The half-child hears Aurelia’s words to him, and appropriately glares at Midas’ in response to the comment about sand. After all, Midas’ is not his king anymore- what good does it do to pay respects to a creature who is so callous? However, for all his glaring, the half-child does not answer Aurelia’s question. Perhaps it is because he doesn’t actually know what he is- spy, scholar, something else? He’s too young to know and too hesitant to label himself as of yet. So, instead, he turns to Rei and shouts back at her, “Stop telling her what to do. You go live your life the way you want to and she can live hers the way she wants to.”

But does he really care about Aurelia, or are these mild bursts of anger in response to his frustrations about his own sense of self? Interestingly, it is now that Tobias chooses to send Adelric an image of his twin sister. What is the cervid trying to say- that Adelric is being strong and fighting back, that he has found some strength within himself that he usually finds within her? Adelric does not know, but now is not the time to have intimate discussions with the cerndyr.

The golden mare is speaking again, offering her history, but suddenly the colt is disgusted with her as much as the rest of them. The man in the sky dampening her fire, the painted woman telling her to act grown, the peahen who hovers there with shouting words of her own, and now Aurelia, who whines about her misfortunes in life like they’ve all been thrust upon her with no option to change. Well change! he wants to scream at her. Light up the land, emblazon yourself with fire, ignite this Africa who holds you back, make your own fresh start! But the words don’t come, because he is not motivating or brave or smart. For all he knows, his ideas are foolish and childish, headstrong and rash.

So he lets her walk away, does not call to her to stop or turn around. Instead, he takes a few steps towards Tobias, extending his nose to the cerndyr who reveals himself from the shrubbery to stand at the colt’s side. His mild anger still bubbles beneath his skin, and the colt finds that he isn’t really certain what to do about it. He has never been fiery like Zunden- he does not know how to handle this.
