It was unbearable. The heat smeared lands layed out before him and the Doctor was beginning to miss the gusty cliffs already. So far, d'Artagnan saw nothing appealing about this land. It was too desert like and too open, not great for ambushing and d'Artagnan didn't like an open battle. Calculating eyes searched the land and its advantages and disadvantages, keeping a guard up for any resistance as he walked through.
Their herd hadn't been moving much of late and numbers worried the red stallion, he had come out to investigate neighbouring lands to occupy his restless mind. His glass horn glinted in the sun and sent all sorts of colours shifting down it.
As he moved further he began to wish someone would come out, he could taste blood in his mouth in anticipation. He felt weak in ability recently and it angered his dark soul, the weaker he felt the further away the Moon seemed. "Blasted sun and this cowardly land!" Anger was beginning to get the better of him and his walk turned into a stomp. d'Artagnan tried to rein in his fury, reminding himself why he was here.
Finding a rare tree off to the side, d'Art turned to stand under it. His head pounded and his mood became more cloudier.
