Moons' Dreaming (Children Of The Rock) - Plot & Excerpts
Contrary to their hopes of the morning, but in keeping with his father’s more recent mood, the clouds had darkened as they had struggled to unload Kessit’s stonewood at his shop. By midafternoon the rain had begun. Tob hated unloading in the rain. Every time they moved the tarp to get at one item, water leaked in somewhere else. Tob was certain his boots had doubled in weight from the mud they picked up in one farm yard after another. Everything took longer than usual, no one invited them in for a drink or something to eat, and Stockings’ always questionable ability to watch where she was going deteriorated completely in the wet. This meant Jordy had to squelch along beside her, one hand on her halter to guard against her stumbling to her knees in some puddle. That left Tob perched on the driver’s seat, reins slack in his hands, guilty because he couldn’t help with the horse, miserable with the damp. He wondered if it was raining where Pross was. Would he learn to fight on horseback, and go galloping across the country, taking other young people away from their homes?
