River backed up a few more steps, not noticing him, and nearly fell into him. She spun around, reaching for her sword, then realized it was just him. She straightened back up and removed her head from her sword. "Sorry, Horius. I didn`t see you there. I was listening to the wolves..." Her voice drifted off, embarrassed that she had nearly fell into him.Horius disappeared deeper into the cave, until there was only darkness around him. He closed his eyes and reflected on the day in the solace of the cave, with no distraction. He admitted as he did each day, he was broken. He spread his wings, stretching them as he returned back to where River was, quietly calm.
