The island was quiet, soft, and covered in a pearled mist this day, a mist that clung to sweaty hides and great rocks like a warm fleece clings to the soft skin of a new lamb. The desolate meadow was difficult to see in the vague landscape, but it was there, tucked away in the forest and bordered by mountains. It wasn't a big meadow, but it was too vast to be called a clearing, or a field, so, meadow it was.

It was in this meadow that the mare first showed herself, one large grey hoof crushing the thick green carpet. Upon her elegant, muscular neck sat her broad head, her brown eyes scanning the horizon for any threats, one eye, the right, slighted misted like the fog from her blindness. Stormy sensed no threats or life, but her wary nature did not subside as she ventured out into the open, leaving the trees in her wake. A thick black banner swirled behind her in the form of a tail, swishing her hindquarters to rid her flank of nonexistent flies.

When the mare reached the middle of the green, she failed to pause, cutting across the diameter of the open, when she heard an unmistakable rustling in the trees to her left, a few hundred meters away. Not one to be flighty, the horse's head raised to she pinned her ears, eyes narrowing to slits as her body tensed for a confrontation. "Who's there?" She called out, tail flicking in annoyance. "Show yourself, I know you're there. Don't make me come and get you out!" Stormy was practically growling. For such a young mare in such a dangerous world, her voice held no fear, even though the intruder could be a stallion waiting to claim her. Instead she was bold where most would be fearful and cower.

Adraxxia moved swiftly across the islands. They were short and brisked with light sand, some covered in lush greenery. The greenery was generally thick with very few openings to squeeze through, but she managed.

Her body was slender, slightly feline like, but it had done her good through her short life. She was looking for something, her expression was hardened and her eyes were in a squint as she concentrated. Her body morphed quickly from a clam teal into bright, vivid oranges and pinks. She was becoming frustrated way to quickly for her mind to handle.

Her ears perked forward as she halted. She could hear another equine talking. The equine's voice was harsh, but very feminine as it asked who was making the racket. She became worried, because she had thought she was being silent, but when she had stopped so had the noises. Only was she about to step forward had they started up again, a sigh of relief escaped her lips, so it wasn't her.

Then what was causing all the noise? Draxxi exposed herself to the mare, her body adorned with those still vivid colors. But she kept he expression cool, and welcoming. The mare was new the land, new comers were an odd site for Draxxi these days, but she appreciated them.

"Well... Welcome to Equinox, dear. Though, these noises don't sound very welcoming do they?"

Draxxi studied the mare, her body was ebon and shined lightly with any faint movements, a sign of good health in these days. Her mane and tail appeared medium length, again normal, but one of her eyes was glazed over with a white tint.

What had happened? She averted her eyes so not to stare, out of respect for the new being, it simply wasn't any of her business, the mare had obviously lost some sight in the eye. Previous skirmishes probably, but of course in all possibilities it could be a birth defect her parents passed on.

"What name have your parents forsaken you with?"

At the sight of such a stunning and etheral creature, most would have been struck speechless in her old homeland, but Stormy simply eyed the mare and flicked her tail, her threatening posture far from abandoned, but the stance more relaxed than offensive now. Her ears swiveled to delicately catch the unicorn's words, quietly voicing her thanks of the welcome, but when the exquisite animal inquired her title, Stormy raied her proud head once more, answering in a proclamation of, "Stormy is what my parents and herd called me, after the skyweather under. And you, mare, your name is?"

Stormy was a little offended by the mare's eying of her blind eye, which hadn't gone unnoticed, but, she did not say anything. If she wanted to know, she could ask. It wasn't as though it was a big deal to the ebony animal. Stormy wasn't a creature to be ashamed of faults. She was too bold and proudheaded to be so naive. She took everything in stride to throw it back to the world in a haughty display of fiery filly. But, we'll get to that later.

Stormy still eyed the trees warily. What if this horse hadn't been making the rustling noises? She looked to be far too elegant and generally floaty to be making such a ruckus. So, the three year old kept eying the woods, her body tensing slightly again when the faintest sounds of movement could be percieved withen the dense foliage.
"Obviously, it wasn't you making those sounds." She told the other equine, rather irratated that there was still something out there to worry over. "Better find out what, hm?" She pawed the ground and snorted a challenge, not bothering to voice her threats again. whatever was in the bush and trees had surely heard her the first time, and Stormy was a horse who was fond of repeating herself.

Draxxi turned towards the area in which the sounds were emitting themselves from. She eyed the mare from the corner of her eye, the mare was unnerved by the noises. She was not however, she was used to the noises of Equinox, she had been living here her entire life however.

Stormy? That was the name her parents had given her, an.. Odd name she supposed, simple though, much more so than Adraxxia. Eyes drifted back to the area of the noise. The mare wanted to find out what it was? She didn't know Equinox could be a dangerous place. She would learn.

"Adraxxia, Queen of the South, Miss Stormy... As for finding out the cause of the noise, I think I'll stay here, wouldn't want to much myself in a mess such as that. Equinox has plenty of danger, elsewhere for me. The Islands aren't something you want to mess with, unless for adrenaline of course."

There were many creatures on Equinox, some left over from the people or the older years, but new had adapted. Some even said those from outer space had joined the living after the people had gone.

Draxxi's hot colors soon faded to those of the stars. Her body a deep teal-green base, with bright gleaming stars shining across it. They even had their own glow, and possibly moved similar to that of the others, the entire solar system implanted on one single body.
