A large brown and white stallion stood in the storm, snow flakes swirling around his head. The wind whipped his copper and white mane backwards and sent his white tail streaming. And without warning, he took off. His strides were long and graceful, and he dodged and jumped fallen trees with ease. How great it felt to run in the snow, after all the spring and summer months of warm, heavy rain. This was where he belonged, this was where he would always belong, if nowhere else. He slowed down to a canter, and a trot, then a walk, and finally halted altogether. He looked around, ears pricked, wondering if anyone else was there to talk to.  |

The sound of hoofbeats grew nearer and nearer. In between the snowy trees it was hard not to notice the approaching spot of bright green. The stallion jumped the last log, his white horn catching the sunlight in the clearing. He landed gracefully on the other side. Missed to take notice of the clear ice under the new snow. He slid. Tried to find his balance. Slid again, and fell into a drift of snow.  (Yes! I finaly found out how to get the picture to show up  |

OOC: OMG, you have one of teh oldish Crystals! *claps* I know somebody who has a ton of them, but she doesn't adopt anymore.
BIC: The stallion jumped high as he heard a sort of splatting sound. Whisking around, he saw the other stallion. Ever chivalrous, he bowed low, but keeping his eyes on the other stallion warily. "Greetings. I am Dol'ztecky."

(*grins* Yep - he's quite nice, isn't he? *pats her green stallion fondly* I haven't been around this place for a really loooong while myself :0)
The stallion tosses the snow from his long mane. "Whew..." Shaking his head to himself, he gets up with a laugh. "That was fun." Lowering his head in a bow, he responds to the greeting. "Good day to you, Dol'ztecky. My name is Warhmt's'Emerl'Sha." After a short pause he offers. "But my friends usually call me just Emerl'sha"
Shaking himself all over like a wet dog to get rid of the snow, he glances at the spotted stallion. "So, what's up?"

OOC: Of course. ^_^ But she's still online, she just has her own adoption that takes up all her time, besides college. You might remember her. Her name's Foxxfyre.
BIC: "Emerl'sha? Okay then. You can just call me..." His memories drifted back to his dam, when she would call him 'my little Dol,' or 'my little mystic.' "You can just call me Dol."
He shook his head. He still wasn't sure of this stallion, however kind he may seem. "Nothing much. Eilleen's gettin' on my nerves, that's all."
He cocked his head breifly and flicked an ear, overcome by curiousity. "Do you have any other Crystals in your realm?"

"Then, Dol it is." He bobbed his head a few times, wondering privately who Eilleen could be. Perking his ears at the question, he shook his head. "None at all... Quite a ragtag band of wanderers in Northlight valley, I would say. But none of our kind except myself. Sometimes it suits me fine - but I miss it sometimes. Do you?" "And, he added as an afterthought "Where do you live?"

Dol shook his head. "No way. I prefer solitary, but there are three other Crystals in my realm. There's Eilleen, Nizik, and Zzala, Nizik's daughter. And I'm often with my Charity. I don't see much of my daughter though, which hurts me most. She's in a whole different realm."
Dol had warmed up to the stallion quite a bit. He yawned, then looked at the sun and squinted. "Indi's a bit peevish right now, with all these crits she's importing into Urabana. So Eilleen came to bug me. I guess that's what you get, being the oldest in a realm."

"The oldest?" The stallion let the question hang in the air. He found that piece of information hard to believe.
(Sorry, I haven't been around lately)

OOC: Fine by me. ^_^
Do you know you have a pickup at Shatterstars? I think it may be a redraw of him...
BIC: "The oldest Crystal Unicorn. I'm number 510. The only one who comes close to me is Eilleen, but he's number 599. So yeah, I'm the oldest Crystal." Dol shrugged. "It's hard to believe myself."

The pounding of sharp hooves was muffled by the pillowing snow, but there was no missing the brown and white shape that charged towards the two stallions. At the last second, there was a tangle of legs and the bulleting shape scrabbled to a halt.
"Oh!" said a light female voice. "I thought you were something else."

Dol's eyes widen as he saw the Painted Crystal Mare. She was a beauty, that was sure.
He bowed. "I am Dol'ztecky, but please call me Dol. And this is Emerl'sha."

The mare blinked several times, looking inexplicable surprised. "Oy, I'm Garama."

Dol nodded, unable to take his eyes off hers. "Garama? That's a pretty name..." To fit a pretty mare, he thought. His band was small - even though it wasn't exactly his band - and even though he had had a filly already, he had always wanted a bunch of children. Perhaps a mate... But no way was he going to go searching for one.
"Are you around here often? Cause I'm completely lost. I don't know bout Emerl'sha here, but I am..."

Garama shook back her thick mane eagerly. "Yah! I've been around here a bit. Yup. Definitely."
She look at him expectantly. There was something slightly off about this mare...

"Really? So... you know a way out? Not that I want to leave yet... I really love the snow." Realizing he was babbling, as he often did with strange - except, strangly enough, Emerl'sha - unicorns, he shut up.
