Liam Kenway
The Tinea Swamp. It was as humid as he remembered it being. Truthfully, he should give it more respect and appreciate it more than he does. It reminded him of the swamp from Caeleste, though he had foggy memories of even that. The muck and mire sucking at his legs would bring down anyone and anything if they weren't careful enough. As it was, there were times that the stallion found himself struggling with the footing of the swamp. The sun was at its peak in the sky, shining down heavily on the swamp and the air around the stallion was heavy with humidity. It felt like he couldn't breathe properly, but still he pressed on. There was sweat covering his copper coat, and he could feel his lungs working harder than they had in quite some time. In retrospect, perhaps it had been a horrible idea to go to the swamp at midday in the midst of the summer.
Autumn, or better yet winter, was probably a finer time to come here.
As quietly as he could, the great stallion continued to move, only hesitating when he spotted an alligator cross the path a few feet in front of him. The bull gator was an impressive size, more than ten feet long and weighing approximately 200 pounds, and it was a predator with whom even the great stallion didn't want to lock horns. With an agitated snort, the copper-coated stallion tossed his head in the air, his muscles rippling as he pranced quickly past the alligator, heaving a large sigh of relief when the reptile didn't lunge after him. It wouldn't have been a good afternoon if he'd been attacked by the old reptile. With a wary glance behind him, Liam moved on quickly, the mud still squelching and sucking at his hooves and legs.
As he paused in his walking, he heard what sounded like another walking through the mud and muck, and his interest was piqued. Pricking his ears, he moved on, approaching the sound as quickly as he could. Flaring his nostrils, he nearly stumbled as he moved from the mud onto a more stable piece of ground, clearly not used to it just yet. Snorting in annoyance at the change in ground topography, Liam flicked his ears backward before he moved on, sides still heaving with the exertion it took to remove himself from the mud and onto firmer ground.
So distracted was the stallion that he wasn't paying attention, and nearly ran smack into another equine. With a startled noise -- one that he would adamantly disagree that he made -- he scrambled backward a few feet and sheepishly flicked his ears backward again, his eyes apologetic. "Goodness, pardon me. I'm so sorry about that," he quickly apologizes, hoping the equine in front of him could ignore his blunder.
