What would lay in these new forests beginning to surround her? Redux constantly had to ask that question, knowing well that there was never an answer— unless she could spy into the future beyond her deep orange eyes. Frost drifted from the clouded sky above her as she continued along a well-worn path in the snow. She traveled lightly in the trench of a deer trail, following it's sloping curves down from the mountains. Here the air was thicker and cold than the rocks that climbed to the heavens. Redux stood out in the empty vicinity. Her shaggy coat of a soft palomino color was her best defense against the cold weather at this point. Slightly skinny due to the lack of green vegetation, but overall, you could still tell she was built for running. A sleek, aero-dynamic build with light structure and long, muscular legs. Her cloven hooves crunched the newly fallen snow below her.

Redux's messy, curly mane fell against her shoulders and fell across her head as well. The mane was a spiced, fiery orange color, curled into ringlets naturally. The distinct "lions tail" she had was raised slightly to prevent it from touching the cold ground. Vivid orange ringlets also sprouted from the tip of her tail. She regarded the land around her with an anxious, but eager feeling. Something told her this place would be home from now on until she felt like moving on again. The unicorn moved quietly into the woods now and away from the openness of the valley. Redux moved through the snow laden forest, crossing frozen water beds, jumping over fallen trees, and pushing through barren thickets. Occasionally the mare would stop and shake the snow from her coat or mark a tree by rubbing the short horn on her muzzle across the birch. With the sun still shining behind the thick, frost filled clouds, she had a lot of traveling to do.

At one point near sun-down, Redux stopped in an open field. Snow blanketed the dry grass beneath. She sighed softly and watched the warm breath she expelled turn into a white puff. Turning her head to glance over her shoulder, the mare checked to make sure that she was not being followed. Watching, listening, and feeling, after a long moment she decided that everything was safe for her. Birds chirped in the woods surrounding the open meadow. Redux walked lazily to the south in hopes of finding food at some point. There was always a risk of starvation when searching through an unknown land.
