KASIL
If there was one thing that Kasil appreciated the night for, it was the utter stillness that the darkness wrapped the realm with. Like a child swathed in warm blankets, the realm was forced to stillness -- the summer night crooning a song that beckoned the creatures to sleep. The dark colored stallion was nearly invisible in the night, the moonlight not strong enough to cause the gold adornments in his hair to shimmer as they did during the day. He had been spending the night in the library -- reading as he often did, but found that the sentences were beginning to entangle themselves like vines. A breath of fresh air, he told himself, perhaps a quick walk around the citadel in order to wake himself a little more.
The courtyard was a natural choice for such a thing; the open air ceiling letting in all the atmosphere of the summer night without giving up his privacy. And yet, it seemed that he was not alone. The whispers of a song reached him, merely a hum given life by another. The stag lifted his head, audits swivelling in the direction of the sound as a golden stallion joined him. A wash of unease went over him, the stag unfamiliar despite the abundance of markings that would have set him apart from others. Sporting a pair of amber wings and a dark colored horn amidst a white blaze -- he would have certainly been remembered.
The Sovereign drew up to his full height, unsure of the intentions of this stranger -- clearing his throat in order to gain his attention. ”Hello there.” Kasil said slowly, his dark gaze sharp in the night. He moved more towards the center of the courtyard, away from the darker fringe. He was built tall and strong, his ancestry a mix of breeds but most notably the thoroughbred and warmblood type. ”I see that I am not the only one in this Court unable to sleep.” He kept his tone friendly, if a little reserved. He had no idea if this stallion could be considered a friend or not, warned by his advisors that there were whispers of death threats already.
A price to pay for being a Sovereign, he supposed. He never would be truly safe from everything. ”Just who might you be, my friend?”
