" Tell us again!!" Faith beamed, prancing excitedly as Hayner yawned before them.

" I think everyone has had enough of my stories tonight, dear Faith." He smiled.

"PLEAASE!!! Don't you have any other ones?!" Bronzewing wined, flopping onto the grass and huffing stubbornly.

" Have I told you the legend of Bloodeye?" Hayner asked.

" Yes... and the legend of Hells herd... and the legend of the elemental four... AND the legend of the night hunter..." Faith rolled her eyes, lying down next to BW.

" How about the Legend of Lake Great?" He smirked. The foals looked up and him curiously, and shook their heads. "... No... that legend is too scary for young ones like you.." He smirked.

" NO! Tell us Hayner!!" BW pleaded. " We're brave enough!"

"... Alright then, if you are sure." He smiled, and looked up to the stars." In the heart of Destoria, there is Lake Great. Brimming with murky sea water, seaweeds and many rotting, fallen trees. It is the one place in Destoria where no blood may be shed, for it is unclaimed land where every full moon, the herds gather and discuss and trade news. But, in that deep, large loch there is yet another legendary figure. His name is the Each Uisge, and he is so horrific, it is said he is neither mare nor stallion, but a thing. Slimy green skin and webbed legs and neck, ears like dragons and eyes like as black as this very night sky. He lurks in the shallows, waiting, watching for his next unsuspecting victim to approach the waters edge. Whether it be horse, human, deer or bird. Then, like a crocodile, he LAUNCHES out of the water, and drags his victims to the deepest parts of the lake, play with their limps and ripped his dinner to shreds. He will devour every morsel, except the liver, which washes up on the shore by dawn.... And that, dear Faith and Bronzewing, is the legend of the Each Uisge."

" MUUUMMMEEEE!!!!!!!" Faith wailed, leaping from her place and galloped towards her dam, Faylee. Bronzewing soon behind, hiding under Bella's stomach and shivering in fear.

SORRY LONG STORY but I have been soooo excited about this new character!!! He is a legendary mythological creature that dwells in lochs and oceans in Scotland, and is considered the most fearsome of the water-dwelling beasts This is not what he looks like, he is actually part mane part horse part fish. But this is MY Each Uisge

PS: For those of you who may not have caught on yet- Destoria is NOT a nice place to live O.o its full of horses like Bloodeye, Each Uisge, Hell's herd and raveged by ocean storms and such. Not a nice island

Is he a kelpie? I've been reading up on them recently, because they're a similar creature to two characters in a story I'm writing, and that's the first thing that popped into my head when I saw this

He's very unique looking and a little scary, if I can say that. I wouldn't want to get too close, that's for sure!

Dakaree In reply to Zapz [2009-03-03 02:03:04 +0000 UTC]
