He had hoped to arrive home before the night fell, but had been waylaid in a local pub. Now drunk and tired the man stumbled through the woods, wishing there was an easier way. When suddenly he spotted a large black horse drinking from a river, it was as if the very forest itself had answered his wishes. The man hurried to the horse and noticed it had a very placid mood, this was not a wild horse thought the man. Standing on a large rock the man threw himself onto the horses back, all of a sudden, the beast lept to action and bolted along the river bank, the man cried and whaled, but the creature paid no attention. The man tried to jimp from his crazed mount, but he was held to the house with some kind of mystical force. The horse leapt high into the air and landed in the deep river, the water did not slow the creature, if anything it gave it speed. The man now completely submerged, struggling for the air he would never breath again, knew in his heart that his life had been taken by the dreaded Kelpie. • • Intro Music: Written for me by Bobbin • https://bobbin.bandcamp.com/ • Other Music by : Alexander Nakarada https://alexandernakarada.bandcamp.com/ • • References: • Briggs, K.
