As was my custom, I had been wandering this morning while everyone else was still asleep. Now was the
only time of day that I, as a Guardian, really have to myself, not that I really minded. By habit I preferred
the company of other equines, but there was a part of him that craved this quiet. That demanded I be
awake to witness the rising of the sun and to bask in the first rays of a brand new day.

The splendor of the sunrise was still a few minutes away, painting the sky in broad swathes of pinks and
lavenders, slowly erasing all evidence of the endless night sky. My blue eyes raised to the skyline to gauge
my time before returning to the tricky ground in front of me. A late spring frost had hardened the hoof
prints left in the mud the day before and if I didn't pay attention, I was liable to trip. Apart from not
wanting to injure myself, I didn't want to risk the chance of someone seeing me so clumsy if I were
not truly alone this morning. Everyone had still been asleep when I left the Hills in the dark, but
they were not necessarily going to stay asleep.

With a glance around me, I waded into the Lake and lowered my head to taste the clear water, un-
muddied by the masses that would arrive later. And finally, with both hunger and thirst sated, I
turned my attention to the sunrise I had come to this particular spot to see.


OOC: Going to try out some first player with him for
a while and see which I like better. Bear with me. <3

The pale Marwari mare trotted trough the trees. she felled loney ...
apparently, there weren't many mares in her herd, she almost never met anybody and she didn't had a mate also.
she was alone and she felled alone. Maybe because she was different? with her curled ears?

All those thoughts made her sad. when she saw the sparkling of the sun in the water she smiled softly. maybe a little swim could make her happy.

When arrived at the lake, the feeling of of water made her drink first, before she could look around if there was somebody else.
the fresh water runned inside while her ears flicked each time she took some water

OOC: gonna give it a try ^^

Every time I watched a sunrise, I was always struck by the peace of the moment. It signaled a new
day, a fresh start, a new beginning. This morning was no exception, and the worries I had been
carrying around slipped from my shoulders in a heavy sigh, the skin around my muzzle and eyes
relaxing as I let go of my concerns.

The sound of hesitant hoof beats - light enough that they probably belonged to a mare or a young
adult - caught my attention and one tightly curled ear tips backward toward the noise, although I
did not yet turn my head and signal my awareness of their arrival. The lack of a greeting made me
wonder if they were shy or simply hadn't noticed me, although that was unlikely given my obvious
position. Absently, while waiting for a sign from my new companion, I wondered if the reason they
weren't speaking was from intimidation; after all, I was a mature stallion and there didn't seem to
be anyone near to protect whoever it was should I turn out to be dangerous.

A laughable notion, but not many knew me yet.

Finally I shifted my body so that I could look at what turned out to be a pale golden mare, whose
figure and characteristic ears marked her as my kind. A wry, lopsided grin tugs at my lips, and I
incline my head in gentle respect and greeting before speaking softly in the morning air.

"It's almost time for the sunrise. Care to join me?"

I was caught in my own minds and idea's, in my own head with his own
world. tornado's of thoughts, words and images were passing by, making I
wasn't looking out so well, nor with my eyes or hooves.

My hooves touched the water and my blue eyes were looking down, seeing
my own reflection in the silent water. My mouth was reaching the surface,
reading to swallow the water until a voice suddenly reached my ears.

Spooked by those words, the idea I didn't looked out and was now caught by something else,
I jumped up from the ground, not feeling the small round stones and the soft ground
under my hooves. My rear started elegant, until I lost balance because of the slippy
ground. My eyes turned their self to the ground, looking at the spot were I would fall ...

I soft scream left my mouth before I could say "no, no, no ..." to myself. The idea that I was
falling, being clumsy again, in the presence of another horse was just ... well, typical me in fact.
With a soft smash I felled on the ground, water was flying all around me and made my coat wet and dirty ...

My eyes were scanning the area, looking for the source of the voice. My eyes found a black and white stallion.
i didn't knew him ... so he had to be from another herd. but that was the last thing that came into my mind.
his body, his ears ... they were the same as me. fascinated by his looks I tried to get back on my feet,
but the slippy and wet ground had other idea's and didn't let me go ...

Apparently I hadn't been gentlemanly enough.

At the sound of my voice she jumped away as though I'd struck her with a sharp stick, her hooves
finding no purchase on the slippery stones underfoot. Before I could so much as say anything at all,
she was rising in the air with her hind end quickly going the other way. I stepped forward, wanting
to go to her side and help but to be honest, I was a bit shell shocked by her extreme reaction.

Her scream made me wince - not because it was loud or extremely terrible - rather, it was because
I had caused it, if inadvertently. When at last her slender body met the ground, which was at least
covered with round stones rather than something jagged and dangerous, I remembered to put my
forehoof down, which had been raised in preparation of rushing to her aid. But just what kind of help
would I really be? After all, she had tried to run away from me, not to me. When one was embarr-
assed and quite possibly hurt, the last thing they wanted was for a stranger to come rushing
apologetically to their side.

