Phoebus
Doing what was lawful did not always coincide with doing what the heart desires.
He felt this, as he led Karat tearfully away from her brother, her blood. An aching that would never quite go away, and he knows this first hand; he hasn’t seen his family in many moons.
Father, dead. Mother, vanished. The brother he’d met briefly, gone with her. It never got easier. And on nights he was alone, he wished he was a foal again, curled up between his mother and father beneath the thicker of trees.
They arrive on the beach just before dawn, crossing the land bridge while Trekori flew. He would have to stay for a while for low tide to come again, so he decides to enjoy the scenery for a moment.
It doesn’t feel much different than Tephra, but the view is foreign. Towering palms and parrots calling their morning songs, no wonder so many people have chosen to live here as of late. He turns to Karat, sighing.
“I’m sorry, Karat,” He repeats again, as if this time it’ll garner more response. “Please talk to me. I’m sorry, I know how hard this is.” The emotional damage she has faced at the hands of Kori he isn’t aware of, only of the absence of her family.
