Herding with the Lads
GM:
Hoskar Feather:
Peering out in the direction Iye pointed, Hoskar nods appreciatively. You've got good eyes - I'd not spotted them. You're right too: can't have the rhinos losing condition.
He stands up on Kor's back briefly to look for trouble, but can see nothing else out of the ordinary anywhere.
I think it'll be alright to head over there and see if they want to clean things up. Can't see anything moving out there that might be trouble. Don't want to run into anything unexpected, though. Let me just check something out before we take a closer look.
He mutters his now-familiar charm to check for hostiles.
The charm comes back negative, though the birds are far out of the range of the charm.
Hoskar and Iye head over to see if they can gather some of the helpful birds, leaving
Maska and Salen to watch over the rest of the herd.
Ten minutes later the two Rhino braves, moving through chest high grass, arrive close enough to observe that the flock of birds have discovered a handy place to rest.
Scattered about like immovable rocks, just their backs visible above the grass, are around a half dozen wild Rhinos.
Both
Hoskar and Iye's mounts snort, matching their riders' own amazement.
A snort matched by what can only be the small herd's dominant male. Of course he's massive and ornery.
The massive Rhino puts back it's head, eyes rolling and then stamps it's forelegs, the noise alerting it's feeding family.
On mass they gather behind their leader, with movement in the the long grass suggesting that there might be several young Rhinos too small to see.
Horn Peckers rise and fall, several alighting on the mounts of
Iye and Hoskar.
