Home appeared on the horizon and yet, there was still hours to go until they could be tucked away nursing their strains, bruises and travel wounds. It was certainly no normal feat travelling as far as they had and especially in their condition. Already their detour had cost them time, a detour which thank the four had proved useful in further healing their wounds, yet still Toulouse questioned whether to rest for the night or push through those last miles and attempt to get home. They were not at the mercy of any beast nor foul monster, but that of the gods.
In the north they were constantly keeling to the weather and it was this precipice that the unlikely trio now tread along as night rolled in. With a storm brewing to the east, one which Toulouse could only guess was filled with bone-chilling sleet, lightning and ice, again that vital question was posed. Should they find dally here and try to find shelter? What if they did not? Surely the tiger's victims would freeze right through - already they seemed as weak as an hour old foal.
Or should they press on and try to outrun the storm? They'd be flogging their already-acquired injuries, exerting themselves beyond most bodily function. With the end in sight, and the threat of death on their heels, who knows what they might be capable of.

The Theif's hoof stomped deep into the earth, his sweaty head craning back towards his followers. A decision had to be made, and it had to be made soon. Now.
The threat of brontide loomed, quaking the earth beneath him with every rumble. How dreadful it would be to become caught in such a storm. He had no doubt it would mean death for them all.

The decision was made.

"We must hurry!"
The pale one boomed over the crackle and smack of lightning "To be caught in that storm will mean the death of us all"
And with that the gelding took his feet to the earth, pressing onward up the slope towards his home. He trotted where he could through the varied terrain only allowed for his exhausted, heavy footsteps.
Over one more hillock and the arch would be in sight, he knew it.
"Are you both alright!?" He called below, finally reaching the summit. The slope, for now, was gradual and flat towards the arch, the kind that wouldn't require half as much energy. He did hope, however, that help was watching, and that the flock he lead had managed their ascent without injury.
A raindrop, iced and cold pattered upon his rump; It had caught them.
