"My old herd you mean?" Galaxy said quickly. She didn't want to think back about her times there as a foal too much, she missed Moon and some of the other herd members. "Uh nothing really" she said truthfully, she had done nothing more than run from a few stallions here and here until she finally settled down to join this herd. 'What did you do before you came here?" she said asking yet another question, how unusual for her.

Asher nodded. "Uh, yeah." He listened to her answer and thought. "Ah." Asher thought about how to answer the question she asked. After a bit of thinking, he said,"Well, I guess nothing really. I mean, I was born in the southern part of the area." He paused, trying to remember something. "I can't remember my old herd's name, but I know it was in the southern region." He looked at Galaxy. "What region was your old herd in?"

"My herd herd was called West Moon, it was in the west" Galaxy explained. Even the herds name made her think of Moon, she shook her head slightly trying to clear it of the memories. They were still fresh since she hadn't been gone long but with time she would hopefully forget a little.

Asher tilted his head. "Really? Wow. I've heard of that herd. I have heard stories from wandering horses before. You know, those lone horses that kind of go from herd to herd telling stories that they gather from various places. One of them had that herd in it. I don't remember what it was about, but it was pretty cool." He looked at her. "So you came from West Moon herd? Huh."

Galaxy gave a nod of her head "Yeah I did my uh....mother was from there" she said wondering what stories horses told about her old herd. Before she came here she had heard of the herds name but nothing much about it.

Asher frowned slightly in a rather thoughtful manner, but it quickly faded and he smiled in a friendly way. "I see. Erm, if you do not mind me asking, what was your mother's name?" He half-wondered this because he might've heard it in one of the stories, but he couldn't exactly remember them. However, he was sure he'd know if he heard the name.

"Moon Shadow or Moon" Galaxy said. Moon wasn't really her mother but as good as so it didn't matter really did it? She wondered why he wanted to know but being herself she didn't ask him.

"Mm..." Asher sighed inwardly. Nope, hadn't heard of her. He shifted his weight again. "So, um, are you enjoying being in the herd?" It was an awkward question. Well, not awkward, but strange. But it was also a question just to kind of keep the conversation going.

Galaxy shrugged a little "Mmh I suppose" she said finally but I miss Moon she though after she said it. She hadn't really done much since she came just going about her life grazing, going to the river to drink and for the occasional swim and have to odd few conversations but none had really lasted as long as this one. Maybe she was making more of an effort now or maybe it was more the stallions effort.

Asher was quiet at her response. Maybe she missed someone in her old herd... Or maybe she didn't like this herd and was just trying to cover it up for his sake. Whatever the reason, he ignored it and was quiet for a bit. He tried to think of some other thigns to ask her or to keep the conversation going. "Yeah... I like it in this herd, but I still miss my old herd." He sighed and looked across the plain, thinking of how the lead stallion kicked him out. "But I'm glad I am here now." He looked at Galaxy. "So, who named you? They must've had a creative mind to think up such a pretty name." He wasn't trying to flirt. He was just being honest.

Galaxy nodded in agreement when he spoke of liking this herd but missing his old, the same went for her. "My mother did" she said thinking once again of Moon. She didn't even remember her real parents, she couldn't for some reason but she knew that they hadn't given her this name, Moon naming her was one of her very first memories and she remembered it much clearer than most other things in her life.

"Really? The more I hear about this mare, the more I'm liking her and want to meet her." Asher gave a small sigh as he thought about what he'd do if he met this mare. "She sounds like a nice, kind, smart, wonderful mare. I'm guessing she loves foals as well, right?" He turned his gaze to Galaxy once more. "How many other foals has she had?"

Galaxy smiled getting compliments for Moon was great, even better than for herself. "She is and she loves foal, your right" she said pausing for a moment before saying "None.." she thought back to a foal at the herd that she had seen often with Moon "but there's one she's minding" she said with a soft smile.

Asher tilted his head curiously. "Really? What's that?" He paused, wondering he should ask his next question. Perhaps after she answered this question. There was something he wanted to ask.

"There's a colt called Pyrite that shes sort of minding" Galaxy said giving a little nod of her head, remembering the colt. At first she had felt jealous whenever Moon played with him but she had come to understand it and accept it after a while, she was no longer a foal but Moon still loved her.
