Tristen looked back to him, glad that he too shared a distaste for dishonest souls. "Yes... " he sighed. "As I said before, no wolf under my rule shall harm your herd... if something should happen, and you know it was one of my wolves, you are free to kill that wolf... it is only right after all, it is nature to defend your own life."
He looked away, thinking about the future to come. "But should you fail in killing the wolf, I will deal with it myself," he said. "I give you my word, he will be punished." He turned his white eyes over to Atrox.
"Then our deal is struck?" he said, after a moment.

Atrox turned to the mare,then back to Tristen. Yes,a deal he said.
He took in Tristen's words, Me,fail in killing a wolf? I dont think it would happen,I am a friesian.Anyways,if a wolf harms any of my mares or foals,they cant protect themselves. though I'm sure that your wolves would be diciplined? Atrox added.

"You think too little of your honorable mares," Tristen said. "They are more than capable of defending themselves..." It was the way of the wolf... or at least this wolf, to think equally of the genders. "... but I know that is not your point."
He stood, leaning forward to stretch his long legs. "Yes... it will take a while," he said. "But it will be done. Laws... they are essential for any pack to survive, and trust me, they will be made to protect your herd."
Tristen could picture the stray wolf killing one of Atrox's foals, but he planned to never let that happen. How would Tristen feel if Atrox stomped one of his pups? He didn't like the idea of that either. That made Tristen think... did this stallion... this lord, ever sentence his kind to death, as a punishment? He pushed the idea away, not wanting to bring up this kind of issue so soon.
"I trust that my wolves won't be harmed on your lands?" Tristen said, after a moment. "If they are not harming you..." What a task it was, to strike a deal between predator and prey.

It's breeding season,they will be weak from birth.i think my mares can be as strong as me,I dont think they are weak all the time,but birthing,I think might be hard [/b] he said. He stood there I will dicipline my herd,and teach them to trust your pack. They wont harm you,I assure you he added, musculare legs carried him towards a patch of grass. Atrox lowered his head,he had seem how mother wolfes sometimes held their pups,like prey. Though Atrox thought it was merely a way of bringing a pup somewhere.[/color][/center]

Tristen nodded his head in return to him, his white eyes following Atrox as he lowered his head. He could understand this. Horses carried much bigger young than wolves... it only figured that they'd use more strength and energy to birthe them.
"It has been a fatefull meeting, Atrox, if nothing else," Tristen said, walking away from them, giving a fanged smile to the mare once more. "But if you'll excuse me, I have lands to claim." And with that Tristen raced back across the meadow away from them.

Atrox nodded,picking up his head from the grass. Yes,without a land,how could you be King he laughed. Atrox turned to Blackmail,she seemed qiuet all this time. Was she listening or ingnoring?