Ducking my head in apology as she floundered trying to rise, I attempted to calm her with a quiet,
soothing whicker. I shuffled a few steps closer, not sure what I was supposed to do with myself.

"Are you alright?"

This was so embarrassing. First off all I got spooked of a horse
and secondly I felled down with my clumsy feet and even didn't
got up quickly enough.

"yes, I am fine."
I said with a soft smile, more of an excuse for my stupid behavior.
finaly my front hooves found some ground and I raised myself up
and tried to shake of the dirt, but on such a pale coat like mine, the
dirt left some spots and stains. and a few small cuts were visible to
from some small sharp rock.

"the world really doesn't like me .." I said again as a sort of
apologize. My blue eyes crossed with his and now I could finaly take
a good look. My heart made a jump of surprise. He was of the same
breed as me. He wouldn't find me weird because of my ears ...
though, I didn't know if the others of my herd thought that to ...
I just never had the change to really meet them.

"my name is Kali." I said when I tried to get of some dirt.

After a few tense moments of waiting, she seemed to finally be able to get her hooves beneath her
again, although she didn't seem particularly pleased with my presence. Her soft acknowledgement
of my question earned a mild grin from my dark lips, and I pricked my curved ears forward so that
they nearly touched at the tips. Again I was struck with the realization that she was much like me,
perhaps even a purebred of the same breed which was unusual among the wild creatures that
roamed the valley.

I shook my head in disagreement when she mentioned the world disliking her. That was wrong on
so many levels. "Sometimes things happen. It doesn't mean the world or anyone in particular dis-
likes you at all."


Now that she seemed more at ease and was once again on her hooves, I sauntered forward so that
I didn't feel so conspicuous talking over such a distance. Now that I was closer, the scrapes on her
golden coat were more visible, making me feel worse for startling her in the first place. "I'm sorry I
startled you. I came out here to watch the sunrise before the rest of my herd woke up. My name is
Rakshan, and it's a pleasure to meet you Kali. What herd are you from?"


I became aware that I was babbling, but didn't stop myself. Hopefully my mindless talking would help
her settle into the realization that I wasn't a mare-eating dinosaur after all. Absently, when it was
quiet once more, I cast a hopeful glance at the sunrise, where the concentration of red and gold at
the base hinted that the moment of beauty was nearly upon us. I wondered what the reds and golds
of the sun would look like on her coat, and then banished the notion. It was very likely she wasn't
of my herd, and while illicit romances were said to occur occasionally, as a Guardian of the Aboriji's,
I couldn't let myself become one of those numbers. The children needed some role models to look up
to, and despite my kind's stereotypical image of being hippies, I had no intention of letting myself
run amok with free love.

Re-focusing on Kali, I kept my thoughts to myself and curled my lips back into a grin, hoping she
hadn't noticed my distraction.

When I was finaly on my feet and shaked with my body. My tail took some weird
swings in the air before I could finaly look at the stallion. I pricked my ears foreward and
placed a soft smile on my face.

"Khoya." I said. I knew he wasn't op my herd, I would already have seen him if he was.
but still, even with the rule that love wasn't allowed between 2 herds, I couldn't
keep my eyes of him and his curled ears. When I had left my old herd, they told me
i wouldn't find anybody like me ... but here I was, standing right over someone that
had the same curled ears like I did.

My eyes jumped shortly to the horizon, who became more like a fireline
in the distance. The soft light made my coat shine because of the water, but when the sun
would be there, the water disappear fast.
But maybe a small jump in the water wasn't so bad afterall. I had a hard winter. I wasn't
able to find enough food and because of my desert blood, I didn't had such a nice
wintercoat as some other horses had. If I would be a mare alone, I didn't think I would
have survived the winter ...

I couldn't say that I've been through many moments of struggle or strife in my relatively short
life; perhaps even going as far as to say that this past winter had been the closest I'd ever
come to even being uncomfortable with my life. Having grown up with a supportive family and
herd that had taught me not only how to survive but also to form strong bonds with my herd.
Even now there was a healthy layer of flesh over my body and a gleam to my coat.

I couldn't help but to allow my blue eyes to sweep over her coat again now that the sun was
finally rising, bathing her golden coat in rich pinks and oranges. A grin tugged at the corner of
my lips and I pulled my eyes away from the mare, still a little chagrined that I had caused the
scrapes on her pretty coat. Self-consciously I sucked in a sigh and avoided her gaze until she
finally mentioned her herd, squashing any romantic ideals I may have - subconsciously, I assure
you - been entertaining in my head.

Resolve flickered through my thoughts. I couldn't involve either of us in anything romantic. After
all, most stallions were able to have conversations with mares that consisted of innocent con-
versation. Especially after harming their speaking partner. For a moment I wasn't sure how to
proceed, she hadn't offered much for me to respond to, stating only her herd and nothing else.
Still, I soldiered on, almost determined to put her at ease with my presence.

"Have you gotten to know many of your herdmates, Kali?" There. That should be a safe enough
question. Right?
