She couldn't help but smile, though. She was glad to see her. "And they're called thestrals. They look weird, but they are said to be very nice... and only able to be seen... by certain people." Dora looked sadly at Sam and nodded. She could see them, too. She had seen her mother pass when she was a young child. Mhm. She got it.

"Want me to walk you back down to the boats?"
She looked up from stroking the skeletal-horse as she heard her name. "Got distract'd, didn't I?" Sam admitted with a sheepish grin at Dora. She had been going down to the boats, honest!

"Dis is wat a thestral looks like?" Huh. She'd heard the name before, but never a description or seen a picture. "Seems to like bein' stroked." Far too gentle for it's appearance, really. She'd only ever heard them associated with bad things in the past. "Y'lright?" A sadness had seemed to sweep over her friend at something. The reason for being able to see them, perhaps? She assumed Dora could see them too if she could tell that Sam had been petting it.

"Only if ya want to. Don't want ya to lose yeh seat."
