[complete] Event 1 Task 2

[Khaedrik]

Not all doubts can stand sunlight; nor can dissolving; dissolute Khaedrik who hates the blister of sun-kiss and sun-slap. He; malcontent and uneasy under the gazes of the onlookers staring down at him from above. All he wants to do is wrap himself in darkness and disappear from this place, but alas it is a luxury he does not have. His muscles twitch with unease; far from the archetype of some courageous gladiator about to perform tasks of glory and honor. But Khaedrik wills straining muscles into movement; towards tree and serpent. Oh, he fears no silly snake - for he brings his own, made of shadow and malice. The thing, with eyes gleaming yellow-bright and ominous. His shadow snake hisses a warning to its brethren- made of far flesh and muscle, and Khaedrik simply steps between the two. Fearless and brash, to pluck an apple from the tree. The snake coils, ready to attack but he is too fast; for what is there to fear when he can teleport away in the blink of a reptile-eye? None. None at all. And so it is that Khaedrik offers the golden apple to the goddess. Like stealing candy from a child.

The horse you seek is the mighty destrier.
