Whisper was quiet as he came into the clearing, not that this was abnormal for him, for he never talked at all. He let his hooves thud along in the grass as he came across the cool lake. He swished his naturally docked tail and pricked his sorrel ears, becoming excited as he had been hot for this past week, and needed something to quench his dry throat.
He trotted happily into the lake completely, not caring about getting wet as he gulped down the water eagerly. He enjoyed its coolness on his back and happily went deeper to enfulge himself completely. He stopped once only his neck was above water, and held his breath to dip his head fully into the cool depths. Once resurfacing, he took a few more sips before turning around and heading towards shore.
Once out, he shook his coat that still had the texture of a foal's and began to groom his back and anywhere he could reach. Feeling clean after traveling for a while made him feel much better, and he thudded to a tall area of grass, perfect for hiding a foal even for such a size as himself, and plopped down to rest as he hid.
He awoke with a start as a dream had overcome him, but soon relaxed as he realized it wasn't real. His ears perked forward as he had yet to scent a mare, and his light tail gently flipped from one side to the next on the floor. He shook his large head and soon stood, his soft foal coat covered in damp grass. He snorted in disapproval and began to groom himself once again, his strokes slow and careful as he intended to get every piece of grass out. He snorted once more and swished his tail once again, before taking a look around the lake once last time. He sighed, feeling rather lonely now as no one else was there, and he slowly trotted off in search of a new home.
