Nova Peak sentiment is a chemical defect

Stupid. Stupid. Did you forget what Father taught you? Arion cursed in his head, cursing himself for being such a fool, to give the agouti Alpha such a good opportunity to finish the spar, to finish him off. He should have remembered what Janus taught him, he should've watched out. At least this taught him that he was out of practice, the chocolate warrior was sure that with some training, he would be able to beat Scimitar with his eyes closed.

Shaking his swarthy coat, Arion straightened himself, licking the ruffled fur on his chest smooth once more before lifting his chocolate crown and regarded his opponent in an almost calculating manner though he dipped his head respectfully soon enough. "You too," he said with a brief smile. "And good luck." Good luck for what? He did not know, but something in his head told him to say it, a soft whisper from the shadows of his mind.

Arion would investigate that later, for now.....The stallion nodded respectfully at his Alpha, turned and silently trotted away.
