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.

When she was younger, Jetta had watched with interest as her mother's belly swelled in pregnancy with her siblings. In her eyes the process took only a few months before the resulting foal was born, but Inka had told her that the pregnancy was obvious to the mother long before her belly began to grow.

But how? Jetta had asked.

It is different for every mare, I imagine. You just know somehow. Your body feels different.

Jetta had never understood until now. It had been perhaps a month or two since she had encountered the pale stallion down in the lowlands - far too early for her to begin showing - but tiny details in the way her body operated had been altered: some good, some unpleasant. For instance, she could now sleep soundly through the night. She hadn't had a single vision. Sometimes her abdomen was gripped with unusual cramps, or she'd feel an odd ache deep inside her, just above her pelvic floor.

It may have simply been because she was more rested these days, but she was also more energetic. This was almost certainly why she found herself hiking downhill one summer afternoon, with the premonition that she would go on a long walk in the shade of the forests below. When the sound of tumbling rocks reached her ears, she diverted her course, thinking that perhaps she would catch one of the other Vulcans on her way down.

To her surprise, it was a new face that greeted her: a Friesian mare, black as night. The stranger's similarity in appearance to her mother was astounding, and Jetta knew at once she must talk to her, so she hurried down the slope as quickly as she could, emitting a friendly nicker to catch the stranger's attention.

She was slightly out of breath when she reached her, but that did not stop her from flashing a bright smile. "Hello. Sorry to stop you on your way up, but are you new?"
