Ellyse’s eyes turned soft as she spoke, and Rou felt himself swell with anticipation. Her hazel orbs gazed into his, and he suddenly felt a weight lift off his tired shoulders. She pressed against him, urging his demons to float into the night air, up to the stars, to stay there forever. Her smile brought him a sort of peace he never believed was possible; he was a sea of emotions…but for once, the sea was calm.
“Come Rou, I will show you the way,” She murmurs, beginning to drift away. A mix of nerves and excitement courses through him, and he willingly follows her, hoping that the “volcanic oasis,” as Ellyse called it, would become his home…a place he could rest his head without the past coming to haunt him. He wondered if his mother would be proud of him for opening up to someone, for letting the past take the back burner, and instead look towards the future. He hoped that what Ellyse said was true – that he would be welcomed there. That they would look past the stallion that had been bruised by the past, and see someone with potential. He wasn’t sure what would happen…but he looked forward to finding out.
