...destarte^{H}




"destarte....You can't say it except in Mescalero..
it means morning..
it also means the feel... the sound of the name..
it means the crack of dawn..
the first bronze light that makes the buttes stand out against the gray desert..
it means the first sound you hear of a brook curling over some rocks..
some trout jumping and a beaver crooning..
it means the sound a stallion makes when he whistles at some mares just as the first puff of wind kicks up at daybreak..
..it means like you get up in the first light and you and her go out of the wickiup, where it smells smoky and private and just You and her, and kind of safe with just the two of you there, and you stand outside and smell the first bite of wind coming down from the high divide and promising the first snowfall..."

Hondo by Louis L'Amour, page 36, 37

destarte^{H} was purchased from Tarnwald@jag on August 22, 2002, by Master Hondo...
her name was changed from sha'zadi{TC} to destarte^{H} by Master..




it is with joy, that she follows Master..
a dream come true for her..
she is owned, completely..
her joy is in her bondage to Him..
her freedom, is in her total obedience..
she is slave..
