    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

    Even though Laurelin’s favourite part of any conversation is when he’s the topic of discussion, or when he’s the one talking, he does like listening to Chasmata talk too. The mention of a Silver Cove inspires some very pretty imagery.

    He catches how she trails off, and her comment about how she never went back to the Cove is confusing - he wonders what happens. But, once again, his thoughts are interrupted by a question and the gold-accented stallion forgets entirely that he had been thinking about something else.

    As for his answer, that does not require any thought at all. “The ocean.” And his grin grows a little at the thought of it. “I’ve always felt drawn to the water,” He glances away momentarily to look at the river, “but the ocean most of all.” He doesn’t know why this is, what it is about bodies of water that fascinate him. He doesn’t know about his father, and has already forgotten about the kelpie that he had met on the beach, and Laurelin is not one prone to worry about things he does not know about.

    Speaking of, one of the words Chasmata said caught his attention. He was actually listening to them all (you can quiz him if you want!) but there was one he didn’t know.

    Curiosity about others was still new to the blue boy but he finds that it is becoming easier around his pretty friend - he’s not even faking it! “What’s a gatekeeper?”
