[RHINESTONE.]

RHINESTONESTAR ❝ RHINE ❞ LEGATE
"TALKING" || "TELEPATHY"

Lucent's presence may have been a new one, but it certainly wasn't one that went unnoticed by the majority of The Palm Glades. For a while, the camp had been peacefully quiet as members milled about, talking about various subjects, eating their daily meals and occasionally play fighting or training if the occasion arose. However, the entire place seemed to light up with activity as someone noticed a pair of newcomers arriving from the water. It started with a few frantic whispers, excited exchanges wondering where the mysterious canine had sailed in from. As Lucent had grown closer and eventually come ashore, the whispers had evolved into outright excited chattering, catching Rhinestone's attention and causing the legate to raise his head. It was rare that they had someone actually sailing in from another place. It wasn't unusual for them to have various newcomers wash up on their shores, disoriented and soaking, but Lucent didn't seem to be in that particular group. Instead, it seemed as though she knew what she was doing, especially if her rickety and hastily constructed raft was anything to go by. Rhine had to wonder if she had actually meant to come to the Glades, or if it was just where she had washed up.

Either way, the male found himself thoroughly intrigued, moving away from his den and slipping out of the group's sandy main camp. Her rasping words were direct and friendly, which caused Rhine's pelt to settle slightly, a bit of a smile coming to his face. It seemed as though she had meant to arrive here, even if she hadn't known that The Palm Glades would be her ultimate destination. Once he grew close enough, the dark blue serval found himself purring, his pitch black eyes briefly closing as he spoke, "Hello there, Lucent. You've washed up on the shores of The Palm Glades. We'd be more than happy to welcome you into our ranks, if you're looking for a place to stay." Her talk of an island far away was certainly intriguing, but there would be time to discuss that later. For now, Rhinestone just wanted to make sure that she felt comfortable, and maybe get some food into her. He didn't know how long her journey had been, but he couldn't imagine she had much to eat during it. With this in mind, he introduced himself simply, "My name is Rhinestonestar, and I'm the legate, or leader of the group. I can lead you back to camp, if you'd like. I'm sure that others will come to say hello" If the excitement going on within camp was anything to go by, Lucent would get plenty of welcome.
