Callum says, "They are just like people, very distinctive personalities. They are actually smarter than a lot of people I know, and far more intelligent than horses and other horse-like creatures such as the Pegasi of Gibraltar or the Unicorns of the Alps."

"Unicorns? Well, if the legends about them are true, they won't like me very much," she laughed.

"Unicorns? Well, if the legends about them are true, they won't like me very much," she laughed.

He says, "Well, I for one have no plans to climb the Alps to find one. There's actually a family in Italy that takes wealthy people up on sighting tours, but my sources indicate that the reclusive unicorns seen from a distance are only horses with fake horns attached."

"I can't believe that would fool anyone. Not because they wouldn't be convincing from a distance, but that anyone would think you can just go on a site-seeing tour and reliably find a creature so rare and reclusive?"

She added, only half in jest, "Is it a rich people thing? The idea that anything can be gotten with enough resources?"

He says, "I know better."

As they are talking the sun moves further west, now placing the pond in the shade from their side to the center. The hippocampi move towards the far side of the lake that is still int he sun, where both of them now frolic together doing what looks like a child's game of hopscotch.

"I know you do, but you seem to be a man of uncommon sense and exquisite taste."

She watched the hippocampi for a moment. "I can't imagine what it would be like, to be so intelligent, yet have your whole world be limited to a pond, or a lake. To have so little information from outside your own experience. How deep must your thoughts go their breadth has to be so narrow.

Of course, I'm assuming they don't communicate with other creatures, and I should know better than that."

OOC: I AM still reading along you know! *glares* Lol. Actually I had been considering what might have occurred if Ruby was in the barn above the well... I mean after she found out that spells are a thousand times magnified. Abby is smart... Ruby.... Not so wise. Probably not dumb enough to set off a fireball as big as our sun but... Yeah. [/occ]

 

[Silver Moon]

OOC: I AM still reading along you know! *glares*

OOC: OOC: Well, you've had something more important on your mind than this game. Maybe once your're recovering Ruby can wake up and have some fun with the Queen.

He replies, "Well, that might explain why Nalu likes to communicate so much when given a chance. Captain Nemo says that the ocean hippocampi are able to communicate regularly with dolphins and whales. This pair were the last survivors of two freshwater families, so most of their lives they have only had each other. That could be why they like us so well. Or it could be that they are just creatures with uncommon sense and exquisite taste."

"I would imagine it's a bit of both," she said with a smile. "We should probably be headed back. Your meeting must be coming up soon."

 

[Silver Moon]

"I would imagine it's a bit of both," she said with a smile. "We should probably be headed back. Your meeting must be coming up soon."

He says, "It is, and these will be heading back to the bottom momentarily." They stand and head back down the stone path between the trees. When they are around half-way back to the buildings theys ee the carriage stopping in front of the barn, dropping off Pepe and Maracita. The carriage then heads off away to the north.

As they near the barn the carriage returns, this time dropping off Charles at the barn. "Well dear, this is where I say goodbye for now. Our timing is good, you are probably tired of walking and can get a ride back the rest of the way to castle." Charles holds the carriage door for Abby.
