 Nothing held him at Dark Evergreens, and so he had left to rejoin his family here, home in Evil Valley.

Evil Valley. As the black stallion journeyed within, he cannot help but notice the change time had wrought upon the once desolate earth. Never had one of true black-hearted wrath belonged here, under the sparse trees and harsh sun, and love had transformed it into a luscious land where jokes and pranks and - yes, true love - were frequently acted out. The womb of the earth had been roused by the actual goodness of the evils that had, over time, come and gone and dwelt on it; feeding off the food it had given and drinking its clear water.

And the land would continue to prosper - this the stallion knew. It didn't matter how many occupants inhabited the land, or even how active they were; their presence fed the land even as the land fed them. And yet what of him? The first - the one who had come and had taken the whole land, the section, through a show of strength and worth from the former queen, inviting others to share with him its wonders...?

Malussinn smiled and shook his head, smoothly slowing from a steady canter into a walk. He was a father, that was what he was. He finally had a chance to live his life over again as a mate and a father, with a family he loved - not to mention the others in his large family, the ones he had neglected as he played king. This time, though, he would do it right. Regret would be a thing of the past as he looked ahead to the future, and, of course, lived the present. Though he might easily accept, and even happily, the role as king again, it wasn't the time to worry or wonder. Let others ponder about the situation, about Ziraga... perhaps next the time he sees the palimino killer he would thank him for this unexpected gift.

"Cirrus?" Malussinn now wandered almost aimlessly as he sought out his mate and children. "Psyche? Maleah?"

*Trotting over to not far off, he watches his entrance silently, glad to see the steed again. Seeing him happily gazing about was slightly baffling, but relieving.

]Watches from a distance atop cliff, straining neck to gaze upon the King. Drops upon one knee, though the King was not there to see it. Dial touches terra, holding it for three seconds before once more raising dial to watch. Dark orbs watch motionlessly. Banner waves wildly in the wind, before closing lids, focusing energy. A sliver of white light goes forth from cranium, entering that of the King. Mind is focused, reading the King's. He is overcome by a warm feeling, and a warm smile crosses labrums. He finally approaches he o' valiance.["Hello, my King. I am called Death Moon."

"Thank you, Ocean Depths." He grinned at the stallion. "Your welcome is gratifying to a lonesome traveler." Suddenly, the black stallion's eyes widened as he experienceed something he had hoped never to feel again. His muscles taut, he whipped his head around to search for the one who had invaded the privacy of his mind, his ears unconsciously flattening.

So it was with silence that he first greeted Death Moon. Slowly he relaxed as he studied the new stallion. "Greetings, Death Moon. Forgive my rudeness; there are personal experiences behind it. How may I help you?"

She trots over, a bit unbalanced, a bit on her forehand. She breaks into a fast canter, trying to gather her legs. In the process she speeds up a bit more, then skids to a haphazard halt in front of her father. She peers up lovingly at him, her little brush tail going back and forth furiously. "Daddy!"

"Hello, Maleah," he responded lovingly to the filly, bowing his head to nuzzle the soft fur of her neck. And then, "And hello to you, Carinosa." Though not as lovingly as with the filly, he smiled in fond greetings towards the energetic mare. Turning, he was about to say some about mind reading when he was made to pause.

Though he had spoken to many - and had met many - over the course of his life, the words uttered by Death Moon are enough to send shivers of doubt down his spine. Nevertheless, the black stallion remained calm as he watched the strange stallion.

She snorts curiously, but says nothing. The newcomer had a strong feeling around him, though the filly couldn't put her finger on what exactly it felt like. She peered back at her dad, then Car. "Loud 'n silly," She said pointedly at the mare.

"What war?" He asked at last, his eyes careful. "Do you mean that war Ziraga was hoping to start so that he might avenge his captured foal and the colt's mother? My view? I am against it, for now. I like to be more practical in these cases, and my practicallity is telling me that we're not ready for any kind of fight at this moment. The lights are united - we are not; we have never truly been. On that line, what reason do we have to go to war? The only reason I can come up with is boredom."

