Looking up from the flower Luna turned around and smiled brightly at her old friend. And his griffin. Although the creature didn't look much like the griffin's of her world, nor did he seem to talk, it was nice to feel some comforts of Equestria.
"Kaltxi, ma Jake. Ngaru lu fpom srak?" she said after taking a few steps to meet him and return the greeting. Twenty years on a prosperous island full of friendship and laughter and you learned a few phrases from all walks of life. Luna couldn't say she was fluent in any language other than English but she had collected the most important phrases of her friends. It seemed the polite thing to do; to speak to the people on their own comfort level.
