“Oh Hypatia… I am Earth. I am built of sand, of rock, of the desert as a whole, but the heat will always be yours to hold. I can only bask in her sun and feel her warmth curl around me. I can only love her for the diversity I cannot see, but can feel.”
Xolotl breathed as they spoke, the mourning light of the fire mare cradled against his breast as he cushioned the blow she’d received. But there was power growing within the gray mare’s body, fearsome power he could feel as her body pulsed against his own – the heat of her fire blossoming against the cool green of his Earth as they stood together on that blustery day. “Viper, Jaeger, Wolf, Harpy, Mermaid… I don’t care who or what you represent I will always cherish you for you Hypatia. Don’t ever change, please.” His vocals were hushed against the thick tangles of her mane as he stood relaxed with his peaceful eyes shut. They were eyes far from the strange milky white of most horses, a sightless bronze that glittered there but flashed white in the pupil when the night came and the light of the moon illuminated them – the only hint of his blindness. The great golden stallion lead with his heart, lead with his love… It was his destiny and his life that he had happened upon Hypatia, the mare that had become an Oracle that had become a Queen.
He’d love her forever.
Wordlessly of course.
But the devotion would always be there.
“You could never fail me.” At long last he replied as if as an after thought, for truly the question was one of those that never needed an answer. Xolotl would not be easily thwarted by the way the mare of fire had gone towards her element. But Xolotl had no place in Wolfrange. He was invisible there just as he had been in Jaeger Reef, but to Hypatia never was he invisible. She would always see him. “Tell me the colors of the sunset over the desert? I wish to see them, I wish to see your beauty…”