For a moment he was distracted from Death Moon, snorting with amusement at Carinosa's words... how well he remembered them along with pickly-puffs and the like. Then he paused mid-thought, abruptly worried. Would the mare next be trying to feed her homemade food to his fillies?

]Talks slowly["A conspiracy so to say...we talk some of the Lights into turning against their royalties, and attacking them...once all those Lights that have turned against the Royals have been killed, the Light side will be weak with battle. This is when we send our troops in, going to finish them off. This would take weeks of training, selection of the finest warriors and mages, going on quests for powers to use against the Lights, selecting ranks in our new-formed army...though it would not have to be the official Dark army, because I do not agree fully with Ziraga, you don't, and most would follow you before him, any day. Together, I belive that we should be able to amount a force of the most elite warriors, enough to kill either the Light King or Queen, as well as many other important leaders. If we could take out those important ones, the Lights will crumble, having no leaders to fall back on. We would then regroup and attack again with those still alive, killing as many more important Light leaders as we could. To prepare for this, if you should approve, I have a way to bring back others from the afterlife, those who are valuable warriors."

(OOC- Even though we're talking about going against the light queen, Ashley's still owner of the game. Have you talked to her about raising the dead? The dragon section others were raising the dead, and she finally told them to stop. So... before anything gets to serious, could you ask her about it?)

"All right, you've told me how. Now tell me why." His eyes, blood red and cold, looked away from Death Moon to study his daughter. "When I first came here I was a sterotypical evil. I was power-hungry, and I would strive to get what I wanted. I battled a dragon my second day, and was rewarded with a prize: a black stone with healing powers for only one time. When I won, I went to DOL and asked to be king. She granted my request, and I replaced the inactive queen as a determind ruler. I worked hard to fill these lands with evils. I hardly ever talked to DOL; hardly knew her. Time past. My brother had been the second to join me, and he soon acquired a mate, just as I had. They had a child... but that's not important. What is is that a week or so later after challenging the dragon, a colt stumbled into my territory... this place. He was terribly wounded and nearly dying. I saved him, with that black stone. Much later I finally had my chance to meet DOL, Queen of the lights. We had a war and she ended it by becoming my captive. I eventually allowed to go home, free, though technically she is still my captive - to this very day." Raising his gaze, he returned it to the stallion. "Other things happened, Death Moon. I learned and changed. If I had been anyone else during those changes, I might have become light... but I didn't. I love this place too much to leave it - and that's what I've been coming to: love, emotions, all those things. Lights and evils are really no different from each other, in faults and otherwise. I will remain evil for all my life, Death Moon, and accept that we are enemies, but I will not approve of an attack that has no real reason. I will not aid in killing families and individuals that are not guilty of such consequences."

She listens to her father, but doesn't really understand. She doesn't know of killing and unreasonable hatred, all she knows of is the love of her family and a certain curiosity that can only be attained by youth. Her wide lavender eyes follow her father's gaze to the stranger, and her ears flick about randomly.

Not her in particular, but many others from my lands that have migrated here. I have a hatred, one that will never die, for Daughter of Light, for Star From The Sun, and of many others here. I will never be able to quell this hatred, until I get my revenge."

Face unsettled, he edged slightly closer to Carinosa. The stranger was cold and more bloodlusting than anyone he had ever met- and it sent a chill over his clydesdale body. Listening in careful thought, he speaks not, but debates on both points.

"Might I ask what your companions and you were doing at the time of your death?" His voice was only politely inquiring, tilting his head slightly as he watched Death Moon closely. "I know DOL - perhaps too well for one of evil descent and evil lifestyle - but I know her, and I know that she would not kill needlessly; it hurts her. And now I will show you how I can be evil, Death Moon, and even uncaring, if need be. Though I feel for your death, and the deaths of your companions, I still believe that though you may have a personal reason to destroy the lights, it is not worth risking all the lives involved. Though death may seem as nothing to you, dead as you once were, to me, as a being never killed, it is precious - even a light's."

We were warriors, some of the only ones on the Evil side, and we were some of the only trained."
