As you may well know, the differences between good and evil are many. However, they both fight for the same goal, to win over their opponent's side and control what they believe is rightfully theirs. Both sides are determined and set towards their goals, prepared to battle and fight no matter what the cost. This is why most of the Unicorns were neutral, taking neither side.
It was not that they feared battle, for they were all quite capable of it, but it was the nature of them, to avoid conflict at all times. Azreal, with her outspoken thoughts and rather quick temper, was easily aroused, and to her, battle was an honor, and it was the duty of her kin to serve in battle, and use their souls to defend the light.
Azreal did not hide the fact that she fought for the side of the light, not at all. It was true, she knew that she had certainly caused the rebellion of Destiny. He was a young and ambitious mind, and being told by an older Unicorn that he was frankly stupid, was an invitation for trouble. None of the other Unicorns had forgiven Azreal for dismissing Destiny, but they feared to speak over her will.
Nobody knew what had become of Jupiter, and they all suspected the worst. After days of searching, they had come no closer to the valley that held the Phoenix. Finally, after Azreal led the herd in a circle for the third time, one of them spoke up. "Excuse me...", her voice musically called, "Azreal? I hate to be a bother, but it has come to my attention that I have seen that Oak tree over yonder no less than three times. Is it not possible you may be a bit lost?" Azreal's head turned at the mention of her name, she gazed upon the small filly with a slight smile. "I know the way my dear, I just know not where the trail begins." The filly nodded, her forelock falling over her dark eyes like a veil.
"Aren't you Caevven's daughter?", Azreal asked thoughtfully. The other herd members stepped back, eyes wild with fright at the mention of the name. The filly snorted softly, "No; I am daughter to Jupiter." Azreal nodded, her eyes flickering with disbelief, "What is your name?" The smaller Unicorn tossed her head nervously, "Sabeen". "Ah, I see," the elder creature said, her tail dancing in the wind. "Why have you spoken against my judgment young one? What gives you the right?" Sabeen stamped her hoof and said firmly, "Anyone has the right to speak his or her mind, and you were going the wrong way." Azreal's face twisted into a crooked smile, "Was I? I hadn't noticed...", she looked once more at Sabeen, "and you say you are Jupiter's daughter?" Sabeen nodded vigorously, "Yes, and I don't know who my mother is."
Azreal broke into a broad grin; "You have quite a mouth Sabeen. It is not often I meet someone who speaks so freely. Odd it is though," she flicked her tail casually," that you bear an uncanny resemblance to Caevven, and yet are the offspring of Jupiter." The other Unicorns shook their heads and quickly jumped away from Sabeen, sending her looks of curiosity and distrust. Azreal, seeing the others were beginning to think badly of the filly, whinnied loudly, calling everyone to her attention. "All right lets continue!" As they made their way through the forest, Sabeen found herself walking alone, and receiving dark glances from her fellow Unicorns.
A young male, about her age, purposely knocked Sabeen against a tree trunk. Sabeen winced as her head hit the wood with a thud. She bared her teeth at the male warningly, but before she could say anything, she heard a piercing scream. Shivers ran up her spine, and she looked to Azreal, wondering if her leader was aware of the disturbance. Indeed she was, and Azreal stared up at the sky with question. Then suddenly, cutting the silence like a knife, many cries enveloped the herd, shrieks and screeches. The unicorns reared and snorted with fear.
Above the noise, Azreal's eyes had turned stone cold, "RUN!", she cried," Quickly! Everyone! Gryphons!"
