After a five-day break, Inferno went back to work. Nix released Jiggs from his petrified state before stopping to see how Barnabas and Nightmare were doing. His stablehand Rand was sitting on the fourth rail of the corral.

"Hey, Boss."

"How's Nightmare doing?"

Rand shook her head slightly. "It's like you said, she's in heat. All indicators point to her being bred... I'm just not sure how."

Nix chuckled and kept walking toward the Keep. "I'll explain how everything works later."

Rand stared at her boss as he walked away before feeling her face slowly turn red. "I know how that works, " muttered to herself before looking at Barnabas. "He's got no thingie!"

Leva was waiting near the entrance to the Dragon Fir tree. Her dark eyes followed Nix's every step. "I've got preliminary scouting reports from Colonial and Oasis."
