and races around trying to find the escaped herd. The tame horses, including his own mother, broke down the meadow fence where they were being held. He was only one then, so he felt the need to follow his mother. She was trying to force him to go back when someone noticed them and all the horses made a run for it. "You were born here, you have never lived in the wild like I have!" Those were the last words she said to him before they ran. The father who was shut in the barn to keep him from flying away, was left behind. He had been liveing a hard life ever since that day. His mother, who had once been a free unicorn, told of how she was trapped. She was angrey at the humans when they took her horn off to sell to some travelers. They were planning to sell the whole lot of dehorned unis for a lot of money, to the army. The soldiers wouldn't take her or a few others because, they didn't like their looks. Later they force bred her to a, what she called a winged stallion. He was the end result. The humans were hoping for a unipeg, but were dissapointed when he had neither horn nor wings. Seeing as he seemed to be growing whiter in the past year, he was once a deep black now a silver, she reasoned that his horn and wings may grow in later. Now he is two, and is looking well enough on the outside. On the inside he is worn. Always he lags behind. This time he has gotten seperated from the herd. Now giving up all hope of finding them he looks back to the humans and hopes for a good master to take him in. He hears tale that they get on horses backs and jerk their heads around, but how bad could that be compared to his past life. His shy nature, that came from living out in the wild, makes him keep his distance from anyone until he knows them better. He is well musceled, but looks much like a deer do to slender legs and a skinny barrel. He is swift, strong, and loyal, to the right person. Snorting he holds his head high and looks all around for someong that seems good.
