In the shadows of two of the tallest peaks in the mountain range, rests the land known as the Forbidden Dale. The forested path that winds down out of the mountains is steep and treacherous to those who do not know it's dangers. The mountains meld into rolling foothills - filled with broad gentle slopes, long narrow ridges, and miniature valleys. Vegetation of all sorts is abundant and the runoff of all the surrounding hills funnels into a long, narrow lake in one of the largest valleys. Beyond the undulating and green foothills resides a dark and deep forest; the trees are so dense that it is dim even in the light of day.

If you see something wrong or changes to be made, please let me know. September 8th - The Dale has become a part of Beyond the Mountains.

The herd list has been cleared, but I will add back any herd members who rejoin here on Beyond. July 9th - Updated the board. Rhaego has an open post in the lake for this breeding season for anyone interested. Also welcome Bastille whom will be serving the Dale in return for a home for himself, Larka, and their daughter Valerian. Rhaego is actively working to return Aileen back to the Dale. December 7th - After unintentionally forfeiting his land about a year ago, Rhaego has gotten him land back! He will be working on re-establishing himself and the herd that he had.

Just need to confirm who is in the herd and who is not, as well as the names of any foals born recently. Please respond before August 7th with the names of your characters who live here. Thank ya much! April 12th - With the warmer months and the growing season, Rhaego is focused on growing the herd and his bloodline.

January 13th - The Dale has been challenged for by a mare named, Apache. Rhaego has of course accepted and the battle is taking place now.

Rhaego tempers a snort at the other brute's reaction to his arrival. The guarded step multi-hued stallion takes forward to position himself more between Rhaego and the black and white dove is as much expected as it is provoking. It an unspoken language that draft is more than familiar with; so many times he had taken that same step forward with ears back, braced and prepared for nearly anything - it was a silent message of challenge, of a willingness to fight. Only when he had done that, it was rare that there had been a mare involved. Usually it was simply his ego or just the rights to lead the bachelor band for a time. It was a common occurrence then and Rhaego recognized it for what it was now.
As easily as he recognizes the battle-ready stance and the protective position in front of the mare, Rhaego reacts just as quickly. His muscles bulge beneath the mealy, red-gold pelt and he too shifts forward a small step in preparation to meet the black and red stallion in an attack, if it came to that. Though his wedge-shaped head rose a few inches more and his eyes narrowed further, glued upon any threatening movement in the stallion, Rhaego holds his ground and seems more willing (at least for the time) to bide his time rather than rush into a conflict. He is a brash horse but only when he is confident. Now, he lets his ears flick forward in a sharp motion - dark gaze brooding and calculating as he studies the horned equine, but still he listened attentively.
A slight confusion flickered on the dun's face when Rownan introduces Audacity and continues to state that she is the reason that they were there. The first thought to the stud's mind is that Audacity had fled from the patchy stallion, but that theory is dismissed as quickly as it pops into his mind upon hearing the next statement. The Gypsy mare shifts to whisper something indistinguishable to her companion and again Rhaego's ears tilt backwards before pressing forward and straining to hear what she was whispering about.
"Mutually beneficial?" He is suspicious, especially having just caught Audacity whispering, and cuts her a hard look. Turning back to place most of his focus upon the stud, Rhaego finds himself eyeing the golden horn that crowns Rownan's forehead rather than meeting his gaze directly the entire time. "Do you share those thoughts? Or do you speak for only her?" The stallion's words are rough with the natural deepness of his voice and he pauses expectantly for an answer. "It would seem so far that she is the one that is calling the shots. I have no desire to forge any type of alliance with anyone that is controlled by another..."
when you hear this song and you sing along but you never tell
then you're the fool, I'm just as well
