Now that you knew Ilios lived here too, you began to feel a little better about your decision to come live amongst those of the Dragon’s Throat. Another friendly face had done wonders for your spirits, and you had taken to exploring your new home with more interest than before. Perhaps even the tiniest seedling of hope had begun to sprout in the deepest corner of your heart, the dream of starting fresh awakened by the sunshine of the welcoming smiles you had received here.
 
After a night of some of the most peaceful sleep you’d had in weeks, you opened gray eyes to bright light. You were covered in a light sweat, but this morning, it was not an unfriendly reminder of any nightmare but the simple consequence of the sun that was already beating down on your back. You would have to get used to the lack of forests in this place, but if they were willing to take you in as they had, you could adapt. Stretching lightly, you shook what sand you could from your copper and cream coat and ambled towards the oasis for a drink of water.
 
After a few minutes of travel across the sands, you reached your destination and waded into the lake. Sighing softly, you let the cool water soak into your skin, then lowered your head to drink greedily. As you raised your head to look around, liquid dribbled from your chin in cool, crystalline drops, plunking into the lake with quiet drips. Aside from a light breeze and the rustle of the dry grasses flanking the lake, it was rather silent here—unusual, you thought, for a place that must be the very lifeblood of this herd’s existence. Where was everyone? you wondered, ducking for another drink. And perhaps more importantly, where was Bucephalus? You were aware that he had herd business, but it seemed to have carried him away for almost the entirety of your residence here. You had hoped that he might have introduced your to some of your new herdmates, but in his absence, it looked like you would have to meet them yourself. Now, if only you could find them…
