[private] Not All That Glitters is Gold[Jack and Phoebus]

At everyone's concurrence with the plan the peacock gowned mare heads east, Jack on one side, Phoebus on the other.  She expects there to be some awkwardness and so she tries to conjure up some conversation for the trek to the water border.  Her eye fixes on Jack as she tells him that Phoebus had been born in Tephra many years ago and that his father had died when he was very young.  That she had actually went to go find him when his father had returned from a diplomatic visit but couldn't find him anywhere.  When she returned, she found Rou had died and she had been looking for Phoebus ever since.  That that is why she was on the beach when Jack came across her.  She figured if she was on the beach she would find him one day, on his last day.  Of course, he never showed and now she knew why...

Her gaze then shifts to Phoebus with a smile as her stride continues.  To lighten the mood of the situation she jokes, "Well at least I found one missing child today." 

She wants to ask him where he has been all these years.  What he has done in his life and if he was happy.  She had missed so much of his life, and she wonders if she was partially to blame.  But she doesn't inquire further, not here, not now.  They would have time to catch up later.

Lowering her head slightly, her navy eyes turn to the saturated ground.  It had rained not too long ago, and the dirt was easily impressable.  They should be able to see tracks if anyone has been this way recently...

Not all that glitters is gold

@Jack in the Box 
@Phoebus 
There would be four sets of tracks if anyone wants to pick up on that part
