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.

move your dead bones (rhaego)

Morte had found herself in a new land. It was strange being away from the only place you knew, but also exhilarating in a way. The young necromancer was unsure why this specific land had drawn her in but the vast landscapes of Mist Meadows had intrigued her. She was young and still had some growing up to do but Morte, at five years old, was already blossoming into a beautiful mare. She was dainty and elegant, sporting a slightly dished profile from her Arabian descent with thick rolling locks from her Andalusian side. Her legs were slender and strong with a good sized barrel. Her tail was set higher than and Andalusian's, but lower than a flowing banner of an Arabian. Her neck was arched and thick.

Her coat was a slightly greyed out black with speckles of cream and snow that started at the top of her neck and trailed down to end at the tip of her bright red tail. Her tail was matched by her equally red mane, and around her silver lavender eyes was a thick line of red. A cream coloured mask covered her face and her ears and double pronged rams' horns sprouted from just behind her ears. And there, hanging off the right horn hung a bird's skull.

She was definitely far from ordinary when you looked at her and the whispers of "dead worshipper" and "witch doctor freak" were all too common. Perhaps that's what necromancy was truly about but Morte had respect for the dead. Sure she was keen on raising an undead here or there but mostly because she was lonely. Not because she had some asinine thought that she was going to take over the world one dead horse at a time.

In fact Morte spent most of her abilities summoning spirits of the dead. She, for the most part, did not rouse their sleeping bodies from the dirt. She enjoyed conversing with the deceased, especially if it meant putting their still living family members at peace. It was nice to see a horse get closure.

All this thinking and not paying attention had led her to a craggy mountain side. Seemingly a dead end. But her eyesight was fairly keen and she squinted until she found a small beaten path. Perhaps it led to a ridge of some sort. Taking careful steps the mare ascended the rock until it peaked...and when right down again. With a sigh she realised she was stuck, there was no going back now.

One step. Two steps. And then she was sliding. Her hooves couldn't catch on anything and there she was sliding down the mountain side, tendrils whipped out behind her. She let out a little squeal of suprise and as she neared the bottom she pushed off the stone and leaped onto the grass. She landed rather...not so elegantly and lifted herself with a huff. Silver eyes turned upon where she had descended from and she frowned sourly. I guess she wasn't leaving any time soon. At least not until she figured out a better way to get up that.

Morte turned her attention back to the dale. Quivering nostrils alerted her to the presence of a stallion, mares, and even foals. This was a territory, it seemed. And she was trespassing. She snorted softly before letting a loose whinny into the area. Her tune was haunting like an estranged lover waiting for her soldier boy to return from the war, destined to wait for all eternity.
