Caitilin rode up to the castle in the very early morning. The sun was not up yet and the full moon was still visible and shining brightly. The night air was cool and she was invigorated by the ride.

As she appoarched the stables, she was impressed by their size and the fields beyond. She entered and was greeted by a stableman who assisted her. Caitilin slid gracefully from the saddle and walked Moondancer the the stall to which he had pointed. She unsaddled the silver-white mare and fed and watered her. While grooming her Caitilin spoke softly to the mare to calm her for it was a new place.

After grooming was completed, Caitilin patted Moondancers neck and searched in her satchel for a large red apple . It was a nightly ritual. She talked to the mare and they shared the treat. Cutting the apple with her dagger they both enjoyed the time together but Moondancer usually got most of the slices. Caressing the mare's head and receiving a friendly nuzzle she spoke. "Sleep well my dear friend. Dream tonight of running through the fields as free as we are when we chase the moon."

She turned to leave and received a gentle push from the mare's head. "This is no time for playing I am tired and we both need to rest." Caitilin reached up and hugged the neck of her stead and left to maker her my to her apartments.

An invitation had been sent. A rider now approached. Much was afoot in the kingdom, but one must remember to enjoy ones time on this orb. Duty was a harsh mistress but she would allow even her most driven devotee a moment now and again to relax.

It had been an invigorating ride South but now the castle and the stables loomed before him.



Jurisdiction had enjoyed the run. It had been to long since they last went on an extended ride together.

A short time my friend and we will be out again I promise. But I have respects to pay here.

Gregarious pulls up in front of the stable doors and scans the area for a stable boy
