Geas no longer sleepy after their talk However, he didn't suggest Mars continue their journey He thought it would be better if they let the horses rest soo and he had replaced it with a fresh new horse when they stopped in Branwen

It was not as strong and valiant as Snoever, Geas sure if Mars kept forcing Snow to go without proper rest, the horse would ain for several hours Finally, when the sun was rising on the eastern horizon, without a word, Mars got up and got his horse ready Snow had rested and grazed sorass to fill his stoot up and cliether they rode toward the capital In his prediction, they could reach home in two days
