Boss's Decree

"For every brother you bring to our
midst, you may keep a trinket all to
yourself. She will not be sullied or traded, unless you deem otherwise. But should you bring a mare here without a new brother first, then I will consider her property of the Lagoon as a whole
and do with her as I see fit." - Garmr

The Offspring

None

Rules

• The Lagoon is where homeless stallions come to live as a brotherhood. Mares may not live here except as captives or companions for the Leaders.

• Soldiers keep mainly to fighting, Thieves keep mainly to raiding, and Associates may do both, neither, or act as diplomats. Members may issue their own battles and raids, but should generally consult the General, Marauder or Boss for permission.

• All major decisions are determined by vote, but the Boss maintains order within the Lagoon 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 Lagoon works on the Rules page.

• Upon election, the Boss can issue a rule for members to follow during their tenure. It is up to leadership to enforce.

Making love to a m e m o r y




"If Love himself weep, shall not lovers weep,
learning from what sad cause he pours his tears?
Love hears his ladies crying their distress,
showing forth bitter sorrow through their eyes
because villainous Death has worked its cruel
destructive art upon a gentle heart,
and laid waste all that earth can find to praise
in a gracious lady, save her chastity."


Weeks had passed, and much to Macabre's surprise, she hadn't seen anyone at all. The small chestnut mare from the Peak was good at evading -- she'd spent the better part of her life on the run and hiding from the Reaper. And as it turned out, the Lagoon was an excellent place to hide. Its backdrop of murky soft earth covered in dead trees and thick brush gave Macabre plenty of off-the-trail nooks to cower in mostly undetected. It seemed that the numbers in Cullen's crew were quite low, too. As she only picked up a handful of unique musks, ones she countered over and over again. Macabre didn't know if the low numbers made it better or worse for her -- there were fewer bachelors to have to watch out for, that much was true. But it also meant that Cullen had less responsibility, and fewer bodies to keep him busy with.

Nevertheless, it seemed as though the stallion whom was once so dead set on dragging her back here hardly had an interest in following up on his new "trinket." At least for now.

Macabre was grateful for the warmer weather. The Lagoon, though situated on an island known for its moderate temperatures, was bone-chillingly cold in winter. She blamed the creeping damp chill on the humidity here, and the terrain's stagnant pool of water at its core. But winter had morphed into spring, and now was edging into summer. There was enough new vegetation to keep the petite mare properly fed. While physically, the mare was doing just fine, mentally, she was a wreck.

This long period of isolation was not new to Macabre. She'd spent the bulk of her life traveling alone. But that was before she was a mother. Her heart ached every day for her daughter. She day dreamed of what Wasp was doing, hopefully alongside Bozena and the rest of the Peak's herd. How she longed to be back there with them. Soon, she told herself on the particularly rough days. Soon enough, she'd be back home.

There were days on end where Macabre would move through the brush at night, her senses on high alert, as she searched for Cherish. Ever since she and Wasp had met the peculiar mare back in the Falls, Macabre had worried about her well being. But the mare was proving difficult to find here in the Lagoon. Perhaps she had run away. Macabre swallowed hard against a lump in her throat, hoping this was the case. She didn't want to consider what could be the other outcome: that Cullen's physical abuse had escalated, and it came with dire consequences. At this point, her thoughts were all speculation, as she hadn't seen Cullen or Cherish with her own eyes just yet. But maybe that would soon change.




"Hear then how Love paid homeage to this lady;
I saw him weeping there in human form,
observing the stilled image of her grace;
and more than once he raised his eyes toward Heaven,
where that sweet soul already had its home,
which once, on earth, had worn enchanting flesh."
