The black stallion looks up, whickering softly to Risk from where he stands beside Cobweb. He smiles, seeing the elder stallion he respected so much for the first time in so long. Black Death 15:48:20 06/07/02 Fri

*nods to the stallion and raises himself off the ground. A small amount of blood lays on thr ground, from where he had rested atop the sharp rocks. Ignoring it, he speaks slowly "Good to see you guys again" he cocks his head to the side, wondering what had finally brought the two together. He nods, smiling at the two, then he turns and walks stiffly off to the joining board* -- Risk, 14:24:40 06/10/02 Mon

He cocks his head to the side, looking abit upset, then turns to Cobweb, nuzzling her. "I worry about him...he was my father's best friend...it's almost as though he's all I have left of him, after I lost my mother. My family, aside from my aunt, hardly knew him...he was like that, cold, he didn't let many get close. I don't want to lose all ties to him." -- Black Death, 08:42:52 06/11/02 Tue

ooc: is black rose in the caves of lost souls? -- a player, 07:30:38 06/13/02 Thu

yeah but he don't show up too much -- Glitzy, 09:51:35 06/13/02 Thu

::young stallion turns head towards Risk and Black Death. Staying quiet and looks about, boredom setting in:: (NT) -- Death & Destruction, 08:04:53 06/15/02 Sat

Seeing the young stallion, he smiles, eyes lighting up. "It couldn't be litle Destruction!?" He walks over, looking the stallion over appraisingly. "My, my, all grown up. Last I saw you, you weren't more than a foal." (NT) -- Black Death, 11:20:29 06/15/02 Sat

::slight smile 'crosses ashened stallion's face. "It is me. How have you been Black Death?":: (NT) -- Death & Destruction, 16:55:54 06/15/02 Sat

He laughs softly. "I'm suddenly feeling older...but I've fared well enough, I'm here after all." (NT) -- Black Death, 18:17:54 06/15/02 Sat

::his own voice fills the air with his subtle laughter and smiles. "I am glad to see you once more. It was very still and dull around here for a while.":: (NT) -- Death & Destruction, 15:56:57 06/16/02 Sun

He rolls his eyes. "Spend a week in Frightening Plains and you'll be thankful for what little action there is here." (NT) -- Black Death, 18:16:56 06/17/02 Mon

::OoOo...I bet it does get a bit frightening in Frighenting Plains with no one to talk to except the dead grass beneath your hooves. Tosses head, sending light-coloured mane flying. He then breaks into a rear, pretending to strike at Death:: (NT) -- Destruction, 21:08:48 06/17/02 Mon

He snorts, ducking his head and darting sideways, grinning, before leaping forward towards Destruction, whirling and aiming a kick just to the right of him. (NT) -- Death, 15:00:15 06/18/02 Tue

::laughs and steps to the left. Young stallion strikes out with a foreleg trying to catch Death. Frown comes 'cross face. "I'm not very good at this.":: (NT) -- Destruction, 18:28:25 06/18/02 Tue

He spins to face Destruction, shrugging slightly. "You're young still, it takes practice, training." (NT) -- Black Death, 15:06:25 06/19/02 Wed

"Practice. Training. Could you help me whilst you are here?" (NT) -- Destruction, 19:01:36 06/19/02 Wed

He laughs. "I'll be here a while, thankfully." Joy lights his eyes as he remembers...Cobweb was his, he did not have to fear rejection any longer...he wanted no other mare...jerked back to reality, he finishes. "Glady!" (NT) -- Black Death, 19:41:48 06/20/02 Thu

*smirk crosses face* -- Destruction, 07:50:41 06/21/02 Fri

His head shoots up as he notices the newcomers to the land. "First, we find out who they are." -- Black Death, 07:39:31 06/25/02 Tue
