*It was starting to get dark as I walked the grounds of the compound. As I neared the back, through the gardens and past the pool, I could hear Aunt Gabrielle's horse Lilly in the paddock. I smiled softly as I walked over and she came out of the open door to see me. I never understood why Aricand Kade were afraid of her, she never gave me trouble. When she came to the fence, I held my hands out, silently asking her permission to pet her. She gave me a little snort and placed her nose in my hands. Slowly I rubbed from her nose to ears and told her about my trip and how I had been keeping to myself lately but, promised her I'd bring her treats next time I came to see her.*
