Eagle waited, still as stone, until the horses had settled and stopped chatting. No one was missing but Juanita, and Eagle decided to go on without her. "Thank you all for gathering," he called, surprising everyone by leaping onto a rock. "Serenity has told me that I should explain we she gathered you here. A few reasons- first is first. Is everyone here after the cougar attack, and none mortally injured?" He waited a moment, and Black Rose called out yes, she thought so. So he continued, "There have been sightings and incounters of a lone stallion looking for mares. Of course he could be friendly, but we want you to keep a lookout. I have found a new meadow, in a clump of beech trees near the stream, and you may venture there to graze. That is all I have to say- oh, and that is Black Rose, a neighbor. She is staying with us until it is pronounced 'safe'. Welcome her." he dipped his head to Serenity and backed off the rock, letting her speak if she needed to close the meeting, and winking at her. "Did I do okay?" he asked nervously.
