Astien rode quickly upon his horse. He needed to find that mage quickly. He needed all the help he could get right now. The sooner he got there the better. After a while he found himself riding along some cliffs by the sea. He got off his horse to give it a moment to rest. He stood at the cliff's edge, and looked down at the sea below. It would be so easy. Just lean forward a little, and let gravity take care of the rest. So easy... Astien stood at the edge and closed his eyes. He leaned forward, and allowed himself to fall from the cliff's edge, waiting for the rush of wind to blow past his face.
Except he didn't fall. His belly glowed, and there he floated, suspended in the air, and then placed back on his feet next to his horse. His baby was not allowing him to do that.
Astien sighed as he mounted his horse again. It wasn't easy to do with his large bump, but he forced himself up. He turned and cast one last look behind him. His little one had denied him the release he sought.
He stared longingly at the waters in the distance, wishing he could feel the arms of the ocean, so cold and so sweet, wanting to let the arms of the ocean deliver him someplace better. He sighed, and with a snap of the reins and a hand on his belly, he was riding off again.

I'm just here for a laugh
