The Portal

Her words brought him to stop. Her sight caused him pause. He was apparently taken aback by her presence, as if the sight of such a being was new to him. She could not blame him. She was truly a sight to behold, even for those accustomed to the Rift and its wonders. She was a being of beauty and mystery. She did not let the pleasure of causing another such confusion and aw to get to show, or override her initial sympathy for this lost soul.
And as he spoke, she listened. She returned his bow with a graceful dip of her own head. "I do not mind at all. I am K'yarie, a native of this land." She spoke, introducing herself. "The Rift's portal can only take another from their world, it either cannot or will not return them." Her gaze drifted in the direction the man had been running. "None of us understand why it does this, but it does. You are not the only one it has stolen, you likely will not be the last."
Her piece of hope appeared out from behind her. Sensing the other it glowed brightly before splitting in two. She nudged the second orb. "We do not understand why horses are taken. Or why they are not allowed to return. But one thing is for certain. This world is sick and dying. Perhaps this is its attempt to survive, it takes others from the worlds it connects to in hopes of using them to save itself. So little is known about the Rift and its presence."
She gestured towards the orb. "These Pieces of Hope, are designed to help save it. To restore the light that has been lost." She pushed the orb his way. "It will also help fend off some of the Rift's, ill effects. I know it is not much of a consolation, or comfort. But perhaps it will help you." Her glowing gaze settled on the stallion as she paused. It was a lot to take in and she knew this. But the information needed to be shared. He wanted to know. Silence stretched between them as she waited for the other's response to all of this new information, the revelation that he may not be able to return home.

Tell me a story
About how the sun loved the moon so much;
He died every night
to let her breath.
