Loyal stallion returns to the palace of his Goddess and kneels at the foot of her shrine. Manhattan's mind, like a soothing whisper, reminds him of his sanity and place in the world. Even now, with his family torn apart by challenges and herd divisions, he remains faithful to his companion. Nothing will ever tear them apart, Knox thinks. They are a part of each other- with the other, they are at last complete.

But still the urge to complete the task given to him by the Moon, to learn of the past and become it, is burgeoning. He paws at the earth as he rises from his bow, lets his heavy hooves laden with feathers scrape the stone and leave faint white traces of their presence. Betwixt his lips he grips the bone of his father; an offering to her holiness. He waits upon her arrival now, longing to see her once more, hoping that she truly does watch over him; care for him.

The hairs of his coat stand on end in the cold night wind; anticipation and custom turn him blind. Manhattan howls softly into the night. She is braver than before, perhaps even stronger and bettered by her loss. But still she is jealous of her master's attentions- still she envies the Goddess of the Moon and wishes her to leave her stallion's thoughts. Her tail sways and her legs carry her forward. Knox stands dumb and blind; proud and majestic but still submissive. She skulks forward into the darkest of shadows, bears her teeth in the face of the shrine. She feels no fear, she only waits for the world to strike her down.

Such a young thing- so much more brave than her master.
