    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

    His blue-ringed ears flick toward the sound. A pair of stallions, both of them bay, but one with roaning and a metallic mane whom the other seems deferential to. Pteron recognizes this in the way he holds back, the way he allows the more decorated stallion to speak without interruption. Unfocused by this brief but attention-consuming fact, Pteron forgets to hold on to his invisibility.

    With his wings puffed around him for warmth and his nose tucked to his chest, the yearling colt is nothing but feathers, four legs, and a pair of olive eyes focused on the two strangers. Even when he realizes he’s been spotted, the dun colt does not move. There are protocols to follow when visiting a foreign land, he knows, he’s forgotten them. Mother had covered that topic on a very sunny summer day, and Wombat had been doing somersaults to taunt him just out of Lepis’ line of sight. Instead of introduce himself or apologize for tresspassing in their home (because he assumes that this must be their home – they smell of ice and snow as much as horse) Pteron answers only Leilan’s questions.

    “I’m cold. How do you live here all the time. I think my nose might have frozed off.” Well, perhaps a bit more than just an answer to Leilan’s question.
