mortification snapped at torgar's heels, and he crossed the borders of dawnbreak gladly. flight was all that galloped his thoughts, at least for now -- that saddened mind wildly tried to plan a hunt that would keep him away for several days, then decided the details did not matter. long legs plunged the embarrassed boy through the drifts below the packland; he ran and ran until he thought the golden eyes of the Mediator might no longer find him.
and love was ferocious in his spirit, and love was volcanic in his mind. broadening shoulders tipped snow forcefully from hanging branches as he ran between the trees, and in the collapse of white drifts, birds rose in a flurry of alarm and annoyance.
they veiled torgar for a moment, but as he blinked through their beating wings, he saw he was not alone. the sparrows soared away and he was left alone with the tall stranger whose immediate crime was reminding him of sólúlfur in her confident stance.
