The Moon Tribe I

Indeed, on the 3rd day there was my bracelet, Cedric helped me to keep everything in a more or less big bag, and what could not be taken I sent it to the castle and decided to look for it later, I kept the letters in a little bag that the horse had, I had no saddle because I wanted him to continue feeling free even though he would be far from his herd but I did not know whether to let him go or take him with me, so I decided to leave him to fate.

The next morning we were about to leave so I made breakfast, Ruby had breakfast and waited outside with Veloz, Licht was already more than awake and had breakfast calmly, Love by his side appeared with a beautiful canary similar to him only his fur was green so I knew he wanted to go with us, when I went to look for Thunder I didn't see him but I knew where he could be.

When I was about to look for him something incredible happened, Thunder was coming along with the leader of the herd and 4 other horses, I called Cedric and when he saw my gesture he ran and while I indicated him where to go he looked curiously at what was happening, when Thunder arrived in front of me I saw that he lowered his head as an apology and when I touched him his heart was racing a thousand per second.

I sensed that they had only run to get there in time, but when I felt him shaking I knew that something strange was happening, so I went with Cedric and we saw the rest of the group of the dead herd, I only saw him for 2 seconds and then I turned my face to another place and I cried like I cried once years ago, Cedric I don't know how he had the stomach to see that and then calming me down he told me

Cedric: Zafi we must bury them.

I did not utter a single word so I nodded and he went with the Grizzlies to ask them for help, Daven who was walking with his mother when he saw Cedric ran to where Cedric told him to be and when he saw Rain I ran to his arms and cried some more, Daven who could not believe it asked them to bury the horses in their land, so among the bears they carried them and buried them with a tombstone.

When I got to the horse that was the leader I could only say to him: I am sorry.

As a tear touched my cheek, he did not hesitate to approach me and make me hug him. After we were ready to leave I stood in front of the tombstones and looked for some flowers and said a few words of farewell.

The leader of the horses for some reason agreed to follow me, I think he wanted to look for a new terrain to continue with the herd, I really didn't know why, but I felt it was the most logical thing for them; Cedric was very attentive to me since he knew how fond I was of the animals and how emotional I was, I passed by beautiful places, one full of pure pine trees.

Another one where there were huge herds of elk with tall and robust trees, there were also large herds of deer, a few free cows and sheep, as it was getting late in the afternoon I asked him to spend the night here, although we had walked and others were carrying us, it was already very tiring for them, we dismounted and looked for a place near the river so that the horses could refresh themselves and we could do the same.
