*Katrellis walks up behind Mirihil, trying to hold back a snicker. Her beloved steed came galloping to them the moment he heard Katrellis' voice, like a dog happy to see its owner.* "Yes. This is my best friend and most trusted mount."

*She strokes his snout.* "Hi buddy! Did you miss me?" *He whinnies is response and nibbles the top of her head. She pushes him back, tugs on his main softly, and runs off. Windstream chases her. Using his nose, he nudges her shoulder and turns tail. The two play a short game of tag, then Katrellis takes an apple and tosses it in the air. Immediately, the horse changes course and catches the apple!*

"Sometimes he acts more like a dog than a horse!" *She bellows out in laughter.*

Mirihil watched the whole exchange with a mix of amused bewilderment and pure astonishment. She chuckled a bit at the comment before going and greeting her own horse. He seemed much more calm and tranquil to Katrellis', but he still let out a gentle whinny and nuzzled into Mirihil's shoulder as soon as she was close enough.

"Good boy! It's good to see you too," She said softly, simultaneously scritching his chin and petting his head.

"Canvaroth's always been a bit reserved," Mirihil called back. "I'd bet that if he could read, he'd always have his snout in a book."

*Katrellis chuckles at her comment. Windstream trots up behind her and tugs at her braid before stomping the ground happily.* "I know you win."

Once both their horses were all ready to head out, Mirihil saddled up and got going. She let out a small breath of wonder at the view as they followed the road south. The mountains pierced a crystal-clear sky as a fog rolled down and swallowed the pines at their base. 

"Can never quite get over how beautiful all of Tamriel is." Her words were almost breathless, bordering on an awestruck whisper.

*Riding through the mountains of Eastmarch, Katrellis let her mind and spirit fly free. Tamriel has been nothing but kind to the maiden on adventures!* "Aye! There is never a day that Kyne doesn't bless us with beauty in her nature."

*The two casually make their way to Stony Creek Cave. Not exactly in a rush to cut down the bandits. They enjoy the scenic mountainous cliffs, the rocky mountain slopes, towering pines wafting their fragrance across the forest floor.*

"I don't hold lots of reverence for many gods, but she's definitely one of the few," She said with a small nod.

Their path eventually lead to a small pond, a dilapidated pier stretching a bit over it. On the small forested hill across the pond, they'd be able to make out a couple tents and a flag waving in the wind. A flag emblazoned with the Imperial Dragon.

"Hmph. Bandits causing chaos right under the Imperials' noses. Convenient." She dismounted and landed on the ground with a thud, walking up to the edge of the pond. She then extended her hand, frost shooting from her palm and moving in a line from the water just before them straight to the cave, causing the water to freeze into a somewhat stable path.

She then looked to Katrellis and said, "I've got water-walking spells for myself, but figured you could use something more... Material."
