It landed heavily on the other side, the ground cracking beneath its weight, and immediately continued the chase.
Darion looked ahead.
'Almost.'
Caef glanced backward. His eyes widened. Darion was getting closer. Much closer.
"No!" He kicked the horse harder.
The stallion suddenly veered toward a building.
Caef barely had time to react. "What are you—"
CRASH!
The horse jumped straight through a window.
Glass exploded everywhere, a shower of shimmering shards that glittered in the torchlight. Dross screamed as they disappeared inside. Caef struggled to control the horse as it raced through the building.
Furniture shattered beneath its hooves. Tables flipped. Chairs splintered. People screamed and scattered out of the way, diving aside as the massive stallion thundered through their homes.
Then—
BOOM!
Darion's undead wolf crashed through the wall.
