And now, I finally know what it feels like
To risk everything and still survive
When you’re standing on the battlefield
And all the pain is real



The trek from the Threshold to the snowy land of Frostbreath had proven to be a relatively long one, but it had been nothing that the stallion couldn't handle. With years of travels under his girth, he had embraced every step of it at Elizabeth's side. Xanthos had initiated in small talk as they went along, but had taken care not to get on the mare's nerves. He'd been somewhat surprised by her nature, as he'd expected her to be snappy and otherwise uncaring for him. However, she had offered to bring him here, to give him guidance in this new land. While he had been unsure of her esoteric words, he had accepted. What Xanthos had gotten himself into, he was uncertain, but sure to find out soon enough.

It had been cold back in the Threshold, but as soon as they neared the steppe, the bitter cold sent a shiver down the grullo's spine. This was a kind of cold he'd never known before, and for a moment, he wondered how anything, or anyone, could survive in such a harsh environment. As he moved further into the land, he simply drank in the eerie beauty of the land. The snow stretched innocently for miles and miles, and for a moment, he felt as if he were a young colt again. The urge to take off and kick up the snow was strong, to relive his youthful splendor, but it was quick to vanish when he remembered that he was not alone, and that, after all... It might not make for a good first impression to anyone else.

A warm exhale escaped him then, and turned his head, yellow eyes examined the land more thoroughly. Elizabeth had said only unicorns inhabited the land here, and yet, he saw none. That did not mean, however, that there weren't any with eyes already upon them...

That’s when you realize
That you must’ve done something right
Cause you’ve never felt so alive
