It's been a few years since the great Spiderwing's death and Nightwing's disappearance. The herd that Spiderwing had created has swelled to even larger numbers then imagined. The new Over-Stallion of Spider Herd is attempting to hold the herd together, but rising tensions within the herd may prove that endeavor to be futile. The herd is split two ways, those who believe that they should remain together, and those who believe they should split and populate the land of Western Anok with pegasi with like abilites and strengths. Will these quarrels end up splitting Spider Herd? Or will the new Over-Stallion and Lead Mare of Spider Herd succeed in keeping them together?

Rainflight:
She lowered her head, tearing up mouthfuls of grass as the afternoon sun beat down on her, her tail flicking lazily to keep the flies at bay.
Roserise:
He frowned and watched the sky, then turned to see Opalstar walking toward him. He grinned tentatively, and she grinned back.
(Back for a sec and saw this!)
Cliffwing: He arched his neck.
Oceanmoon: She trotted to her sister.
Hollyfeather:
She practiced her maneuvers in the air, her father's words ringing in her ears, 'You cannot fail...the herd must remain together.' Pinning her ears back, she continued her practice.
Oceanmoon: "Hey, sis!" She nickered and flew above Hollyfeather. She smiled playfully and flicked her tail, her large wings flapping.
Roserise:
He saw Rainflight and perked his ears. She looked lonely. He walked over. "Hey."
Hollyfeather:
She was broken out of her thoughts, "Oh! Hi, Oceanmoon!" She nickered.
Rainflight:
She lifted her head, smiling softly, "Hey, Roserise." She nickered with a smile.
Roserise:
He grinned. "What's up?"
Opalstar:
She flew up to join Hollyfeather and Oceanmoon.
Oceanmoon: "You ok? You look sad." She flew closer to her sister, "Is it because of dad?"
Rainflight:
She shrugged, "Nothing much..." She murmured, "Just thinking."
Hollyfeather:
She sighed, just giving a simple nod, "It was my fault..." She murmured, "I was on sentry duty, I should have seen that leopard before it got to close and dad had to do something about it..." She groaned.
Opalstar:
"No it wasn't," she interrupted Hollyfeather. "No one could have foreseen that. And yes, your father was a great over-stallion, but I think it's time for the herd to split."
Oceanmoon: "It WASN'T your fault. It's like you could do anything against a leopard." She realized how mean she sounded and looked at her sister, "Sorry." She sighed. She was only two, and her father was dead. He had died on her birthday, making the day terrible, like a curse. Her birthday was coming up soon, and she dreaded it. She glanced at Opalstar and frowned.
Hollyfeather:
"No!" She nickered, shocked, "I won't let my father's memory die out! We need to stick together!" She whinnied.
Opalstar:
Sho shook her head. "His memory will never die, but it's time to move on." (gtg)
(OOOOOOOOF bye :(
Oceanmoon:
She looked at her in shock. She curled her lip and glanced over at Stormheart.
Hollyfeather:
"We can't..." She murmured, "I promised him I'd keep the herd together..." She said sadly.
Stormheart:
He was ruffling his feathers, confused as to how to join the conversation.
Oceanmoon:
She glanced at her sister and sighed. "I'm just worried. And I miss him. A lot." She looked up at her older sister. (Do you want me to make Hollyfeather a mate or crush?)
Hmm....sure! I'm not sure she has one yet!!))
@Skysun Mate or crush?)
@Stormsun Crush!)
Opalstar:
"No offense, but how are you going to do that? You aren't the lead mare. What can you do? Whether you like it or not, it's going to happen." She swooped in a small circle.
Oceanmoon: She glared at Opalstar.
