The Prince and the Priestess

[Raja kumarie]

Kajin and I keep pace the first lap but then we see his mount start to buckle on the second by the third I've left from Kajin to pull the rains from his hands "stop your hurting him!" I cry worried for the beasts safety

[Ryuu Ishikawa]

Hearing her cry out, he pulls up the horse and turns, blinking. "What? no, he just misstepped."

[Raja kumarie]

"He's been flagging this whole time you push to hard!" I say soothing the poor thing gently

[Ryuu Ishikawa]

"Feh. Not a very good horse, then."

[Raja kumarie]

"He's young! He still needs training I would have brought you an older one if I knew you to be so brash" I scold gently

[Ryuu Ishikawa]

"More disrespect?" he asks, frowning. "This language doesn't have proper tone, but.."

[Raja kumarie]

I laugh "I wouldn't tease you if you were as gentle with him as you are me."

[Ryuu Ishikawa]

He  blinks, looking slightly hurt. 

[Raja kumarie]

"I'm sorry love it was ment in jest." I sooth taking his had "I ment no disrespect husband you are very kind to me."

[Ryuu Ishikawa]

"I try," he says, blsuhing faintly. 

[Raja kumarie]

"Why don't we let them cool off we can have a gentle walk" I say mounting up again

[Ryuu Ishikawa]

"Alright," he says, kicking his horse into a walk. "Where did you learn to ride?"

[Raja kumarie]

"My mother taught me. Kajin was her gift to me when I went to live full time in the temple two years ago"

[Ryuu Ishikawa]

"Tell me about her?"

[Raja kumarie]

"I look just like her when she was young. She's my fathers first wife and his favorite. She gets on well with his other two wives and the harem. They respect her. She trained as a healer and thought me all she knew, I'm not as skilled as she is in magic but I'm good enough for small things. It's medicine that I'm best at. She tonight me that too."
