    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

    He almost scoffs. Something in him had to be ambitious - he had heard the call. (And there is something of the prodigal son in him. It had been in there, once. The want to defend and to protect an...

    Post: RE: a burning star - round 1

    A dark-tipped ear flicks to the sound. It isn’t a call he knows. It is a horse he knows and yet the irritation that flickers across his ebony face is genuine. Kildare has had a lifetime of command...

    Magic is such a fickle thing. Kildare could fill his stomach full on that thought and still have more grass than he could chew. He had been born with this own magic - a birthright of his bloodline ...

    He isn't sure of Loess yet. But then, really, there is no place in Beqanna that he is sure of. He has roamed from North to South, East to West - skirting the kingdoms, listening to the tales, lear...

    He shouldn't smile as broadly at her as he does. It shows his youth, if not his full enthusiasm, for meeting Oriash. Kildare is normally better at keeping these emotions in check, in keeping himself i...
