    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

    His Father.
    The Anchor, The Storm. 
    The King - even if he didn't go by that. 

    The dark man stands in the distance, his watchful eye surveying the kingdom he is sworn to protect, his body in stark contrast with the greens blues of the world around him. Levi approaches at a leisurely pace, closing the expanse of the grassland between them at a swinging walk.

    As the son halts beside his father he looks out across the prime grazing land he had grown up on. The knoll on which the pair stand provides them with a sweeping view of Tephra's largest island and the mottled stallion takes note of which horses he sees scattered there. Levi had crossed paths with many of them, become acquainted with several, but he needs to know more. The first half of his time in Tephra had been learning her every rise and crevice, he had only just begun to acquaint himself with his countrymen. 

    But today he does not push himself to meet a new face, instead, he seeks out an old one. 
    "What do you look for when you stand up here." His gaze doesn't leave the sea of grass, he is mildly engaged watching two yearling dance together in the sunshine of mid-day, but his ears and true focus remain on the ebony stallion at his side. 

    He may never be able to truly emulate the man who stands beside him, but he still had much to learn from his father. Levi's year in Thepra had changed him nearly as much as the previous year running wild had. The motteled stallion was more supple now - and ready to take on any challenges the kingdom may have in store for him.

    so scream you, out from behind the bitter ache.
