*Staus* Off to skin a Kelpie twisted
Step into your imagination.
Let your wings enter the skies.
Swim in the deepest depths.
Pound your hooves into the endless night.
We live to be free.
Our hearts beat as one.
The Earth is our mother.
True alligence is shown.
May our herds carry on.
When others have perished.
Our blood runs true.
and so forever shall be cherished.
Open your eyes
See us for what we are
Listen to my song
And you shall travel far.
~Those that reside in this Realm~

Temple Description
Upon approaching this massive structure it appears basically like any other temple woven in knotwork designs, and other intricate fixtures shimmering in silver, teals, and purples. There is a silver inset marble floor along with two willow trees ajoining beside each side of the temple. Everything leads toward two white silver doors with a crystal fixture upon each side.
As you pass through the main doors you scent something mystical about the structure. While yes you stand within a gorgeous ornamented room, it leads outw ard to something of a dream Realm. Statues of a Goddess are placed cin the four corners resembling a horse of different attributes such as wings and a horn. Passing through the final door there sits a fountain of a great horse being playing a celtian harp shining in silver. Around it lies a stone path set in moss leading off to the rest of the temple.
Stepping closer to this stature you notice you're not in a room anymore for there lies no boundries or restraints. Each path of polished stones leads off to a seperate area. Such as the ocean, the sky, the Eternal Meadow, Fiery Outskirts, and even a realm of dreaming.
Following past each area you lead into the final area of the temple where the Goddess of the horses resides. Always detailed in amethyst and aquamarine lined with siver her room is one of mystic, healing, and balance.

"Ixi, Ixi, you naughty God! Always so busy." Liastrianathe pouted, mourning the absence of Ixreshtial. However, it seemed that there were plenty of shiny things to be had elsewhere, so for the time being the flighty angelique flitted about, exploring her world. Chaos' world. She flapped her leathery wings, and glanced around her, wondering where she had wandered to this time. Ooooh! Was it a shrine? No... too big for that. She peered about, transporting herself around in front of the lovely, elegant building, zipping from one place to the next like a humming bird. "Hello~" she trilled, smiling in a charmingly naive way, searching for the owner of the pretty thing.

Inara found her way to the temple she felt it was her destiny to serve Epona loyaly. She felt as if she were the Kirin of the feng shui guardians. She was a bit odd, she was also very sparkly for some reason.

She sat in her glory with fingers stroking upon the silken strings creating a trill of silver and harmony with every note. Hair flowing purple silk into teal tresses she smiled contently simply playing with happiness and balance.
Wings folded in white velvet with a golven spiral to match. It had been so lonely here by herself.
Closing her eyes momentarily she sensed others in her temple causing the Goddess to arise out of her crystalline throne. Futtering her large wings now fully exposed she arrived at the Turning point fountain and waited for her guests to arrive.

"Ohh meeeee ohhhhh myyyy!!"

Liastrianathe glided over to the pretty goddess in the throne, and suppressed a giggle. Ooooh, she was a horse, too! What a fascinating, wonderful coincidence! Perhaps they would be able to compare notes. It was then that the angelique realized that she was not alone in the temple. Well, aside from the previously mentioned deity. Was that... a mortal? And she was a faehorse too? Lia blinked. Was it normal for such beings to congregate in one area? Oh, yes. She remembered now. Herds! That is what horses did. Normal horses. Maybe the mortal ones were like that.
