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.

ReYHa

They say that you are capable of conquering any mountain. While the metaphorical they, mean the equally metaphorical mountains, Reyha had always chosen to take that statement rather literally and as something of a challenge. It is for this reason that she now finds herself standing at the very apex of the lost islands, looking down on the world below. Strangers wander to and fro, the occasional few stopping to show that they are not as oblivious to each other as they are to her on her perch.

A slick sheen of sweat glistens across her already shiny coat, the sole visual reminder of the arduous trek that had taken her up the rocky mountainside. There had been plateaus along the way, perfect areas for resting and living, yet she had paid them little attention. Her goal was to make it to the top and now that she is here, it will be the journey back down that will be the true adventure.

If she decides to leave, that is.

There is something comforting about the dizzying heights of the peak. Perhaps it is the feeling of being able to see every little detail of the land below, a silent onlooker of every chance encounter, budding friendship and bloody rivalry. She could get lost up here if she isn't careful, this time as metaphorically as "their" mountains.

She could become the watcher woman of this tower, always concerned with those around her yet never acknowledged or allowed to mingle with those same horses she looks out for. What a life that would be, she thinks with a shudder, so difficult to withstand yet so easy to fall into.

The feeling a loneliness strikes her quite suddenly like ice to her heart, the warm air around her beginning to feel colder than it should. Today will not be the day she is forgotten. No, today is the beginning of her adventure back down to the earth below.
