- the Prairie stands as a symbol of peace and prosperity among the islands - anyone is welcome to live here so long as they do not bring harm to the Prairie or any of it's residents - adventure and exploration is not only allowed, but encouraged! residents are asked to use their better judgement and not travel to places that could bring them harm - the head of the prairie has final say in all prairie matters. the secondary and third positions are not able to be challenged for and are selected by the head - the guardians take on a more active role in the prairie; they must protect the inhabitants of the prairie and go on patrols of the prairie borderlines and shore. they can welcome strangers to the prairie and invite anyone to live here, though they must inform one of the leaders of any newcomers or visitors | ||

It's hard for me to explain in words the way I feel when I am around this mare. While she dozed I thought a lot about it. Is this how Evaline feels about Paradiso? Is that why she was so angry when I sent her away to the Dunes? Or perhaps the relationship was something else entirely, something I couldn't completely comprehend because I'd never experienced it before. This mare was a stranger, someone I did not know. She had no connection to my family. No similar bloodlines. She was merely someone who needed help. And I wanted to be the one to help her. Almost compulsively. Definitely selfishly. It wasn't that I was afraid to introduce her to the rest of the herd. I really wasn't. Actually, I couldn't wait to bring her more fully into our fold. But everything I did around her I thought about more carefully than with any other equine I'd ever met. I hovered, perhaps too much. My heart beat frantically in my chest when I left her for mere minutes for the usual morning patrol. I felt a strange tightness in my gut when I finally saw her stir. The sensation was unsettling and electrifying at the same time. I didn't understand it, but I knew I couldn't pull myself away. There was a strange vulnerability to the way we stood in front of each other now. I, too, struggled to stand confidently in front of her, though I wouldn't dare leave her side. I smiled awkwardly because I didn't know what else to do. Suddenly I felt foolish for all the talking I'd been doing, clearly overcompensating for her lack of response. Not that I wanted her to suddenly start talking back. I'm fairly certain at this point she never would. I felt a sudden surge of relief when I saw her crooked smile, and nickered eagerly to show just how happy that made me. "Good. I'm glad." I said, stumbling over my words just like before. When she approached me, I stood silently frozen. My nostrils flared as I took in her scent, and my eyes were wide with fear of not knowing how to react. But when I felt the warmth of her nose against my shoulder, a chill ran down the length of my spine. I breathed a heavy sigh, relaxing the muscles that had tensed during the build up to her gentle and thoughtful touch. I lay my neck over hers briefly, nostrils flaring and sending strands of her mane this way and that. I wanted to tell her everything was OK now, but that seemed childish and strained. Instead I said: "I wish I knew what to call you."

Was I left behind?
