Author: Apathan
Subject: Denial

Tumbling in, he collapses to the ground upon seeing the worst thing that could ever happen had happened.

Having struggled on the last of his strength to return to her, he instead crumples by the side of his fallen love, his mind sinking into ever greater tides of Hell.

But his last vestige of sanity grabs him by the throat and hauls him to his feet, eyes blazing madly as his mind grabs desperately for a solution through the blood-soaked haze. Think, Apathan! Remember your Power!

Of course. Sinking beside her, the lean, dull-hided bay presses his head, neck and 'shoulders' against her, fully yet lightly. From the depths of his heart comes every possible vestige of his golden Power... buttressed with half his soul. With every effort, with every possible strength, the stunning golden glow enters his love. Her soul... he thinks dimly. And there it is... cloistered deep within her heart, an ember, fading with every passing moment... but still there! With half of his own he flows into her soul, his battered, tainted spirit becoming one with the last traces of hers, and his healing Power grips her body. The cells restore themselves, duplicate, and are infused with a strange strength, one that was not even there originally. The power of a life-giving love.

Half a soul the poorer and every last ounce of his Power drained, the scrap of a bay stallion collapses comatose to the ground, half-dead.
