Maximus is lost in thought when he stumbles across her – literally he stumbles over her. As a warrior, the red stallion with grey eyes likes to go for runs. The desert doesn’t really help with that task, so he does his routine exercise in the morning. Images of his mother pass through his mind; Aquila had been a slave to the earth shard the last time he’d seen her. But he’d heard from others she had been released and his father had a relic. While he didn’t know all the rules of the shards and relics, he knew he didn’t like the shards as they corrupted the individual and enticed their keepers with power. He was trying to figure out how to get Riven and Ianthe (two sisters he didn’t really believe knew he even existed as their older brother) to live in the desert away from Fenris and her minions. That was when she had come into his path. Believing the rest of the desert residences to be asleep, Maximus had been running on autopilot. So it’s pretty much a miracle that he sees her and can slide to a stop in front of her in time before he collides with her. With a keen eye, he glances over her oddly colored skin to see if she had been injured. Luckily, he missed the laugh she made. With a huff of breath, he spoke.
”Um, sorry,” he said through the breath, as the air was beginning to heat further. His water nursed his body to keep it like a well-oiled machine as the temperature rose. ”I’m Maximus. You new to the desert?” He walked now, making his way towards the oasis as his earth element shook the sands beneath his hooves. ”I’m heading to the oasis near here if you want to come and get something to drink. It tends to get crowded just after sunrise.” It’s like the Starbucks of the desert. But this isn’t a date or a study break.
