[Belle woke up early in the morning feeling a sudden wave of home sickness she hadn't felt in months. But it wasn't Beast's castle that she longed for, but the small cottage she had lived in with her father and their small assortment of animals.

It's this feeling that brings her to the stables. She's only been here a handful of times since arriving to accustom herself with the horses and to take one out for the occasional ride. Things have been so busy she hadn't been able to come by recently.

She spends most of the morning feeding the horses treats and keeping them company. Eventually she gets one saddled and goes for a ride through the forest, though she's careful not to ride out too far from the village. People may catch her during her ride, or they may come upon her while she's at the stables before or after her ride.]

[After she finishes brushing down the horse she took out for a ride, she decides to sit down and pull out her journal. She has a question she would like to ask the village.]

Good afternoon, Luceti. I should also welcome all of the New Feathers who have arrived. My name is Belle. I have a question I would like to ask everyone, out of mere curiosity, nothing more. So no one should feel pressured to answer. But how many of you had animals you cared for back home? Or do you have any here in Luceti? And if neither of these, what kind of animals are your favorite?

As for myself, I grew up caring for my horse, Philippe. I suppose that's why I feel so comfortable around horses. I miss him every day...[She pauses for a moment before continuing, sounding more upbeat.]

Well, I'm curious to hear everyone's answers.

[She's a little surprised when he mentions his brothers. They're aren't what she would consider as a 'pet'.]

Ah, yes. I know of her. Do you visit him at all? Soren, I mean.

[Oh, they're pets alright.]

Uh huh, almost every day. He's family too. Is Philippe [He's so saying that wrong sorry Belle.] your family? Because it's kind of the same way with Soren.

I would consider him part of my family, yes. I've had him since he was very young. I don't believe anyone can have a pet without considering them part of the family.

I mean, you need to care for them and look after them. Just like with a family member, right?

[You are in his good favor. Good good.]

Yeah. Something like that. They're more like my partners than my pets, because I fight beside them, but I can understand. They take care of us too.

Yes, they do. Philippe has tried to help me out a lot in the past. My father too.

Are horses common in your world?

Yes, very common. They're a popular way to travel.

Even around Galpos, there's not a lot of them... Back in my world. There's a lot of them in Sania, which is pretty far away from the big cities, so I hadn't really seen any until before I came back here. There are trains and stuff.

Trains? It sounds like your world is a little more advanced than mine. We don't have trains. The only ways to get around are on horseback or a horse drawn wagon. Or walking of course.

I prefer walking! Lady-- I mean Mathias, the woman who took care of me in my world, didn't mind them so we used them to get around. They were loud and it sucked. [The thought of her sickens him, really. It used to be so nice, to call her Lady Mathias. Bleh.]

Hmm, I would still like to see one someday. Ones that aren't pictures in books. [Although that will never happen unless she sees one here in Luceti.]
