Description Yea...Flower horse...

Actually, they are called Dergo ( Which means Flower in Zalrockian )

These are the horses of Zalrock. These creatures are also one of the smartest too. They are also sprinters, running up to 120 mph for three miles straight.

They are called flowers because they are. They live only on water and sunlight. Sometimes you can see a small herd or just afew in lakes or ponds, or even in shallow beach water, soaking in the water through their skin and tails.

When a make and female mates, the female carries them for two months. Then she births seeds. Yes, seeds. Much like an egg. A female can have up to five young. The seeds turn into a flower patch for another six months. And then, the largest flower blussoms, the baby Dergo inside.

Normaly the baby Dergo, or foal, markings and colorations match the coloring of the flower it comes from. Spiff neh?

They come in all different colors. And stand at 7-9 feet at the shoulder, or 18-20 hands at the head. Despite they're gentle nature..I wouldn't piss one off. They do have claws and even very sharp retractible fangs for defense. And are very portective of their young.

And last, these guys don't neh. They sound like whales. Each Dergo has his or her own tone. And if you stick abunch together, they can sound like a pod of whales. They love to sing, normaly during the morning, or just for joy. If you were to walk around Zalrock near a lake area and you heard a whale, it's a Dergo.

Heh. I'm done. I didn't mean for this to be so long....sorry....

O_O nicely done. Now that I know more about these guys I want to take one home with me (or leave one in my neighbors lake for a surprise.) I like the way you did the shading on the tail and in the eye.
