Mayonette smiled at Thomas. Yes, he was here and that meant that there was something right with the world. "Thank you Thomas. You merely being here has eased my pain," she told him softly.

They rode towards the house and finally reached the stable. She couldn't remember the stable boy's man, but she remembered his face. She smiled. The place hadn't changed since she had been there last. There was some comfort in that fact.
As soon as she and her horse were safely inside the stable she dismounted and handed the reigns over. The mare neighed softly. She smiled and stroked the horse's face. Then she turned to wait for the others.
