    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

    Post: RE: this is a kindness you can't afford; Demi

    Despite his time spent in the Chamber, Ruhr has never been especially fond of the terrestrial lands of Beqanna. He visits them only for the sake of the Moon. Her visions come only while he stands on t...

    The dappled stallion listens to the pair of them converse, his responses non-verbal but polite. Demi takes on the burden of introductions, and Ruhr is content to hold his position beside her, a slight...

    The Moon is surely as different from this world as Stratos had been; Ruhr is no longer sure if her struggle for balance is due to unfamiliarity to this gravity, this shape, or this world. Perhaps it i...

    No, she tells him, and Ruhr frowns. She does not know she is from the Moon? Her words are hesitant, and he remains entirely focused on them and her, inattentive to all else. She does not know t...
