Fall has arrived in the form of crimson and apricot speckled leaves and cool night-time breezes. Frost coats the grass in the mornings, the sun rarely peeks out from behind ominous lurking clouds, and the moon and stars are unreachable. Temperatures will probably stay cooler, and the weather will consist of the blurry dreariness we call overcast and light rain with a few chances of thunderstorms. All in all, it seems like a reasonable Autumn, but the chill in the air hints at a bitter Winter to come.

It's pretty spooky here; yet most new members of the ELBA tribe are somewhat attracted to this ancient ruin. Throughout most of the year, a gloomy cast of clouds and misted fogs - except on extremely sunny days, over take most of this region.
Ah, the lovely White Coast of ELBA! As beautiful as it may be, frigid winds blow across these sands, as well as the surrounding forestry. Located in the midst of this forest is a large stone with strange markings on it. Some have tried to translate it, but have failed. However, most think it is some ancient blessing carved there long, long ago when humans travelled to ELBA and, although the idea of humans is always unappetizing, horses have been using this place as a final resting place for decades upon decades. For those who do not come to die, they may come to leave the island for whatever reason by swimming out to sea to find their destiny elsewhere … unless they drown before they make it anywhere. But hey, it can’t be that hard to swim for miles and miles to find another island, right?
It shall be a plesant suprise to stumble across this land, even on a rainy day. For the colours lift the mood, there in the middle of this small valley sits a calm lake, with no current. Around the edges are dainty pathways that walk you around the perimeter of the valley, some leading into woods, others into small meadows. Young families often come here for a nice day out.
This is a strangely weird, yet totally wonderful place - if you travel a few miles South-East of the Castle, you find this - a small, yet define desert. Its sands are always warm, no matter the season, yet it gets awfully cold during the winter.The desert is five miles long, and five miles 'round with an 'oasis' in the middle. Its big, and plesant, with atleast six fully grown palm trees, various bushes and a deep pond big enough for two large horses to move freely in. Its remote out here, but my guess is that it could get fairly dangerous at night - when the predators come looking for the lost ones.
Nestled quietly away is a small beach; with white, hot sands and cystal clear waters. Here is a safe haven for foals two and under to gather. To reach this secret place, the young ones have to crawl through a narrow tunnel, and it brings them to the coast. Children can spend hours playing and searching happily in here to get away from their parents. There are rock pools, palm trees for shade, a few caves to explore and also a tiny dipped area where fresh greenary grows, incase they get hungry or thirsty.
This is where ALL the fights on ELBA will take place, pick your rules (aslong as you follow ours first) and once your fight is over, a staff member will decide a winner.The battlefield it a bizarre place, there are small clumps of grass, but no soil- instead there is sand, and to the south of the plain, you meet the sea, and the hungry waves won't stop at drowning a weakened one...
Here is where all couples come to mate. All you need to do here is post the name of the mare, and the name of the stallion in a thread; then wait until foaling season!
Ancient iron gates stand proudly before the City of Jade,this used to be the home of the Elba royal herds; before the great war began and slayed the King and Queen. A break in the ivy wreathes, which once bound the gates shut, has snapped, thus allowing the gates to part. A bright, eerie glow pulsates from the heart of this city, its unknown allure captivating by all who enters. Horses gather here to mourn over the lost Demitrius and Annisette. The King and Queen. The lands within the city remain the same, untouched and untamed by all.
When the light no longer sheds it warmth across the land, that is when we will no longer stand proud against your forces of darkness. So long as the sun has risen over the horizon, we will live another day, to breathe in the wonderful scents of the world and live without as much pain as we can. We are peaceful creatures, not of war and not of violence, for it is very much prohibited inside of the tribe walls - but do not underestimate us, we will fight if we see fit or as we are given orders by our faithful and ever vigilant tribes leader, who will be sure we live the best life that we can.
Look out ladies! When the tribes came into being the old dark king did not hesitate to secure himself as the leader of the mightier of the two. Under his rule the tribe is more like a massive nightclub then anything else, parties are plentiful and women always look their best. Seriousness is practically against the rules here and abstinence is frowned upon. Do not be fooled by appearances though; it is expected that should the drums of war be sounded that every last filly and colt would give their lives in defense of their tribe. For loyalty is valued above all here. Loyalty not to ones family or lover but to the tribe. To the mighty stallion who leads them. Tread carefully here; some rules are not meant to be broken.
Welcome to the land of the renegades! The equines that reside under madam VALERIE'S rule belong to no particular alliance. The Queen of the land thinks it pure to always have an option in life, could you happily reside in a place with no alliance? I think so! All is kept controlled by the Queen and her minions, the Renegades make no alliance with others, and allow none of the other two tribes to enter and poison their way of life. Is this the way for you?
