PRIME MINISTER'S DECREE

"None." - Leader

The Offspring

Diccon (Cicada x Khar'pern)

Rules

• The Vulcan Peak is where homeless mares come to live as a sisterhood. Stallions may not live here except as captives or companions for the Leaders.

• Warriors keep mainly to fighting, Thinkers keep mainly to raiding, and Politicians may do both, neither, or act as diplomats. Members may issue their own battles and raids, but should generally consult the General, Codebreaker or Prime Minister for permission.

• All major decisions are determined by vote, but the Prime Minister maintains order within the Peak and has the final say.

• Elections for leadership positions will be held every TLI summer, provided the qualifying criteria are met.

• You can find detailed information about how the Peak works on the Rules page.

IMPAZIENZA

It seemed the mountain had been abandoned.

Impazienza could not fault any mare for their departure. The Peak was hardly an accommodating land with its steeply rising grades and chilly thin air, and the Prime Minister herself was hardly the picture of sociability. No, she was a stern, aged thing left to rot alone on the slopes.

So be it.

The blanketed draft patrolled her mountain relentlessly, looking for any signs of old life or new as the cold she blessed slowly rolled off the Peak and left behind a balmy spring breeze ruffling her hair. It had been some time since she’d secluded herself by her favorite pile of boulders or hidden on the shores of the great blue lake cupped near the height of her home, and longer still since she’d walked the wide skirt of the Peak under the pretense of patrol. Today she moved in earnest, cycling between all the most popular spots in which she recalled seeing mares gathering. She was not as young as she once was, and while the steep inclines of the Peak strained her muscles Impazienza knew well enough to proceed at a reasonable, unhurried pace. Much like a glacier: cold, immense, and quiet.

She stepped onto flat ground and saw a horse frolicking near a pond on the far end of a wide clearing. The Prime Minister kept to a walk until she got a little closer— her eyesight was not what it used to be, and given that she had only one eye from which to see anyway, it was a sour realization that the sight she had always taken for granted was beginning to fade. Her joints hurt in the mornings, and her back sloped far more than a younger mare’s. No doubt there was more white at the front of her body than the back of it— not that she’d been anywhere near a source of water to catalogue the latest signs of her aging. Impazienza huffed a low sigh and peered at the mustang she neared. The short grulla could be only one mare.

“Mouse! Mouse!” Aches and pains forgotten, Impazienza launched herself across the flat expanse of unshorn grass with a high whinny to herald her arrival, feeling her heart thud unpleasantly in her chest and an unfamiliar tightness making it difficult to breathe. Still, “Mouse!” she cried again, and slowed her headlong run so she didn’t bowl the smaller mare over as she shoved her nose against the mustang’s neck. Impa lipped at her friend’s skin while she snuffed, confirming that it was indeed her Mouse and ensuring that the little mare had suffered no injuries in their time apart

It had been too long.

“I thought I’d die alone up here,” she said, her mind not having quite caught up with her tongue.
