This was not her first invasion, she’d been apart of the attack on The Throat where she had faced Midas. With the safety of their young threatened The Basin had paid their debt in full. So long ago, so much had changed.

They left during the day, quiet footsteps put her behind DEIMOS and OPHELIA, she knew when they finally arrived upon The Falls the blood would begin pumping and her heart would beat against her ribs. Yet even just marching towards the impending battle had excitement and nervousness pounding through her veins; the battle lust stirred life back into her soul. How long had it been since she'd felt this alive?!

Shifting under her brand new armour, Arah hoped the sun would not reflect too heavily off of the silver. Still, she would not be without it offering protection her breast, shoulders, ribs, spine and croup. As a added bonus the armour also had pins to hold her mane and tail up from the ground preventing it from sweeping along the ground. The circlet protected her forehead and reached up to protect her ears, her glowing star marking shone brightly through the center, framed as if a gem. Four anklets protected her fetlocks, while silver chains wrapped around her flesh holding the armour in place. Underneath hung two moon amulets, she'd been saving them for such an event like this. Feeling like a warrior in her armour, the fae princess followed her leaders proudly.

OPHELIA's words reached her ears, the doe looked towards The Falls, a smirk painted across her delicate lips. A contact inside? Of course nothing had been left to chance. When it came to invasions was anything ever left to chance? Every tedious detail was studied and planned for, plots were made and executed with extreme precision. Their Lady turned and vanished again, if only Arah and Wynter were able to do the same. Her ivory coat reflected the colours of the sunset brightly, forcing her to stick to any shadow provided whether it be a taller herd mate's or cast by the surrounding trees, while the griffin was either walking or flying just above the knees of those around the duo.

They had arrived at The Falls; the domain of Midas and his family. Spreading out they watched and waited in silence. Once again OPHELIA spoke and the fae princess did as she was heeded, waiting quietly for either a command to continue or one to dispatch whoever had found them. Breaths caught in her throat she waited but it was just their guide OXY waiting to lead them in. The rushing waters muffled their footsteps as they slinked past the border. Heart pounding against her ribs, Arah stared across the land, watching any shadow that moved ready to spring into action at a moments notice.

Not long after ARCHIBALD's voice echoed over the land, the doe's head snapped up as OPHELIA encouraged Tinek to lead them. Wynter wanted to know if she was also free to take flight. 'Tabhair ifreann.' Spreading her wings to their full berth the griffin took off, swooping above the army checking and relaying what lay ahead to Arah. Every piece of knowledge was crucial.

Listening to OPHELIA's words Arah allowed herself to be swept up in the moment, proudly holding her head high, ready to reign over The Falls with destruction and chaos. They would colour the soil beneath their hooves with blood. "For The Basin. For my family. For our future."

By what right did the crumbling Falls judge, determine, condemn and sentence the might of Aurora Basin?
The Falls owed blood and The Basin was here to take it.

Charging across the land the doe splashed through the water and set her sights upon AFRICA. The lack of a second wing would make her an easier opponent to take down, building up speed and sparking her magic to life Arah began attempting to invade AFRICA's mind; taking over complete control of her thoughts. 'You are here to support The Basin!' The magic hypnotically floated over towards her target, 'you will not fight back.' Despite the adrenaline and excitement the voice was calm and collected. Not pausing for a moment Arah rushes towards the mare fearlessly. Slamming the brakes on at the last moment, the fae princess rears aiming to firstly pound and bruise the pegasus' leg before dragging her hooves against AFRICA's front left leg's flesh in an attempt to tear it away from the bone. Being only a head shorter, Arah can easily reach her target and still protect her soft underbelly. Wynter's blood curling screech sounded from above as she began spiralling in a dive towards AFRICA's eyes, hoping to distract the mare from Arah by injuring the pegasus’ eyes with her beak.
