"Where brilliance is good and madness is better..."
Helovia Info
Helovia opened in February 2012! We are an active fantasy equine RPG
Where once the world narrowed into naught but gray dust and desolation, the gods called for life. Wielding the elements of fire and light, dark and wind, earth and water, spark and time, they have created Helovia. The realm is set within the mythical globe of Loorien, a planet rich with all variety of creatures and blessed with all manner of magic. Originally populated by nomadic, tribal characters, they've since grown into massive empires saturated with culture and history. Separated into four distinct segments of Helovia, called "The Regions," each band of horse strong enough and capable enough, took up the power and responsibility of leadership. Unicorns, old, wise and mysterious, took to the north, hidden in forests of mists and shadows and rarely making themselves known beyond their cliffs of the World's Edge. Equines, vast, organized and militaristic, split into two, one group went north to the Windtossed Foothills and the other group went south to the Dragon's Throat. Pegasus remained nomadic, making their homes in various parts of The Wilds in a migratory manner. For many generations, the land was peaceful and calm, but peace was never the way of the gods. With a clash of argument, war and bloodshed massacred Helovia, and in the aftermath, the realm was eerily quiet. Now, as newcomers sweep into this land, they are met with the lingering bitterness of the gods and the struggle to reclaim what was lost. Nothing remains safe or certain while sorcerers and soldiers alike brood and bide their time for revenge, honor and glory.

Endless Night :: Broken Magic Plot ☼ - 8/30/13 - The earth god has returned and is walking across Helovia to heal the land. Every area can now be considered lush and prosperous, but the sun has still not risen.
☼ - 7/19/13 - The moon has risen in the sky, heralding the return of the Goddess of the moon. Lamp trees which light the paths have grown brighter, moon flowers which grow in dark places have begun to grow and prosper and the world is brighter, filled with a new hope.
Endless Night :: Dead Magic Plot ☼ - 6/22/13 - The gods of Helovia, in order to protect the world, have disappeared into the rift, leaving the world sunless, moonless and magic-less in their absence. Only the herdlands have a source of light, but lamp-trees with glowing leaves and branches sporadically line the popular roads and paths from place to place.
Doppleganger Plot ☼ - 6/20/13 - The God of Time is still struggling to close the rift though which the dopplegangers have come. He has requested that his brothers and sister assist in closing this hole, but without knowing why it opened, the task is proving difficult. Magic still remains faulty and hard to control, but the herdlands continue to be places of refuge for those who are fortunate enough to call these lands home.
ORANGEMOON cools off the lands with a a viscious force. Colder than normal, a sign of things to come during Frostfall, Helovia is bathed in a rich tropical lushness - albiet a cold one. The coastlines of the Dragon's Throat are pelted constantly by tidal waves, and the desert climate is humid but chilly. Ice begins to form early in the Aurora Basin leaving the winding trails slick and dangerous. The mists of the World's Edge coat everything in a glistening crystalline shine which encourages mould to grow everywhere. The Spectral Marsh is the only area which remains fertile, blissfully temperature and lush.

Character of the Month for
June, 2017
WEAVER, Corporal of the Aurora Basin, is a relatively recent addition to Helovia and has taken it by storm. Branded with the seal of Death on her chest, intrigue and interest follow both her past and present. Though she is assuredly beautiful, her sometimes sharp personality reveals that there is more to this uni-peg hybrid than meets the eye. Proving herself able on the battlefield in the Basin’s warrior ranks, we can’t wait to see her test her mettle against the looming Kaos happenings! Congratulations!

The journey takes quite the toll on you, so by the time you and Knox reach your destination you're ready for little more than sleep. "Where are we?" You ask as you turn your head in Knox's direction. Your ears tilt forward and you listen to the sound of him lowering his body to the ground and you follow suit, more than happy to finally be able to rest your weary bones.
He says your name and you turn your head toward him, blinking against the blurriness that leaves him as little more than a smudge of blackness against a canvas of brown and tan. "I'm here now.." You say softly, but you feel as if there is more that Knox wants to say, so your voice trails and you listen. Your hunch is proven correct when he says that he is beginning to remember the night he abandoned you. It makes you frown and your silver eyes fall to the ground.
You remember it all too well.
You don't want to.
You want to forget and pretend that it never happened, but you know its impossible.
You don't want to remember the way Dovev pretended to be Knox, how he professed love that was a lie, how he attacked you and left you blind in a place that you didn't know.
Knox speaks again and your ear tilts in his direction. He repeats your own words back to you and you sigh softly. "Yes." You answer honestly, because you still do think that Knox could have a family. "I do believe that you can have a family.." with someone... "...but it doesn't matter what I believe if you don't believe it yourself."

flashback:
You shake your head when the ancestor claims that all of the faces you see are Knox's because you know better... at least you think you do. These faces that flash before you might be vaguely familiar but you don't know them like you know Knox. You know the way his eyes light up with unspoken excitement and how they darken with anger, the way his ears fall when he's thinking, even the way his mouth moves when he speaks to you. You know his face. "Those faces belong to your ancestors." You finally say. "Not you. They're not your face. You're not Roanne. Or Janos. Or Anaan. Or Zekiah... or anyone else. You're Knox." But you don't think he'll listen to you and if he does you don't think he'll understand. He's already too far gone and it makes your heart ache for him in a way it never has before.
"Part of you, I guess." You agree as he speaks. "Part... not all of you..." You want so badly for him to understand that he is more than just his ancestors... at least to you he is. "Knox.." You say his name again, but he cuts you off claiming that no one can escape their history and that it is what comprises all of you.
...perhaps he is right.
You stare in silence for a moment, listening to the rain as it falls to the ground around you, feeling it as it pelted against your side and your back. "They make up your history ... you know their history..." You say quietly. "So shouldn't you learn from the mistakes that they've made in their past? Shouldn't you ... want to make your future better than the history that comprises you? So you can make the history of your future family better?"
