"Dust becomes us all, in the end,
and when it blows free, so do we."

I thought of you. The words rung in his ears. Orhan found himself lost in her eyes for a moment, wondering... but then the moment was gone, and he looked away, embarrassed.

A fly buzzed lazily around his face, its silvery body catching the sunlight and making it gleam like a tiny, precious jewel. Orhan tossed his head to disperse it, and looked out at the late afternoon sky. From where they stood nestled in their shady little glen, the blinding white disc of the sun was not visible, but its golden rays grazed the crest of the dune they'd climbed to get here, forming an ethereal veil of light above their heads. The land was quiet, and they were alone. The young stallion experienced another jolt of anxiety at that fact. Fate had brought her here, but what was he supposed to do now?

Thankfully, the conversation moved on, pulling him from the swamp of his thoughts. He bit his bottom lip, considering how truthfully he might answer her question. "To get away," he finally replied enigmatically. Perhaps one day he would tell her the whole story.

His mind turned to Bayard again, and he could not help himself. He wanted to know more about the stallion who had almost pulverized him that day, and what his relationship to Arcana was. "So, um, does Bayard know you're here?" He blinked up at her curiously. In his mind, the brabant stallion was a slave driver, keeping all his pretty trinkets close and forcing them to pump out foal after foal without rest, a monster who would punish Arcana when she returned. Terrible as it was, he almost wanted it to be true, just so he could know that he had one advantage over him.
