He had waited, -patiently- through the heat and dust, rain and mud. It was an ever changing world, spinning on a delicate axel, and it slowed for no one.
When a pinto equine showed, on the blood stained lands, he did not know her. Never having laid eyes upon her, he is shocked when she spits accusations in his face as though she knew him. Deeming him not a Tephran. He had called it home once, just as history will have it written of hers -theirs.

He was grateful to not have to spend another cold season in the Taiga. His face outstretches to feel the warmth of a sulfur breeze.
