Long ago, the lands of Hush were ruled over by humans. Three tribes ruled the lands, tribes of cruel men who enslaved horses and women.
The lands are comprised of four islands. There is Reshandi, the freelands, where everyone could come and go. The oter three islands were taken over by the tribes.
For awhile, the three tribes lived in peace. But, then, an action of greed took place.
The ruler of the northernmost island, now known as L'Ile des Guerrieurs, grew restless. He wanted more than his handful of land. he wanted to conquer Reshandi, and every land around it.
So, the North Tribe stormed Reshandi, chasing off members of the other tribes and keeping it for their own.
Little did they know that this would be the beginning of a desperate power struggle between all living things.
Soon, Uccello grew angry. In an attempt of rebellion, the Tribe captured the wife of the North tribe's king, asking their own king to impregnant her. Against her will, he did.
Seeing the King's angry reaction, the King of Uccello Tribe parised his people. He returned the wife of the King to the North Tribe. Word was that she was brutally slaughtered by the King himself. With a realization, Ucello repeated the action, kidnapping almost every sibngle woman of the North Island tribe. They gave each a child, and sent them back to their King, who killed them. Soon, the whole of the Northern Tribe was left as men.
When they realized this themselves, the North Tribe fled Hush altogether, running to find another place to dwell. In their struggle, a single stallion, Coup de Fusil, escaped. Forgetting about the beast, the men left by boat.
Overjoyed, The Uccello Tribe took over the North Island and all of Reshandi. In their greed, they broke the alliance they had formed with the Esmeralda, attempting to take their women, as well. Enraged by this, Esmeralda prepared for battle.
Soon, war swept over the land. Every woman was slaughtered, nearly every man. The survivors did not last long, soon perishing of starvation and dehydration.
Coup De Fusil, thinking he was the only one left, searched Reshandi, hoping to find a mare. Instead, he found two other brutes- Pietra Preziosa and Corvo Che Vola. The stallions formed a friendship, living in peace, until the discovery of Maria.
maria was the only mare left after the war. Upon finding her, Coup de Fusil immediately took her as his own. But, the others disagreed. A fight raged between the three, and in the end, the sire of Maria's foal was unknown.
Enraged, Maria declared to the three brutes that she wanted nothing to do with them. The impregnanted vix stalked off, going into hiding. Her foal, Pourra, was the first of the Loners.
The three brutes were enfuriated with eachother, continuously pointing the blame over loss of Maria. Eventually, they each withdrew to their own islands, hoping for the arrival of more.
One day, a shipwerck swept up against the beaches of Reshandi. MAres, stallions, even a few foals of all breeds fled the wreck. The humans had been slaughtered in a horrible sea storm, and about a hundred of the thousand horses they had been trandporting survived. Esmeralda made up with the loners, Pietra Preziosa apologizing to Maria for his sins against her. Maria accepted, and the two groups have gotton along rather well ever since.
But, both Coup de Fusil and Corvo Che Vola still held grudges, blaming Maria for their troubles. The two formed a sort of alliance, looking down upon Esmeralda and the Loners.
But, now, after years, the Loners and the Esmeralda have grown upset. They are fed up with being blamed, being put down. The time has come, and tension sweeps over the lands of Hush. A battle is bound to break out...
Any players wishing to play the parts of Maria, who is now rather elderly, Pourra, Coup de Fusil, or Corvo Che Vola should PM me.
