Of Lord, Heros and Horses

A Golden Glimpse

(That is what the horse looks like, She is my own character (OC) and I love her so much~) 

It was almost sundown, the sky was a blissful orange and pink. Hardly any spot was free of clouds, which were tinted beautifully. They were almost like a barrier, so thick and unyielding. A forest that was known as Faron woods. A gem of a forest it was. Those thick leafy branches barely let the light in, yet when it did it was an amazing sight to behold. The insects, the animals going about their life in peace. The dense plants that covered the land.

The dirt roads that wound around between trees and bushes. A small stream of water followed the road not far away. The gentle round river rocks laid in and to the sides of the water. Some animals do in fact travel in the stream to hide their presence. Yes it is a smart tactic.

Doing so leaves no scent and tracks to follow. And wherever water is food is as well. As of right now an animal was walking through the small gentle stream of flowing water. Hooves scraping against the round and smooth rocks. A long black tail of hair draped in the water, only a fourth of it was wet. A bright golden sunlight equivalent coat with a dark brown almost black muzzle and leggings. White paint markings covered about 60% of the animal's defined and toned body.

A big star blaze on that delicately shaped and curved face. Bright brown eyes that showed fire hidden behind them. A medium length main that was both black and white. Evenly separated. Yes it was a horse. Something you wouldn't normally see alone.

However this mare was, she prefered it actually. Spurred on by the adventurous spirit. She bour scars as reminders from her past adventures, yes most were just nicks or bite marks. Mostly from other horses. The only evidence that meant she was a troublemaker.

The only reason there weren't predatory scars was because she was a slippery equine. A fast strong willed horse would be a good steed, that was if you could catch it. What was her name? While no one that wasn't an animal knew it, it was indeed something befitting a fine steed like herself.

Elidora...

That was her name. It meant a few things, and they were Sun dancer, sun warrior and child of the sun. She was like a gift of the sun, the sun's child. Graceful in her every movement and motion.

The water the mare was traveling through splashed about as she trotted with sheer grace. Not even the round rocks could falter her movements. Tail raised and flagging with nothing but pride. Ears pointed forwards and her head arched like a battling stallion, obviously enjoying herself. If the way she carried herself wasn't evident enough.

Elidora had to be around 4 years old, still young for her age and skills. Her majestic gait was cut short when a questionable noise that sounded by the dirt road. The road that wasn't far off. Almost like a melodic noise. Something that peaked her interest. Something she hadn't heard before.

Something that could rival her own graceful nature. Head held high and pointed to the offending noise. Nostrils flaring and puffing out hot air. Head and neck extending out with signs of interest. Treading silently through the water. Tail no longer flagging but laid flat against her rump, only occasionally flicking around. The end result was a whip like sound with every movement.

Moving through a slightly dense bush, she came into view of what had or must have made the noise. A kid, a human kid from what she could tell. Though the pointed ears were something she wasn't used to. Perhaps a different kind of human. Sun kissed skin, blond hair and such spirited blue eyes.

This human kid wore a peculiar get up. A green outfit or uniform with a long hat. A sword that was beautiful and graceful looking. The sword wasn't alone, some dinky wooden shield. Elidora leaned closer to get a better view.
