Jakub stood along the edge of the field. He watched as horses with out homes roamed the land. He watched as recruiters made pleasantries. He watched as agreements were made, and some offers turned down with an apathetic nod of the head, recruiters moving on to their next attempt.
It had been here that Magnus had met him and had taken him under his wing. The beginning of everything. He had found a home and had come to care for it's residence and it's leaders. He vowed to protect that land and it's people, but had failed when it mattered most.
His dark blue eyes scanned the out cropping settling on a rather grungy looking man who seemed to exclude himself from the rest. Scars streaked his hide and one particularly deep one ran from the base of his ear, down across his eye and stopping at his jaw bone. The tip of his right ear was gone the remainder tattered as if it was ripped from his head.
Jakub made his way around the field, sticking to the border hoping to avoid the nomads and the recruiters. His ears swiveled forward focused on the battered stallion. As he got within speaking distance, he could see more clearly that the eye with the unruly scar was ghosted over, blind.
Hello, avoiding the afternoon rush? he asked motioning towards the center of the field. Don't worry I'm not here to recruit. And I already have a home. he had hoped he could make the conversation light before exposing why he really came over.
JAKUB
and out he came, holding his brothers heel
