Abandoned Equine

[Abandoned Staff]

Many years ago, humans lived upon the lands of Arathorn. They lived in harmony with the horses and even some of the wild dogs that roamed the lands. Eventually after years of the tribes kindness and gratitude towards the animals, the horses and wolves became tame. The horses were used for both transport and for pets, they were cherished by all of the tribes of humans and were never once used as meat. The wolves were taught to never harm a horse and were used as hunting dogs set out into the forests to bring back some wild turkey or hogs. Everything on the island of Arathorn seemed peaceful at the time, the animals and humans lived quietly, no one even knowing that they had ever existed. But as the times turned modern problems begun to occur. Planes flew high above the lands, shaking the earth. Although no one had yet found the land it unnerved the humans horribly.

After years more of this they were extremely worried, trying to debate whether to leave. They had built several canoes in case an emergency occurred. And that happened. In the afternoon of a very normal day, a plane again flew over head, this time seemingly out of control. It plummeted towards the island, not stopping until it hit the ground, hard. There were no survivors on the plane but the humans of the land thought that the gods were furious at them. They began to pack up and leave, too afraid to go near the twisted corpse of the plane, which was in flames. Fuel leaked everywhere, fire caught, lighting trees. Soon a ripping forest fire was blazing through the island. Many animals, including the tame ones burnt to death. The tribes tried to save them, attempting to board horses on their canoes, but to no avail.

Only the wolves would fit. So in their great sorrow, the humans left their beloved horses behind, only managing to evacuate the wolves. As there canoes paddled away, the horses watched, hoping the humans would return. They were now completely tame and nibbled at the grass near the tribes home. They knew not where the spring filled with water was, so they began to search desparetely for the liquid of life, water. After many days they found the watering hole on the vast island of Arathorn, many horses ill from dehydration. The fire had burnt down all shade and the fuel had leaked and contaminated the water. As some horses drank they died a few days later, but most became mutated in a strange way from the fuel. It was an unexplainable phenomenon.

As the horses waited nearly a decade for their human families before they gave up, they became fully mutated, passing on their new weird genetics to foals. The horses had turned into around four different breeds. First there were the Jinto a horse that despite the fuel managed to remain perfectly normal. Second the Raythorn, a horse who had sprouted wings from the fuel. Third the Zenhorne horses who had grown a magnificent horn. And fourth the Iris, horses who were coloured in the most magnificent shades of colours from the rainbow or colours of silver, gold or bronze. The horses learned how to be wild, living peacefully for the most part.

Nearly one thousand years after the tribes left they still thrive, completely wild now, many generations of these magnificent abnormals thrive. They have long since forgotten their humans, it was as if they were never there. Humans have died out now and there existence has been forgotten. But even still, danger still lingers. Equines are splitting apart, some so horrible and retched that they live for killing, some so wonderful that they could not harm a fly, and finally some equines so confused that their personalities are mixed with horrible and friendly. A war is brewing, all the equines can feel it. Also the damage of pollution the humans left is still here, the island has not yet been contaminated by the coming smog. With the smog an influenza could break out, are the horses strong enough to live through this tragedy when in comes?
