*Stake a Claim*
« Thread Started on Jul 2, 2007, 9:43pm »

Twilight lit the steep, rocky outcropping. It seemed to become alight with fiery crystals as the mountain side twinkled like the barely revealed stars. The entire face of the mountain sparkled in the fading sun. It was beauty intertwined with the strong impression of a king sitting on a throne.

Amid this spectacular show, a figure drifted gracefully onto the outcropping. He was monstrous, that was certain. The ram stood proud and tall, his ivory coat standing out against the granite wall behind him. A light breeze ruffled his fur and made him appear even bigger. He had a large, broad chest and thick, muscular shoulders. He stood upon long, sturdy limbs that emphasized his huge, wide cloven daggers. Brawn seemed to be the key part of his make-up. He raised his snowy visage, displaying small, keen ears and a sharp muzzle. Two, golden horns gleamed in the sun's last rays, expressing their size and strength. Each came to a fine point as they curled around his dial. But most startling, was his eyes. One pool was of a deep, emerald color. The other was a worn, earthen brown.

The Alaskan ram studied the world around him, seemingly pleased in some way. His gaze scanned the surrounding, searching for any form of his kind. Particularly and males. Satisfied, the sinewy hessian let out a ferocious, challenging bellow, ringing over the rock walls and echoing clearly through the air. No response...

With practiced grace, the mascu tucked in his bulging crest, and bunched hard muscle. Like a spring, he jumped lightly from the cliff, flinging himself into the meadow a good twenty feet below. He landed smoothly, almost like his enemy... the cat. He recovered quickly from the long drop, and began to slink through the tall greenery. Once he had reached the center, the angelic hellion threw back his cranial and roared loudly. This roar was strong, defiant, sure, and resolute.... this was his domain and none would stop him.

Ruler:Heaven's Fury

Name of Realm: Jagged Mountainside

Identification of Land: This realm is the home of Heaven's Fury and his flock. Those who are in favor with this king are welcome here, travelers are warned, and challengers are threatened. This world is sparsely populated since it is high in the mountains, adding protection against predators and enemies. The rock here is a solid granite and roughly weathered. Random cliffs jut out from the mountain face provide a easy view of the surrounding area. The land is littered with scrub and tufts of grass and worn trails lace through the domain. But hidden amongst the boulders and stone are small meadows where the grass grows extremely tall and enormous oaks grow, providing shelter. Springs create small pools of warm water that keeps most of the meadows green during the winter while the rest of the land becomes cold and heartless. It is tough here, as the winters are frigid and the mountain side can be treacherous, yet it calls out to the soul of any who find its secret.
