"Odysseus..." Fiore whimpered as he clung onto Odysseus for dear life, the harsh riding hurt Fiore more than anyone could ever imagine. "Odysseus..." Odysseus was riding too fast, the thumping noise of his feet hitting the ground blocked out all noises of Fiore, Odysseus was riding as fast as he could towards the nearest village, freaked out of his mind. Fiore managed to smile, despite being in an immense amount of pain, at Odysseus' speed, but Fiore needed Odysseus to stop. "Odysseus..." Fiore went once. "Odysseus..." Fiore went again. "Ody-... Odysseus..." Fiore went for the final time. Odysseus couldn't hear him, the clattering of his hooves on the ground was too loud. Fiore clenched his hands, sat up, grabbed a hold of the reins, and pulled back.

"ODYSSEUS!" Fiore yelled out at the top of his lungs. Odysseus, shocked at this, slowed down until managing to come to a stop. "Thank you..." Fiore said as he sat on top of Odysseus, who stood completely still, waiting for Fiore's next order. Fiore, however, was too preoccupied, he could feel something unraveling. Fiore touched the bandages, and they were slowly coming off, he needed to change them. 

"Odysseus, I know you're afraid," Fiore said, Odysseus interrupting him with an loud neigh, expressing his current state and emotions, which was that of being scared out of his mind. "We need to wait for the others, that means Allereun, Leifr, and the girl, okay?" 

Odysseus let out a soft nicker, agreeing with Fiore. Odysseus then put his head down out of shame while Fiore calmly awaited the three to arrive. "It's okay, boy, they'll come soon..."
