    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    She was used to saying something wrong. Outspoken and confident it wasn't uncommon for Will to enrage a sibling or even on a rare occasion, a mother. But most the time she saw that coming, most the time she did it -just a little bit - on purpose. 

    But this, this is something completely different. 

    There is a negative reaction, to be sure, but it's something she is unfamiliar with, and it's completely unintentional. Solemn and reserved he seems to withdraw under his own storm cloud. As he walks, lost in thought she would give anything to know what was going on behind his broody eyes and her own brow furrows. 

    When he speaks what he says only heightens the mystery. But she treads a little more carefully now, and when he changes the subject she is content to follow this new train of thought as he perks up. And she doesn't dare ask why he is thanking her, because he's smiling again and that's what she wanted.

    "This way," She calls as she springs into a gallop to match is own. She heads for a mountain pass where they are forced to squeeze between to cliff faces, shale tumbling away from her hooves as she slows to a trot. But as soon as the land is gently sloping and the soft grass of the inner basin is below them she is galloping again. She doesn't slow to allow him to take in the stunning landscape opening up before them, it had simply been the backdrop to her life. 

    The willow grove comes into view along the crystalline lakeshore and Will put's on another burst of speed, only ready to stop once she has reached the fabled willow cathedral.
