Run. Kate. Run.
The two words were all Lee needed to carry on.
He spent every night pouring over the map, studying the properties. It had been a month since he woke up on the riverbank and wasn't much closer to finding home.
Everytime he thought of Kate though he tried to figure out who she was, what she meant to him and whether or not she was worried about him.
And then one night he had a dream.
There was a horse running wildly along a dirt road, passed a sign above a letterbox, but he couldn't see much of it, just the bottom with the name 'T.C. McLeod.
Next he saw horse yards, smaller than those at Carmichael's, but still well maintained.
Then as he listened to the rain beat down on the roof, Lee watched himself kiss a woman on the cheek /i/ Kate /i/ and head out the door after winking at her.
He woke with a start as his mind rapidly filled with memories.
His name was Riley Ward, he lived and worked at Kilarney. He'd spent time in the army and loved horses.
There was so much water. Everywhere, everything was so wet. He couldn't quite tell where he was, all he knew was that he was under water and he needed to get out.
The water was so dark and unclear, it stung when he opened his eyes so he had to close them straight away.
Feeling with his hands he managed to unbuckle his seat belt and push his way out of the driver's side door.
Reiley began floating down the river. He wanted to call out to Grace, Patrick, to Taylor, but he couldn't. He needed to get back to see Kate again, but he was to weak to fight the current.
"Reiley!" he could hear... Grace calling to him, but he couldn't call back, couldn't get to shore, find her and say he was alright. So he just continued floating downstream with the current; one thought on his mind, getting back to Drover's Run as soon as possible.
Riley - he now knew why he thought his name was Lee - had to get back to Kate. Had to tell her how he felt.
"First thing," he decided. "First thing tomorrow I'm going to Drover's Run."
