The Confession of an Ardent Heart
Nova Tale—an impulsive and sensual stallion—squanders the money entrusted to him by his fiancé on another mare, a dangerously attractive mare. He finds himself tormented by his conscience. Drama of the philosophical sort ensues.
Nova Tale is many things. Impulsive. Hot-headed. Foolishly ambitious. And very much in love with his fiancé, Sunlight Ivory.
Entrusted with a certain package containing 100,000 bits, Nova Tale is meant to make a delivery to Sunlight's sister far off in Baltimare. But Nova Tale makes a grave mistake, one which will label him as a scoundrel for the rest of his years. Now he must come to terms with his sordid affair, and reflect on his shameful theft of his fiancé's money in order to win the heart of another mare.
