Bits of rays of light filtered down through the treetops of a dark forest. Charred and rotten oaks, ash trees, and redwoods surround you as you walk down an unwelcoming path leading seemingly to nowhere. You look around you and shiver, rubbing your arms and hands to keep them warm. It was strange. You had been here before, but it had been much more welcoming the last time. It seemed as though you would walk through that forest forever and get to nowhere on the unused path you tread on until at last you stumble upon a clearing. You look around and remember how there was a thatched roof, vines for sturdy walls, a bubbling stone cauldron-like bowl near one wall, and strings of beads and jewels dangling down and jingling every now and then as a door. There were various artifacts and interesting things. There were sketches done by a certain unicorn's owner of the uni's family and few friends.
Now, as you look around you, everything looks decapitated, rotten, old, and weatherworn. The vine walls were practically torn down, only a few vines remaining. The thatched roof had large holes in it. "What happened here?" you ask aloud, seemingly to nobody. The kind, gentle, brown Elven mare that once welcomed you and excitedly told you to learn about her family was gone. You walk over to rest a hand on the cracked stone cauldron-like bowl. The sketches and portraits on the walls had disintegrated with time and age. Suddenly a soft 'Clop, clop, clop, clop, clop, clop, clop' is heard behind you. You spin around, then to your surprise what seemed like a faded image of a beautiful, brown, tall Elven uni mare walks slowly towards you. She glowed with a gentle, light blue glow. The mare's eyes were blank and pupiless. The lightning bolt on her hindquarters seemed faded and glowed with a gentle blue light, like her body. Her long black mane and tail flutter gently in a non-existant breeze. Her front right leg and back left leg were black from the knees down. Her horn, like the glow around her, was of a light blue aura, her hooves like a faded, dusty gold. A black, upside down triangle marking could be seen below the mare's left eye. The mare kept walking towards you. When she was a foot away, you take a step back, but she keeps walking forward, the point of the mare's horn dangerously close to your head. She keeps walking towards you until she actually walks through you. You stand still, looking down in amazement. The rest of the mare walks right through you, and you look back. As the mare continues on, she suddenly stops and turns her head to look back at you. You seem paralyzed as her blank eyes watch your every movement.
The mare says nothing, turns her head so she is looking forward again, and bolts forward, the brown wings folded at her sides beginning to spread as she ran forth. She flapped her wings and ascended into the air with a gust of air. As she ascended above the treetops, there was a flash of light and another equine appeared beside her, running on the wind though it had no wings, nor a horn. A black cloud seems to float over to the two equines, sweeping them away. You hold your hand up over your eyes to keep the sun from impairing your vision when you hear a voice behind you. "Lady Windancer and her mate Valur the Heartless Avenger have rested their spirits." You spin around to see a small cloud baby fireball floating in midair. It looks at you with blackest eyes. It seems like it is fading. Instead of fire protruding from its skin, it almost seems like a pale, faded blue mist. With the blink of an eye, the fireball disappears, leaving you standing alone in the ruins of Lady Windancer's beloved homeā¦
