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

The sturdy presence of Mouse beside her is a great comfort as news of Inka's passing makes Impa's whole body sag. She grieves the loss of her friend and closes her eyes, knowing now that when she prays to the stars above Inka will be among them, looking down as she looks up. It was inevitable, she knows, that her sisters should have passed on in the time they were apart. Many, many, many years have passed, and Impa herself is quite aged. Never had she thought she would live this long.

Never had she thought she would outlive those she loved. But this is not the first time that's happened, now is it? she thinks caustically in the face of her sorrow. The mare shakes out her mane and leans her weight to bump into Mouse, grateful more than she first thought possible to be reunited. "Inka was a great mare," she says, her voice heavy with grief. "I hope her passing was painless."

She makes an effort to raise her head past this melancholic news to take joy in the next piece: Adelheid's elevation to Codebreaker of the mountain. "I am happy to hear that," she says softly, but her voice carries a note of pride for the filly—the mare's success. Adelheid's childhood had seemed too turbulent for a foal, her mind at unrest where others romped and played more carefree. Impa hopes this station has steadied and fulfilled her in all ways.

Macabre's name, too, is familiar. Impa recalls the mare's arrival on the mountain, and again Inka's significant contribution to making all who traveled to the Peak feel welcome. She thinks of Macabre's uncertainty when invited to stay, but also how her scent lingered and Impa would catch sight of her still on the slopes. "I know Macabre," she says, her voice brightening a little more. "I am pleased to hear she chose to make the Peak her home; when first we met she seemed unsure of where to make a place for herself. It is good to meet you, Wasp. Is your mother well?"

It is Mouse who asks the question of the presence of the stallions, and for that she is grateful. The Peak may be home but she is no longer Prime Minister here, and knows that any questioning of hers would come across more as an interrogation in that respect. Impa has no desire to step on the toes of those who remained loyal to the Peak over all else; it is she who left her post to pursue her family, and seek answers to a personal matter that is, somehow, less resolved than ever despite her efforts. She is tired from her journeying and wearied further by the news of Inka's death, and she sinks a little into her grief, grateful it is Mouse navigating that part of the conversation and not her belligerent self.
