Bab 313: How Dare They Steal My Horse?

Just as Morpheus had taken a step towards the river, he noticed that the two young men were still nowhere in sight. He looked around. "Why are those two still not returning?"

When Ember heard him, she looked towards the place where Erlos and Aureus were sitting a while ago. She stood up with a furrowed brow. "Erlos and Aureus left? I didn't notice. They were here just a while ago…"

Morpheus didn't have a great feeling about their prolonged absence, and then heard Ember ask, "Where is Albina? Did they leave while riding her?"

"Albina?" he asked. 

"My horse. A beautiful white mare. Surely, you've seen her…" she replied but  panic settled in her body when Morpheus told her he had only seen Erlos' horse which was still munching on fresh grass at a distance from them. 

Morpheus sighed as he guessed what must have happened. "This is a problem when one steps on a foreign land while lacking experience. That kid, was he not aware this could happen?"
