::She watches Flaming Myst, from afar, feeling his pain and his hurt, trying to understand why he threw away her love.::

Hating herself for having hurt him, her face still wet from recent tears, shed for him. Couldn't he see? Couldn't he see her love, her trust, her hope, dimmed now, her trust and hope of a new life with him, almost gone, replaced with a pain, a pain of knowing forever more of her failure...::

::Her shimmering orbs to fasten themselves on Black Fire, or Emchantress. She looks at the mare for a moment, making not a noise, fearing to anger her as she had before.::

::She turns and begins to walk in the other direction, thoughts roaming at will across her mind. Flaming Myst... I hate to hurt him.... it pains me so.... but what was wrong with me? What made him look down upon me as he told me he could not love me? What made him throw away all he had worked for, my trust, my hope, and finally, the most valuable, love? Why? ::

::Feeling herself to be a safe enough distance so that Black Fire could not see her and be angered again, finally, she allows hrself the tears she has been holding, ever since he had said the words that had broken her heart, her spirit, her soul.::

::Collapsing on the hot sand in a heap, she cries out in angiush, and the desert sands seem to mourn her lost love with her. Hours, minutes, weeks may have passed without her knowing, as she cried, and finally, egsausted, fell into a deep sleep, underneath the merciless heat of the desert sun.::

::Awaking from a sudde dream, she pulls herself up, shakes her coat, and asks herself harshly. What happened to the spirited mare that ran with the wind? That raced the sun and moon, and spent her life alone? But she knew the answer. Love. It breaks you like a knife cuts through a broken body. It tsteals your spirit, your soul. She shakes away sudden tears, ad once again begins to walk, always away from Flaming Myst and Black Fire::

::Stumbling under the desert heat, she at last collapses to the sand on her knees. Once glittering coat now dull, once spirited eyes held no sign of life. It was like looking into a void. Long mane and tail mangled, they no longer seemed to float, but to hang, like dead weight.::

::She looks up to the sky, and suddenly screams out her pain, What is it all for?! What is life for if it is just to bring you down? What is love for? To fall in love means to go down the path of pain and betrayal! And... I can take it no more.... Desperately in love with a stallion who does not even returns any at all.... She turns her gaze to the sky, the merciless sun. Mother... Goddess.... I am returning to you.... Her eyes slowly close and her breathing shallows, another victimn of the desert. She remembers the first time she saw him, a strong figure shrouded in light. And she knew, that she would love him, forever and for all eternity, no mater how Black Fire may hurt her or threaten her. No matter how many times Flaming Myst proved he loved another. She had foolishly fallen in love... and would pay dearly for her mistakes...::

::Breath growing ever more shallow, she remembers her dreams as a child, and almost laughs. Love! Sun seeming to burn her, she can only think, This is not the way it shoudl be! I should not die here, alone, in the desert! No one willmiss me, no one will even notice... Fresh tears, tears she did not even know she had, rolled down her face, as she took her last few breaths.::

::Recalling once more that childhood dream, she almost wished it would happen, but somehow knew it wouln't. My love will save me in a time of need... She could almost cry again, had she the strength. Her love had another, and for that she would rest with the knowing that, she would, forever and eternally, love Flaming Myst.::
