   Summary

   He knows something is wrong the second the riders return.

   They’re subdued, faces shadowed. Even the teenagers look somber, giving each other nervous little side glances before they look away.

   The leader of the training group, Naya, walks up to him with slow, sorrow-laden steps.

   No, he thinks, mind whirring. Don’t come to me. Don’t stop in front of me. Don’t-

   He catches sight of a body bundled in cloth slung over the back of a horse: the beautiful paint mare Ellie rode out of the gates yesterday morning, turning around to wave at him until she was out of sight.

   (on a training patrol, ellie is kidnapped by fedra to experiment on her for a cure of their own) (a joel pov of 'no man's land,' but it's not necessary to read that fic first)
