Shoulders flexed the heavy collar along his neck; it was going to take some getting used to. ‘Wouldn’t Cera be surprised?’ He pondered with rising glee.
Joy fell away as pressing conscience turned thoughts back to pitiful and joyless company. It wasn’t that he was forgetful about the creature that followed, Midas found it overwhelmingly sad to see such blatant misery. Gazing backwards with sympathetic eyes he uttered softy, “Not much further,” the avian equine hadn’t a clue if the miserable pet could even understand him.
Realizing that it would be cruel to force the beast to travel any further he craned neck and summoned a roaring cry from the pits in his throat. Requesting a particular mare toward his direction, “I’m here, and need help,” it sang. Slowly his voice died out, the bray still echoing in the near distance. He was sure she would hear the distress in his vocal and come forth. They really weren’t that far from the oasis.
