"It's good to know you're making some friends for once your hi-" Laeran started saying, before a growl from Ariadne made him stop. "I'm sorry Ariadne, you know I would do nothing to put you in danger. There must be a reason for you being here, right?"<br/><br/>"We need horses," Ariadne replied. "We're heading north but we need to travel rapidly. Are the horses ready?"<br/><br/>"My horses are always ready," Laeran said, chuckling. "She has been wondering when you'd return." As Ariadne walked towards the paddock he turned towards the other two. "Take whichever you wish, but you would be advised to leave the dark horse to Ariadne, that horse will allow no other to ride it."<br/><br/>Two of the horses in the pasture looked almost identical, but the third was considerably different: a massive black horse, it seemed momentarily wary until Ariadne approached, reacting as if seeing an old friend.<br/><br/>"It's good to see you again Silver," Ariadne said, touching the horse's nose. "Are you ready for another adventure? We're off to see the dragons."
