Golden Leaf Stables was still and quite as rain fell silently on the roof of the stables. From far away you hear the sounds of wolves howling in the Shadowy Hills. For some reason the small village felt almost mystical. The night was young and a stable girl lied in the inn trying to fall asleep. Something was keeping her awake, something that she felt was important. She tossed and turned and pulled the sheets over her head. She lied there thinking about what could possibly be keeping her so empty... empty of knowledge. What was this feeling? Why is the rain getting harder and the wind howling louder? Her heart beat heavily in her chest and she felt as though she couldn't close her eyes. She sat up in her bed and gazed at the window. Slowly she pulled the sheets off of her, and sat at her bedside. She stood up and walked towards the door. Reaching her her hand out she grasped the door handle. She stood there for a while breathing heavily. Finally she got the courage to open the door to the howling wind and rain. She stepped out into the middle of the stable grounds, and looked up at the sky as the winds rushed around her and rain dropped down her clothes. Suddenly she herd a whinny of a horse. She looked in the direction of the noise. She got the feeling that this horse was fine... it didn't need to be rescued, this horse was.... was special. Why did she think that? How does she know? She wasn't sure, but she knew that nothing was wrong... right now at least.
