Eiros arrived at the outside edge of the territory. Th messenger stallion trotted in without hesitating, so Eiros followed. He looked around. It was a nice place. He had never been here before, but he had always known his father was Celestial. He snorted softly and trotted in.

Ruby was just looking around in bordom when she spotted a new arrival. Being nosy as she was she trotted straight towards the stallion not thinking about what Celestial had promised about her brothers coming to visit them.

Eiros looked around when he spotted a filly trotting towards him. He bent his head down a little lower and sniffed, nickering softly. "Hello there." He glanced around before saying,"Huh. That's funny. You smell similar to my brother, Pyrite. He's a foal like you, you know. You two would get along very well." He snorted and raised his head slightly, looking down at her. "What's your name, little one?"

Normally Ruby would have been annoyed by being called 'little one' she was 2years old not all that far from being full grown and when annoyed she usually made evil revenge plans but she recognized the name Pyrite. "so your Eiros" she said simply waiting to see if he would guess. She was a fiery chestnut, her name red Ruby. Even if her brother hadn't seen her before the name fitted her perfectly and he had surely heard her name before right?!

Eiros gently snuffed at Ruby. Then it clicked in his mind. Tilting his head, he blew out gently. "And you're my younger sister, Ruby." He smiled with the same gentle twinkle of kindness in his eye as Celestial often had. "Yes, I've heard of you. I heard that my father sired his first filly recently." He gently nudged her and looked up into the wind. "I'm guessing they sent me for me to come and meet you because you said you wanted to. Right?" He looked sideways at Ruby, waiting for her answer.

Ruby was happy that her brother had realized who she was. She looked at him and as she did she could see a strong resemblance to Celestial in him. She gave a nod of her head "yes I always wanted to see the two brothers that our father always told me about". As he said about hearing her father sired his first filly recently she gave a bit of a snort, everyone always said she behaved more like a colt than a filly, big change to having two sons alright.

Eiros nodded and smiled slightly. He listened to her snort softly and he said,"Why do you snort? Do you not agree that you are a filly?" He looked at her with an intent gaze, waiting for her answer and wondering if it was what he suggested.

Ruby gave a shrug "I may be a filly but everyone says I behave just like a colt" she stated pawing the ground a little with her left hoof. She wondered what her other brother would be like.

Eiros chuckled. "I can imagine they would say that. You seem like that, but you're still beautiful." He lifted his head and sniffed the air. Looking at Ruby again, he said,"Where is Father?" He wanted to talk to Celestial again. It had been many years since he had.

Ruby smiled nodding her head as a thanks to the compliment. "He'll be by the river, that's where I last saw him and that's where he spends is time" she explained turning towards where the river lay "Follow me I'll show you" she said prancing off.

Eiros smiled and nodded. "All right. You know this place better than I do. Lead the way." He nodded and walked after her, easily keeping up because of his height and long stride.

Ruby gave a vigorous nod of her head before increasing the pace a little, not much compared to her usual galloping about everywhere like a red bolt of lightening just to an easy but forward going canter down the slope towards the river. She gave a whinny to see if Celestial was there.

Celestial lifted his head and whinnied back, guessing that one of his sons arrived. He trotted and jumped across the river to meet Ruby, wondering which one it was. He whinnied and found that he had an answering whinny, but it wasn't from Ruby. It was from Eiros.
Eiros whinnied and cantered along side Ruby, eager to see his father again.

After a few more strides down the slope Ruby slowed to a stop once she had reached Celestial. She gave a soft snort but then remained silent to leave father and son to do the talking to each other.

Celestial looked over his son before nickering softly and trotting over to him. After nuzzling him and sharing warm greetings, he turned to Ruby and said a few words to Eiros.
Eiros smiled and nodded, listening to every word, including why he was sent for. He listened as his father told him about Ruby and the herd and all that, happy to hear that they were having a great time and living a great life.
