    Summary

    In an attempt to put off the wedding for just a bit longer, Hans convinces Hanush to let him and Henry travel across Bohemia, and all the way to Poland to see the sea. What should have been a joyous trip with his best friend, is instead filled with tension that neither of them know how to breach. There are experiences Hans wants to try, and places he wants to be. There are talks he needs to have with this man he has come to see as something way beyond what the mere title friend can cover. Hans doesn’t want to talk about the future, but they have to.

    Where does Henry fit in in Hans' upcoming new life? Can Hans ask Henry to stay when there is nothing he can offer him? In a society where he will never be seen as anything else than others? Would it be kinder to let him find a place where someone like him could be free?

    At the coast of the Baltic sea, is a village. Its seas are filled with mermaids that drag down ships that cross their waters. Yet the villagers seem awfully fine with having something so monstrous close to their home.

    Summary

    Hans hasn't spoken to Henry since they argued about the revelations surrounding his parentage. And Hans is fine with that! It's Henry's choice to avoid him. If only they could have a single conversation without it turning into an argument, though.

    Summary

    Infiltrating Vranik was supposed to be risky, but simple: Henry and Hans would go together, because a centaur going alone would be too suspicious. Never could Henry have expected Istvan to be there, however. Now he was powerless to do anything but wait for whatever cruel thing Istvan had in store for him. Henry expected torture, but it seemed that he didn't need to fear for his life, but his mind.

    ----

    Henry is captured by Istvan during the infiltration of Vranik. Istvan is more than eager to break Henry, and to rebuild the centaur as his obedient steed through any means necessary.

    Summary

    It’s time for the yearly big horse race, and Hans hasn't said a word about it. It should probably have been the sign that he was up to something, but Henry has been too distracted by how nice and quiet everything had been for a full month.

    The trap shuts behind him when he walks into his abode and sees a brand new saddle and harness displayed on a stand, and Hans laying on his sleeping platform with a bouquet of marigold.

    Henry starts to back out. Maybe if he’s slow enough about it, Hans won't lurch.

    “Oh no, you are not backing out. Get back here Hal!” he yells and scrambles up to grab him before he can flee.

    Summary

    The first time Henry sees the horse, he nearly misses it in the rain. It’s after the attack on Pribyslavitz. Rail thin, and probably once white. Sniffing around the corpses, looking for grass that has long since been trampled into a muddy pit by the fighting.

    “The horse over there. We should take it in. It won't make it like this.”

    "What horse?” Henry looks down at the soldier in confusion. When he looks up again, the horse is gone.

    Henry wasn't born like this, but he was cursed early enough that it doesn't really matter. Life as a centaur is complicated. Even more so when your whole world is razed to the ground and Death dogs your step. What does it mean to be both horse and man but also neither in a world that is only getting more complicated? Is there space for someone like him? Will he be put down when he stops being useful? And what's up with Hans Capon?

    Summary

    Even at his young age, Henry had accepted that he would never truly fit in as a centaur and have his dreams come true. That was why he was nervous to join his Pa on a trip to Kuttenberg, fearing for the judgment of an entire city of strangers. But he decided to go anyway, because how could his life ever start if he didn't even dare to go beyond the safety of Skalitz?

    ----

    Young Henry is taken on a trip by Martin to sell blacksmithing products in Kuttenberg. Henry's status as a centaur ensures that the trip won't be all sunshine and rainbows, though.
