Will is content. She is healed and full of life.
The vow she made has been fulfilled and now her father's death and those of
many others have been avenged.
It had only been a few weeks that Will had known the knights and her new
friends, yet it felt like years.
After the battle at Badon Hill, they had found Lancelot's body and true to his
word, Arthur had his body burnt and his ashes cast to a strong east wind.
Arthur and Guinevere had married to become King and Queen of Briton.Then only
days after the ceremony Will, Tristan, Gawain, Galahad, Bors and his family had
set off for home.
Before leaving Will said goodbye to her mother and the other Woads; many tears
were shed.
So now Will stands out in the middle of Sarmatia just at sunrise, bidding her
friend the stallion goodbye.
Tristan and the others are back sleeping at their camp after their long journey.
Will imagines that little Orlon would be just getting up to look for her now.
The grey stallion rears up and then nudges her shoulder friendlily. One tear
escapes from her eyes and lands on the stallion's muzzle.
She throws her hands around the stallion's neck and whispers in his ear-
"Goodbye old friend".
The stallion snorts sadly. He and Will have a bond, a bond of great
friendship.Will has much to thank the stallion for. He helped her when
everything was taken from her. He helped accomplish the task she had set for
herself, finding revenge.
Although some would think he is merely her stallion that she rode, he is not. He
is a free soul with a heart of gold and the courage of a lion.
The stallion whinnies and when he is released from her hug, he gallops off in
search of new adventures.
Will watches him go until she cannot see him anymore. She has a new life ahead
of her, a new challenge. Tristan was taking her to his village and maybe they would live there, she didn't know. But it seemed where ever they went, the others would follow and Tristan and Will didn't mind. They were all like family.
Vanora had asked wether or not they would marry and neither one had really given a definate answer but it was probably to come in the near future. Still Will knew her future was with Tristan no matter what and nothing could change that. He loved her, she loved him and they were happy.
Far off she can hear little Orlon running towards her and calling her name. She
turns around to see him following her and the stallion's tracks.
Then with one last sigh she runs to meet him.
