[As on most days, the first place Nill goes after waking up and Heine has gone on patrol is to the gardens. Dog and Horse are in the clearing where she left them--it makes her happy that they never wander far. Or, if they do, they always come back to wait for her. Dog barks happily when he sees her, and her wings flick behind her, a smile crossing her face. She kneels, giving the animal a thorough rub behind his ears before pulling a bone from the pocket of her dress. It will keep him occupied while she exercises Horse.

The blonde leaves the dog to his treat and toes off her shoes beside him--they won't go anywhere, she's sure. It's easier to ride Horse without those silly shoes anyway.

The bay tosses his head when she approaches. His bridle is on the same stump where she'd left it, and he patiently allows her to put it on him. His saddle remains where it is--she doesn't really like using it when they're just exercising. It's just too difficult for her to put it on him alone. Nill uses the stump to boost herself and her wings for balance, and soon enough she and Horse are on their way through the jungle, Dog casually trotting behind them.

When they break into the next clearing, Horse snorts and slows when he sees that it's already occupied. Nill had been paying less attention, riding lazily, and it takes her a moment to realize what's happening. Her wings flare behind her in surprise, and all she does is stare at the man who looks... vaguely familiar. She brings Horse to a true stop and Dog wags his tail, bounding towards the stranger.]
