* D'Aleen's song is lovely, seemingly reaching into the world about her, blending in with it.
As the song goes on...slowly in the distance you hear a different sound...
A more rhythmic, primal sound...
The sound increases...and you can tell that they are hooves, many hooves.
Into the courtyard from the path you had traveled comes in a grand herd of horses.
Very powerful, very raw.
They slow down near the center, yet staying with fear away from the pyre.
The Largest in the foreground approaches...
And in D'Aleen's soul she knows that he has offered his herds assistance in carriage.
And then he rears majestically in acknowledgement *
