Chasing the Prophecy (Beyonders)
“The sounds and smells of men and horses surrounded her and stretched out behind. She was glad that her status as the Dark Lady allowed her to ride toward the front of the column. It turned out that thousands of soldiers on the move churned up a great deal of dust just about wherever they went. Her position near the front helped her avoid the worst of it, and the black veils that screened her face provided additional protection.
Of course, she was not truly at the front. Not in a vulnerable way.... Scouts ranged far ahead in all directions, and a vanguard of mounted troops rode well beyond the main body of the army.
