After a long journey Arcturus safely lead his new lead mare, Shadow to her new home. The dark meadow called Ashtor, it had been named Ashtor because it had once been a beautiful forest. Then the dark aliance moved in a burned it all to the ground, therefore they named it Ashtor.
"Well, do you like your new home?" Arcturus asked a the slowly walked acrossed the light covering of snow spread acrossed the groung. Here and there tuffs of green grass stood up, it was winter soon going on spring so they were growing more by the day. Arctuus stooped down and plucked up a mouthful for himself. He jestered toward Shadow to do the same.

Shadow happily ate the dew-stained grass. It tasted so sweet on her tongue as she took the clumps of the blades into her mouth. It was cool to her warm bod and it calmed her down. She gazed at his gorgeous pelt and optics. This was her new beginning.

"Well, do you like it?" Arcturus asked Shadow, he already knew how she felt about this wonderful meadow. He looked around them, waiting for her answer. He could see his herd eating the sweet smelling grass. He could feel the rush of wind as colts galloped pasted him in a frantic chase to catch a butterfly. How sweet and inocent they were, not knowing of the war going on or anyhting. He snapped back into reality with a start, he shook his long black mane. He looked at Shadow just to be sure she was still there, calming himself down he waited for her answer.

"Oh I love it!" Shadow exclaimed happily. "The snow is beautiful and the blades of the grass are delicious." She smiled at him happily. She had been imagining the same thing Arcturus had.

"This is going to be a great place for a herd, oh my, I must go. I have a meeting with the other alliances today, please don't come. It is for stallions only, stay here and be safe. Good-bye my darling!" Arcturus said with a look of panic on his face, after he touched her muzzle with his own he was off to Council Creek.

Shadow gazed after him. He made her so happy. He was so kind to her at the time she was at her worst. She was in love with him, and she could tell he felt the same.

Arcturus came walking up, he looked depressed and tired. He stumbled along, his main and only goal that he had to do.....was make it back to his beautiful femme. He was so close but quickly running out of energy. He had walked a long for a horrbly discussion, and he had to walk all the way back. He clapsed on the ground and did not try to get back up, it felt so nice....to lay down on cool snow.......he couldn't get up even if he tried.

Shadow noticed Arcturus. "Oh no!" she screamed in fear. She galloped to him as fast as she could. "Arcturus! Oh, Arcturus, what happened? What's wrong?" She nudged his neck. What am I going to do? she thought sadly. She thought of an idea. She went to the creek and put some water in her mouth. When she came back, she let it out on Arcturus's neck, hoping he would snap out of whatever was happening to him.

Arcturus did not wake up, he had lost to much blood. In time he would heal but he would not be able to fight or do anything for a long time.

Shadow didn't know what to do. She burst into tears and nuzzled his lifeless face. "I love you Arcturus, I love you."

fter a while Arcturus awoke to the face of Shadow resting her tear stained face on his neck. He smile, it seemed as if her body on the wound made it feel better. He was still tired but he knew that Shadow would love to talk to him and hear his story. So he nudged her cheek with his warm muzzle.

Shadow jumped up, half joyfully and half startled. When she saw his orbs looking into hers, her heart melted. She grinned ear to ear and nuzzled him even more. "What happened to you? You look so weak!" she exclaimed in worry.

It's a long story my dear. I went to the meeting, it was a waste of time. Then I went to Claim Falls to find more mares for our herd. he was a light mare, she would have been a slave. A stallion, light fought me for her......he won. I guess I let him in a way.....I could of blocked it if I had wanted to..." Arcturus explained.

Shadow sighed heavily, but then she thought of something. "At least you made it all the way home. That proves that you still have some strength and that you will be okay. If anything happened to you, I would never forgive myself for letting it hurt you."

Arcturus smiled at her, it was about the only thing he could do at that wonderful moment in time. He felt as if he had met and picked the most wonderful, kindly hearted femmora there ever was to be on this cruel earth. She loved him for himself, not just because he was a great and powerful fighter or because of the beautiful land he owned. But because she believed in him and all of his dreams, you see Arcturus was able to speak out to the most fearsom creature there was. He could speak his mind and thougths to anyone without being afraid of death or anything. He was a true leader, born for all that was fair......so horses thought that it was indeed a ashame that he was born and brought up into the dark allinance. He didn't ming though, he knew what his life goal as, what he had to do. And nothing that got in his way was going to stop him.....nothing at all. And once he had thought of how wonderful and thoughtful she was he did not have anymore energy, he just didn't...so he layed is mighty crown down on the soft snow and rest...........
