The damp, humid air wrapped around the chestnut painted mare. The ocean air and wind was a comforting thing to have on this sunny, warm spring afternoon. The paint mare hummed happily, blue eyes taking in the rainforest that stretched out before her, just beyond the sandy beach she currently stood on. The islands had been home since her birth; the islands had been the birthplace of her parents, and their parents, and so on. Granted they inter-mixed between both islands, but in the end, Xitlali’s loyalty had always remained with Inoa, much like her elderly mother’s had. After the death of her parents, she made her way to Inoa to see what the island was like – to see if her mother’s stories were true.

And she was definitely far from disappointed when she got here. Her mother had been right; the island was a very beautiful place to behold.

It was like she was always meant to live here, even. As soon as she had reached the shore of Inoa from Kalala, her body felt as if she had finally returned home from a long voyage. She immediately felt at ease on the tropical island and knew that no matter what, she would never leave this place behind. She knew that the large tropical island would, some day, be the home of her future children and the later generations of her lineage.

Despite how empty the island appeared to be, Xitlali was in no rush to explore the place she had decided to call home. With the cool ocean water churning around her legs, her flaxen tailed being pushed and pulled with the tide, she was perfectly content in enjoying the afternoon sun. An easy, relaxed smile pulled across her white lips as her blue eyes turned to the ocean’s horizon, to where the outline of Kalala was.

She felt like she had truly found paradise.

Some Days

I CAN'T EVEN TRUST MYSELF

I am perplexed by all the new things I have learned about Inoa in my short time of becoming a leader. I have discovered many things and have explored what I felt was every square inch of the island. I was content with my exploration, though, I had not found one other equine upon this island. Though, I take and complete my duties as if I had a full herd here. My eyes are closed as I rest for a short while in the middle of the day. I had quickly covered the perimeter of the first half of the island this morning and I was now taking a break. Long, creamy tresses hung limply at my side, swaying in the slight wind.

My nares flare as I open my eyes, short eye lashes pluming over light, faded green eyes. Sharp, solid hooves press into the moist Earth in the forest and a sheen has appeared on my light chocolate and white coat, the humid air clinging to me. I swing my hips around and push my powerful hind legs, muscles coiling as I thread through the trees. I skid out onto the beach and slow, raising my head. My audits swing forward and nares flare as a surprising scent hits me. I snort in slight excitement as I push myself into a trot, hooves picking up droplets of water and flinging them back as I work my way towards the scent at the edge of the water. The end of my tail is quickly wet and wraps around my hind legs.

As I round the corner, in the distance is another horse. My pace quickens and my hooves click slightly, the form becomes larger. I slow as I reach the mare, and while my head is held high confidently, I dip it slightly in respect, my figure relaxed and non-aggresive. I stop and offer a smile, "Welcome to Inoa." I say simply, "I am Chief Ryker. It it is nice to finally see another horse here," I say, my smile growing bigger. This mare was standing in the water, she seemed at awe. She is of a deep brown and painted ivory patches. I gaze at her before glancing towards the volcano to my right. I turn back to her, waiting for her reply. My thoughts are wrapped around this beautiful mare that stood before and hoping that she was here to join the herd.

It was quiet here, and incredibly peaceful. While it was satisfying to know Xitlali could easily find peace on this island in particular, she found it odd that there were no others. The only sounds of life were the birds with their songs, and various other forms of wildlife that chattered in the distance. So far, there had been no hide or hair of another equine. Only smells of them, and oh elusive they were. The scents Xitlali could find were old and washed out, as if no one had been around for quite some time. It made her sad to ponder such a predicament. Had the last islanders fled some terrible tragedy, or worse?

A slight frown pulled at her lips, her brow furrowing alongside it. It was perplexing to think that no one had bothered to come check on the status of the island, if it had indeed been abandoned. Why would someone even abandon this place to begin with? It was too beautiful to leave behind. There was certainly a story behind why the island was so empty, though it was perhaps a story the chestnut and white mare did not want to discover quite yet. With a shake of her head, the painted mare turned slowly in the water, as if to head back to shore. However, she paused in her movement, once her blue eyes settled on a figure approaching her. Taken aback at the sudden appearance of another equine, Xitlali remained planted within the shallow tide, unsure of what to do.

The scent reached her before he got close enough, revealing that he was indeed a stallion – and one of the stronger scents she had happened upon while she had been exploring. He greeted her with respect, with an easy demeanor to go with it, clearly showing he meant no harm and was in no way ruffled by her intrusion upon the island. The painted mare offered a smile of her own, glad to have finally found someone who resided on the island, and the chief no less! “A pleasure, Chief Ryker,” she replied politely, her voice cheery despite being startled only moments before. It was a soft, lyrical sound, comforting to hear, much like a mother’s embrace. “I apologize for my intrusion upon your island, I just couldn’t help myself. My name is Xitlali.”
