She had been to the meeting. She had heard what Somnus was asking of them. And yet, the mare did not care for being told what to do and what not to do. Already she had told herself that she would go where she pleased and she would do so alone. Sloane had never been one for large groups, finding that too many times everyone wanted to be the leader and none of them were ever truly qualified. Everyone was always in each other’s business and it got exhausting. Sloane would just prefer to do things on her own - danger or not. She was confident enough in her skills to be able to get along well with herself.
It was nearing dusk, the forest having already grown a little darker as the sun as trying to set. No longer did it shine down through the canopy but instead, struggled to break through the dense trees. It didn’t bother Sloane that it was getting dark. After all, the darkness only aided in her ability to slink through the trees unnoticed.
Sloane settled herself beneath the protective limbs of a large oak tree, one that had been lucky and been saved from the fires of Delumine just weeks before. Eyes were kept open, ears erect and alert. She scanned the treeline, looking for any sort of movement that might be caused by whatever beast was.
There is a twig that snaps behind her and Sloane is immediately on the defensive. Ears flatten against the sound heard as she slowly begings to turn towards the noise. However, as she turns in the hopes of finding the beast, she is unfortunately met with the face of another Delumine citizen. Eye rolls as she hisses lightly. “You’re going to scare away the beast with all that racket.” She shakes her head almost impatiently as she turns back to resume her position, hoping the intruder will simply walk on. However, something tells me he/she won’t just leave her be.
ooc: I promise she won't bite...hard. This is for anyone wanting to participate in the little court event for signos!
