The ebony and ivory stallion had known Xarkla for the entirety of his life, although they had never been close. She was a loyal inhabitant of Superb Beach, and had followed the family even when they had lost the beach for the span of half a year. But now, at the ripe old age of fifteen, the ever loyal Xarkla had bid Superb Beach farewell. Sandy Creek, the neighboring herd, had gone up for claim, and the painted mare was quick to claim it as her own. No hard feelings accompanied the decision. In fact, Nzukii was rather pleased. He could have an alliance with this old mare and not have to fear having his herd members stolen from him. Perhaps it would work out in his favor.
Hooves moved swiftly through the sandy terrain, the young king ever used to the shifting toposphere. A light, salty scent still hung on his overo pelt, and his ebony tresses were tangled from the ever present wind. Calmly but with a mighty presence, Nzukii lifted his mug and let a beckoning call escape his parted kissers. He would wait patiently until the new lead mare arrived to greet him.

Xarkla had been scooping out the area. She wanted to memorize her new lands as soon as possible. Though when a call rang through the air, she pushed her body into a smooth canter as the young brute entered her brown orbs. She reconginized him quite easily. He was the twin of Mazkii. Son of Sun Runner and Moth. She had been there when the foal was born to now where he was the youthful age of six. The two toned mare dipped her skull in greeting.
"Nice to see you, Nzukii. I hope everything is well in Superb Beach?" Ebony whipcord lashed her flanks. Her body was strong with muscles from running over sandy beaches for the last few years. She may of been quite old but that didn't mean she couldn't stand up for herself. Xarkla didn't feel any harmful intentions from the young king as she flicked her harks for an answer.

The two-toned femora did not take her sweet time in arriving, which Nzukii found respectful of her. Nothing worse than having to wait around for a lead to answer your beckoning call. She cantered across the sloping earth, and Nzu was not unaware of the new energy that she seemed to possess. He'd always remembered her to be a rather quiet, relaxed mare. Never had much to say, but was pleasant when spoken to. She seemed different already. Maybe this new rank would prove good for her.
The femme halted before the young king, and he dipped his head to her in a show of mutual respect. They were both leads now. Aerials flicked atop his skull to hear her words, and then settled again into a comfortable, lazy sway. "Everything is fine." His words were few and far between, but Nzu had never been a very talkative foal. Even now he spoke very little. The new title of king was forcing him to interact with others in new and slightly uncomfortable ways. It was forcing him to come out of that cramped little box he'd kept himself in his whole life. Congratulations, he thought as saying. She deserved to be congratulated on this new achievement. But Nzu's tongue formed very different words. "Alliance?" His lack of social skills would be the death of the poor stallion.

Xarkla remembered the young king from when he was just a foal. She had been around...perhaps ten years old when he was born? The ivory and chocolate paint gave a small smile at his words. The mare recalled how he had been the quieter one compared to his twin. Tail flicking over her rump, she flicked a hark. If she hadn't stayed in the beach for so long, the sun would surely be scorching her pelt.
"An alliance would be wonderful. I expect this to be a strong one?" Her expression gave nothing away except for how relaxed she was. Hind leg was cocked as she waited. Her thoughts drifted to Castial. He had just joined her small, but growing herd. Whenever he came by, he seemed to have the power to make her heart flutter in her chest. "Feel free to stop by, whenever you wish."
