This is a golden oldie, originally published way back in April of last year. It's interesting to think about how a species that can live for hundreds or thousands of years must become accustomed to loss - by any useful measure, dragons might as well be immortal.

Horse Voice's The Savage Way
It's an odd combination, this - a background character and a human, trapped alone on a deserted isle. Who'll crack first, the pony or the man?

Today...
...the Vault will be taking a day off. It usually takes about a week of lead time to get an interview and ebooks ready for a Vault entry, and my last week was much busier than normal for me, so there just wasn't time. Sorry, everyone!
Regular service will resume next week. (Has anyone else noticed that the next entry will be the Vault's 50th?)

Stoic. Calm. Unflappable. And above all, Professional. These are attributes that the pianist Frederic Horseshoepin likes to pride himself on.
But sometimes it's difficult to stay professional. Frederic finds it difficult to maintain a veneer of stoicism when he has to deal with his own feelings. What can he do when he's in love with a mare that he cannot hope to have?
