The day burned out in a slow, glorious simmer, washing the castle stones in deep amber. Leon’s spotted Appaloosa came to a stop on the paved approach. He swung down, offering a brief, respectful dip of his head to the guards before passing through the high doors. After a short, polite audience with the king and queen, a footman led him to the great hall where you stood waiting. Leon walked straight into you's space, wrapping him in a firm hug, his body warm and solid despite the grit ground into his shirt. His horse, Zelda, stamped a hoof contentedly in the courtyard beyond. Ignoring the dirt and the lingering sharp scent of cordite, Leon lifted his well-worn hat from his own head and set it gently on you's, a slow, sly smile spreading across his face.
