"So, are we done here?" Puck sauntered up beside Lise. Puck looked past him to the tatter-colt, standing in the trees, and raised an eyebrow. "I guess thats our ride, then."

The black horse pinned its ears and curled back its lips in a very unhorselike snarl, baring flat yellow teeth at them. Puck snickered. "Huh, I dont think your friend likes me very much, Your Highness. Looks like youll be riding to the healers solo."

"Nope. He's not." Isiea immediately replies.

" you aren't exactly the most likable person, Puck. "

He rolled his eyes and stalked off, glaring at Ash as he swept by. Ash watched him leave without comment, his expression strangely dead.

Turning away, he stumbled over to the tatter-colt, which bent its forelegs and knelt for him so that he could pull himself onto its back with a barely noticeable grimace.

Isiea watches him for a moment. Then she lightly nudges Ares towards Ash and his ride.

She watched Ash, to make sure he hurt himself even more. Although she was pretty sure Isiea had it covered.

Lise was going to have to ride with one or the other, because Puck was now a huge raven. He perched on a branch and looked back at them, eyes glowing green in the darkness, before barking another caw and flapping away into the trees.

She wasn't riding with Ash.

" Isiea im riding with you. "

She's just waiting for Ash to start going so she can follow. because she's not sure where they're going.

Isiea shrugs. "Okay. Just have Ares sniff you first- he might try to buck you off if you don't."
