Cascade

Ovine is a daydreamer. So when she wandered out into the Australian bush one day she certainly wasn't expecting a herd of brumbies. One brumby in particular, the stallion, did not flee when he saw her, instead he pranced around her, inspecting her. Ovine was amazed to see such an inquisitive brumby. The way he danced and the way his muscles rippled under his dappled grey coat made her think of a cascading waterfall. So she named him Cascade. Each day when she entered the valley, he was there waiting for her. Until one day when she turns the corner he isn't there. He isn't there the next day either and this puzzles her because he had been meeting her for over six months. Where could Cascade have gone? What happend to him?
