[The sending crystal may not be able to actually show the big grin on Korrin's face when she speaks up, but it carries across in her tone, nonetheless. She has every reason to be smug, as she quickly reveals.]

So, remember how I've been going on about nuggalopes forever? Well, we found the nuggalope herd and brought them back with us. They aren't especially touchy but if you don't want to be trampled or gored by their horns, I'd still suggest treating them kindly. Those who haven't checked out the stables lately might want to do so now, if you've an interest in a different kind of mount. Horsemaster Dennet still doesn't know what to make of these, poor guy.

They're also--hey, stop that!

[She laughs as one grunts right in her ear, into the crystal's range. Evidently it wanted to say hello.]

Comments

[gatheringstorm]

[Well, how can she resist such an offer? It's not possible. Korrin grins, fairly certain how this will end, between two knight-enchanters.]

That dragon won't know what hit it. I'll have to get on that soon, then. There was one annoying the Storm Coast, I'll have to ask and see if it's still around.

[If not, she isn't worried. There are always more. The nuggalope grunts and paws at the ground, earning a pat from her.]

Restless, eh? We can fix that. [And she glances back over to Vivienne again.] What do you say, want to try one out?

[madame_de_fer]

[Vivienne shakes her head, just enough to be gracious in her declining of the offer.]

I'm not dressed for a ride, darling, though I wouldn't wish to keep you from indulging yourself and letting him stretch his legs.

[gatheringstorm]

[Being appropriately garbed or not would never stop Korrin, but she knows better than to think Vivienne can be swayed on that point.]

I probably should, just to calm him down. He's not used to stables, so it'll take some time for him to adjust. I think as long as he has regular trips outside, he'll be fine.

[madame_de_fer]

I'll have Harritt come up once you've returned and assess what's required for battle harnesses. Without getting too close for now.

[gatheringstorm]

[That perks her up and she grins.]

Thanks...and good idea. Asher here isn't aggressive, really, but he's still getting used to people. I don't want him getting nervous.
