(309) Keeping which horse he is using vagueee. 8O[/html]
Even when they were hours beyond Cercatori d'Arte, still was not used to the beast he was riding on top of. He liked horses well enough, he guessed, since he had taken a liking to Grace and her foal, but striding them was a whole other story. The rocking of a horse's movements and the jerking and his height away from the ground, where heavy hooves laid--well, it didn't add up well with Robert. But, he knew this was the fastest way to travel, and while he had agreed to visit Eclipse's relatives in Vinátta, he wanted to return back as soon as possible when it was time to leave, not liking to be away from the familiar, loving home for too long. So, he dealt with his inner discomfort with a silence.
He noticed that Grace and Eclipse were pressing close, and while he found that comforting, he knew her horse wasn't exactly happy with it, and soon they pulled apart a bit. An ominous breeze pushed by, and he looked up at the sky, calculating a guess of what was going up there. He decided it was rainstorm, but something about it seemed off. But, before he could focus too long on it, the woman spoke up, and he tore his gaze away from the sky. "Here? Why don't you like it here?" He didn't like the place either, but it was only because he disliked anything that wasn't Cercatori, and he knew Eclipse must have had a legitimate reason than the fear of the unknown. What ever the case, her words made him more aware of his surroundings, wondering if it was something out here she did not like, and encouraged the horse with a press of his heels to keep a few steps ahead, but his body more or less remained leveled with her's.
