| She crouched on the boulder, down below was the one she'd been searching for, she could feel it in her heart, but he was unaware of her soft presence, going about his life under her watchful gaze. " And I don't want the world to see me... Cause I don't think that they'd understand..." The tender lyrics were scarcely above a tearful whisper. She was terrified that he'd hear her, see her, and scorn her. "When everything's made to be broken... I just want you to know who I am... But I'm so afraid..". A lone tear trickled down her golden cheek, long years of working in the fields with her brothers and father as well as long nights practising with weapons had hardened her to everything but him.

"Good boy Eclipse, tomorrow we'll be doing less, maybe I'll even find a nice place to board you up, until then boy, stay with me." Moments later she was lying beside the stallion, using his warmth as her blanket and his flank as her pillow |
