The sand sucks your feet into it, and your legs ache, already, from your few steps, and your horse, fed less and worked more… but you can walk, with the men. You will walk, for the boy must ride. Small pale thing, half-buried in sand. It seems almost kind, to leave him to oblivion, to his rest, in the sand’s soft bed. But Alexander must have what Alexander needs, and Alexander needs the boy. The boy from the hills beyond Pella sheathes his half-drawn dagger and you stumble forward the last few steps and force your parched throat to speak.
