"Namid!" The stallion's voice echoed across the canyons and gullies of Icy Mountain. It was rich and deep, in sharp contrast to the stark landscape of the mountain. Dula stood on a rocky outcropping, perhaps three-quarters of the way up the slope. The mare was not in sight, but he had the feeling that he would not sense her approach.
His dark feathering was crusted with ice and snow, his lower legs cut and bleeding from the shards of ice embedded in them. The journey up had been miserable for the Southern King, and he had been forced to stop to stem the bleeding from his tender nose. The thin air and below-freezing temperatures had wreaked havoc on his capillaries, and he was well aware of the state his normally pure coat was in. He now just wanted to get what he had come for and return to his warm waters. Water... his element. To, perhaps, be his to control.
Character: Dula Questing for: Beginner Water Why seek this?: Dula has always felt connected to water, and he knows he very well may be challenged for his lands and wishes to gain an edge over any who might challenge him. He eventually wants to become an Expert in Water.

The white mare appears before the bleeding stallion in a flurry of snow and wind, head lifted high and wise blue eyes studying him for a moment before she opens her mouth to speak his name, quiet, barely a whisper and in a questioning tone as she tilts her head and smiles at him, her mane and tail ruffled by the winds but overall appearing unfazed by the weather. "You have come for the gift of water, have you not, Dula? It is a strong element, but I believe you are quite capable. Retrieve two hairs from the mane of the dark queen, Revair, and one from the light Queen, Flying Heart." She pauses. "Return to me with those things and your desire will be granted." ~Namid (OOC: just go to Echo Summit and put a subject with the two horses' names in it so they can notice it. If they don't feel free to PM them if you think the won't mind. )

He huffed his way back up the mountain, somewhat more adjusted to the harsh cold. The three mane hairs were safely caught in his maw, two from the dark queen, one from the light. He snorted the frigid air out of his nostrils and the blood vessels split again. His blood spattered the ice in front of him, freezing nearly instantly. Dula closed his eyes and sighed, sure he looked a complete mess. He hoped Namid was near, for a storm was gathering, and the way back down again would likely be extremely miserable even as it was.
"Namid, I return with what you ask," he said, volume rather low due to the fact he barely dared open his mouth.

Oh, she heard him, nontheless. Almost immediately she appears before him, nodding once in his direction as she steps forward and retrieves the hairs from his maw. "You have done well for me, Dula," she announces and as she does the ice and snow beneath the brute because liquid, traveling up his legs, strangely warm. For a moment it seems that the waters would encase him forever until suddenly it is absorbed into his body with a mystical glisten. Namid bows her head and offers a smile. "Your quest has been successful. Enjoy your gifts." ~Namid
