Author: Ebony Knight and Roshaun
Subject: ..:Guard the Light and fear not Darkness:..

An infant's wail broke the silence. The shrill cry was heartbreaking to even the strongest man. A baby? Out here? The idea seemed unreal. Yet there, beside the glimmering lake, lying upon the soft grass was the small child, only four months old. Even stranger than this, was the presence of a black stallion named Ebony Knight. His frame of 17hh stood quietly over the infant, as if guarding it, much like a knight guarding a castle. The steed's ears swiveled atop his head as his eyes kept watch over the surroundings. His senses were heightened to the max, aware of even the slightest breeze rustling the grass. The stallion then seemed to sense a change in weather and adjusted his position so that the child was completely sheltered from the rain threatening to fall from the dark clouds above.

Questions remained unanswered with this odd picture. What was an infant doing alone out here? Why was this pure black steed so faithfully guarding it? There was a deep vein of mystery pulsing through it. There was a story needing to be told and questions to be answered. Answers that were, in fact, supernatural. Whoever came to claim both steed and child... would find themselves in a story beyond their imagination.

The boy-child's cries had hushed now. He started to fall back into an innocent slumber. As the sky opened and the rain fell, the stallion refused to move from his post. His instructions were to wait here until a human came, and to stay with the child for all of his days. The temperature dropped quickly with the rain. To make sure the infant stayed warm, the stallion often bowed his head between his legs and blew warm air onto the boy's face. The hours would pass and darkness would soon come... but they would both remain. They would remain and wait for the future to come.
