The Greeks call upon him to settle here. Where even was here? These lands are plentiful and spacious, but much of what he'd seen thus far is open desert, not unlike the lands of Numidia to the south of his home. Was it useful for the sake of a colony?
And besides, his father would be furious if he knew where he was — or what he was planning.
Sucking in a deep breath, his stiff-muscled wandering takes him into the trenches of what appears to be a tall-rimmed canyon. Arching cat-like against the jagged edge of a sandstone fixture, he exhales sharply and ducks beneath a shadow. The rose-gold light of early evening frames his jaw as he comes to a sit.
If he had to deal with her for one more minute today, he might scream. For now, he rests.
