Ingress is more alarmed by Harrow's passive demeanor than by anything else she's done or said so far.
"Terribly cute fluffy things that strike horror into the hearts of all," she says, her cajoling a reflex at this point.
There are some benches scattered outside the stable, and Ingress leads Harrow to one. "Hold on a tick, all right?"
She disappears into the stable and a few moments later she comes out leading a thestral. She's not sure whose thestral it is, but the fellow caring for the stable today said it would be fine to take it out for some air. He even had some chunks of meat for Ingress to feed it as a treat.
"This is a thestral," Ingress says, bringing the bat-winged, skeletal horse closer - but not too close. "They're from Tom's world. You can only see them if you've witnessed the death of another."
