    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

    [complete]  Event 3 Task 1

    A race? It's so simple. For a moment the dun frowns.

    By the time she is lined up with her competition, the frown has turned into a smile. She is loose-limbed and at ease, and when the Goddess finishes her countdown, everything else disappears. This is the same as running on the beach, she thinks as she gallops, but the ground here does not such at her hooves, and the wind does not buffet her sleek figure.

    Running is what she was made for.

    Starlin has no horn or wings to weigh her down; there is nothing but the wind against her. Well, the wind at the dragon tail of the stallion ahead of her. She could go around him, but that would take more time, instead she barrels forward, timing her strides until she leaps forward, over the dragon tail. Starlin doesn't stumble - she has cleared taller and more treacherous obstacles in her daily runs along Nerine's coast. She does not look back, she only runs and runs and runs, until she is passed the finish line and lets out a joyful buck.

    The grulla mare is breathing heavily, but she feels she could run a dozen miles more.
