V2 After the Flood
The land is cursed with a toxic green slime. It's been this way for near 7 years. I don't know how this happened or why. I don't remember the great war as well as my father did. He knew it well, because he was the one that killed Zorren, the once ruler of Horizon Herd. My feather was Frazer, the head of Black Oak Herd. He was infected. I am infected. I am Schizo.
Before the flood, everything was crashing down. It was a year after the war, almost 2 after the first infection. The herds were frantic, Horizon Herd was becoming infected, Vortex was the head, Zorrons son. I was only 2 when the flood hit, but it is burned in my memory. I remember the new births, the foals that were killed. They inhaled water and their spirits left them. The young ones where gone first. As the waters grew higher, the larger horses that couldn't make it to higher ground were taken away too. They gagged and coughed, or sometimes just....sunk. Everyday the water grew higher, I was on the highest mountain on that side of the island with a few other horses. The water grew nearer, we were hungry and infected... survival to the finish.
At the time I had fear we were sinking into the ocean. I lived on East side of the island. I lived alone for five years. I ate the corpses of the others on the mountain at first, then I learned to fish.
The water was bitter and I only drank it when I had to. I gained more land as weeks went by. It only toke one year too flood, but five times that amount for their to be land. I don't travel far, because the decayed corpses disturb me even with me being infected. I figure there's more horses on the other side of the island. The western side.
The land is still moist and the corpses still lay where they died. Unidentifiable. All the water is infected now. The memories I have make being...just alive...painful. Flashbacks are worse, because it feels like I am there again. I would do anything to make them stop, maybe even die. I am infected. I am a murderer. I am alone. I am the king of my new land. I am the Eastern Kingdom ruler.
>>Season:
Autumn The air is crisp and the world is vibrant shades of browns, reds, oranges, and yellows. Your nostrils are filled with a burst of chilled air with each breath. The water is, on some days, warmer than the air. There is still breeding and foaling, though the conditions are becoming harsh at night for the foals. The fear of loss of food lingers in your mind as the fish begin to leave.... what or....who is your next meal?
