[Sanctuary] Teahvan Brightwing comes home? (Kavala)

[Teahvan]

Timestamp: 3rd of Summer, 512 Av Location: Sanctuary Purpose: Teahvan looking for work; more importantly looking for a home Status: Open Teahvan rode up the hill on Spark; the Firemane, Kavala had given into his care nearly two years ago. He still rode her with Kavala's yvas, saddlebags and pad. Now there was also a light barding on Spark, ornamented with Teahvan's personal device; depicting Earthsong (his Kelvic father in wolf form) between two symbols of Elemental Earth, on the bottom half, and Tahnser (his Kelvic twin brother in gyrfalcon form) between two symbols of Elemental Air, all shown in relief on a 4" disk. As the light of early dawn brightened the morning sky, Teahvan slipped down off of Spark. He then gathered her reigns in his right hand and walked with her to the entrance of Sanctuary. {It feels good to be back, even though everything here looks so different. But it still feels like home... even more so than Wind Reach ever did.} Teahvan fed and watered Spark as he waited for someone from Sanctuary to great him.

Kavala had thick work gloves on and was moving rubble. They had a large burn pile going in the middle of the arena. And the Konti's hair was plastered to her head, thick with sweat and grime as she moved yet again another wheelbarrow filled with unsalvagable material over to pile. They were busy sorting debris. What could be saved? What had to be burned. What could be re purposed and what could be reused. There was a lot of good lumber, more than enough, to make the bones of the facility again. But anything sharp, small, unwelcome was either cut up for firewood or burned outright to dispose of it. Even the ashes from the pile were recycled, used to lay the foundations of the riding arena that would go in the middle of the facility.

When the man on the firemane rode up, she lifted her head, brushed a sweaty strand of hair out of her eyes and squinted. "Spark?" She called softly, hardly believing her eyes. "Is that you?" She asked, then glanced up at the rider, her smile suddenly brightening.

"Teahvan! You made it home. How was the trip?!" She asked, walking up to the mare and patting her on the head. Even before Teahvan hit the ground, she was checking the mare over and looking at her feet. "Did you make it all the way to Wind Reach and back?" She asked, beckoning him to dismount and turning Spark over to Aweston who materialized out of the gloom the smoke was casting over the ruined facility.

"You came home just in time. We're rebuilding after the Spring Djed Storm. How did you manage to fair through that?" She asked, completely and utterly surprised he was still alive if he was on the road when the storm hit. Unless he'd been lucky enough to hold up in a cave somewhere, the odds of him making it home alive was slim to none. So she imagined he had quite a story.

"Hungry? Thirsty? Tired? We can get you set up with a place to rest..." Kavala said, excited to see the man and hear his tale.
