Hoshor Plains Some places

It was surprising that Nechako had left him all alone with the herd. There really was not much to worry about, for no mares were currently able to breed, but a more cautious stallion might fear a usurping. Skoonka shrugged it off, scoffing at the idea of him attempting such a cowardly takeover. No, of he wanted the herd he would go man to man for it.

That, and Atna would likely not entertain such foolhardy notions. "Hey," He drawled, casually sauntering up to the aforementioned mare. She was a pretty thing - not quite as handsome as her mate - but she made a good mother. That was the important thing. "Whaddaya think of this place?" He queried innocently, copying her motions as he nosed about the snowy ground for something to eat. For a moment, he allowed a small silence to lapse his dialogue, before he continued on coyly. "It's too bad Nechako's off again. He ought to be the one staying here to guard the herd, sending me out to scout the area instead!" He shook his head, his dark forelock veiling the blues of his eyes.
