*~He looks up from his work on the mane and slips his dagger away~*~ "Mmm..Good Day M'Lady..." *He smiles, blue eyes cool and warm as they always were, his horse snorts again and sniffs Alexandre's hand, he pets the elegent head, eyes once more lowering to the horse~*~ (NT) -- Alexandre, 14:31:28 04/18/01 Wed

She smiles, brushing away a loose strand of hair. "Call me Mabe..." She moves to pat the stallion's neck, grinning..."What may I call you?" she ventured... (NT) -- Mabellina, 14:34:20 04/18/01 Wed

~*~The stallion nudges his hand then turns his head to look at the femme whose hand graces his pelt, snorting softly, he smiles to the stallion~*~ "Xavior...mind your manners..." ~*~He looks up at her question~*~ "Alex...Call me Alex.....It's a pleasure to meet you...Mabe.."~*~he takes in her sword and tilts his head to the side~*~ "You carry a sword.....Why is that may i ask?" (NT) Alexandre 14:40:16 04/18/01 Wed

(NT) Alexandre 14:40:17 04/18/01 Wed

She smiles again, looking up at Alex with startling green eyes. "Some would find it strange....I am a knight in His Majesty's garrison. There's also some problems with a new group of dragons...I brought this here for protection..." She smiles wryly, rubbing the horses nose... (NT) -- Mabe, 14:43:14 04/18/01 Wed

~*~he smiles and nods~*~ "Ahh i see...A Lady-knight!....we had quite a few where i am from...." ~*~He smiles as Xavior nips at his pocket, Alex slips his hand in his pocket and draws out a small carrot, handing it to the crimson horse~*~ (NT) -- Alex, 14:57:54 04/18/01 Wed

She nods politely, fingering the hilt of her sword. "There are quiet a few here as well. How did you come to Hogwen, Alex?" (NT) -- Mabe, 15:01:06 04/18/01 Wed

~*~He looks down and smiles lightly again~*~ "I guess you could say i ran into it....I come from a land far from here....Halavat....This seemed as good a place as any to set my sights on....." (NT) -- Alexandre, 15:03:16 04/18/01 Wed

She nods, gazing across the fields absently. "Yes - It is a wonderful kingdom. I myself came from Kellya. You could say I had to leave it." She pulls a sardonic smile, her gaze coming back to Alex. (NT) -- Mabe, 15:05:36 04/18/01 Wed

~*~He nods and looks around, then narrows his eyes, seeing someone he knew, he couldn't pick out the name, he signals her for one moment and walks towards the young girl and the arab mare, his Andalusion close in toe~*~ (NT) -- Alexandre, 15:12:39 04/18/01 Wed

She looks up to spot the girl, frowning. She gives a nod to Alexandre, and slips towards a tree. Leaning against it, she fiddles with the blade while staring up at the sky...The battle was approaching... (NT) -- Mabe, 15:15:13 04/18/01 Wed
