Artist's Comments

'Canter of Pride'

The 'Canter of Pride' is a part of the battle proceedure for stallions in the wild, and resembles a horse performing dressage movements

paraphrased from Horses, their lives in pictures: Beatrice Michel (It's fairly old)

---------------------------------------------------------------

So... Ts'oow you may already know, he's my fursona and my main charrie these days, as I don't RP.

The liver chestnut there is Echthroi, his equine nemesis. Echthroi's stats:

Echthroi - greek for Enemy
Stallion
Mustang
Live chestnut - 1 white sock, white 'badger' face (split stripe)
15.2hh ish

Echthroi and Ts'oow are enemies because of Ts'oows association with man, after meeting Ts'oow when he had just entered the wild. Echthroi also doesn't like the fact that Ts'oow is part mustang, and indeed snubs any horse that isn't mustang, leading to a huge problem with The Broken Herd in general.

I bought a cactus. A week later it died. And I got depressed, because I thought, Damn. I am less nurturing than a desert.
