Castle Avamir (2003)
“There was a bank of clouds on the western horizon.
Only one peak jutted above them.
“‘Higher than the clouds,’” Heart said to herself.
She left the road and set off through the forest.
She walked westward—straight toward the lowering sun.
The trees were thick in the valleys, and Heart and Moonsilver had to wade through creeks.
With every step, Heart got more excited.
What would it be like to find her family at last?
Maybe the girls Laura had found were her cousins! Heart caught her breath. Mayb...e she had sisters!
The woods were quiet except for the gentle off-and-on sprinkle of rain.
There were no houses, no roads, no people.
Once they were well away from Hickory Creek, Heart laid the halter rope over Moonsilver’s neck.
They had no need to pretend when they were alone.
Like Avamir always had, Moonsilver matched his stride to Heart’s.
Heart kept walking. She was careful to follow paths made by deer and rabbits. The animals knew the easiest way through the mountains.
The drizzle finally stopped at sunset.MoreLess
