Evie, As you may know, I do love a good Haldane Ritual. I must say that this is one of the best I have ever read. Very nicely done. And the events in the days that followed were good. I am glad to hear that Colin's mother is finally learning to accept that she has a grandson, regardless of the marital status of the boy's parents.
May your horses have wings and fly!

Thank you! It's always such a struggle for me to write the ritual scenes, so I'm always glad to know if I've managed to pull it off successfully.

There's nothing like knowing your son is headed off to war and not knowing for certain if you're ever going to see him again that tends to give a mother a clearer sense of perspective. No matter how much Soraya might disagree with some of Colin's choices, she wouldn't want to risk losing him without trying to bridge the rift between them before she misses her chance.
