Obsideon: Last of the Naturals

by Sparrow-Talon

"I was very young when it happened. A being of fur and roars hurt me, I was almost gone. Then she came. Her touch was soft, her eyes were sad and she smelt of cold mint. I was scared and she calmed me. I still search for her, but my hopes in finding the kind human are leaving quickly. My name is Obsideon, and this is my story."

2. Describing Where I Come From

My herd was small; just my mother (Lead Mare), my brother (Fal'isk), two cousins (Vanta and Sharkae), and myself.

Lead Mare is a beautiful black mare with green eyes. Fal'isk is a large and strong dark grey stallion with purple eyes. Vanta and Sharkae are crossbreeds between their father, Onyx, and my aunt, Pilopaw. Onyx is from the herd of the new Nightmare Creator while Pilopaw was in our herd until she succumbed to an infected wound.

Vanta is so dark, you can lose her if she is just two hoof-lengths in front of you, she has her mother's glowing red eyes. Sharkae takes after her father in every way.

I am a little bit darker than my mother, but much lighter than Vanta. I have my father's blue eyes and dark grey mane and tail. My wisps are darker than my body.

My herd is the last Natural Nightmare herd left, the rest were either hunted down and killed or bred with Nightmare Creator's herd and had young that outlived them.

We move around a lot, every herd does, but my favorite place was the beautiful forest. It had trees that looked like no other, different colored bark and mismatched leaves. The flowers were always fresh, never touched by the hands of men and the animals were exotic. We stayed there longer than usual, for it is the place where we were all born.

We decided to stay there until the hidden moon passed. But the night of the hidden moon was a horrible one. It was the night I became the last of my type.
