[For Zachry O'Bailey's Dwellin]

[geekicorn]

He might spot the creature one cool and misty afternoon, walking from the big house to the yard, squelching across the damp grass littered with fallen leaves, a thing shaped like a horse, the color of a cloud at sundown. But horses aren't that color, are they? And they don't walk along clad in a slick yellow sheet, with a little red umbrella

Well, it's been almost a year since Zachry's been around the Mansion, and quite frankly, he hadn't had much in the way of odd happenings, that guy with the wings excepted.

So when he spots the critter, while he was corralling the goats back, he blinks, and he blinks hard.

"It ain't what it is, nay," he says aloud. "Can't be."

She'll come closer, then pauses, as she's just spied him. "Oh, hello there, are you the goat keeper of the Mansion?" the creature asks, friendly enough, though what critter looks like a horse with a single horn?

Not to mention PURPLE and TALKING.

".... yay," he replies, and crouches to look at it better.

"... you ain't real, nay, you gotsa be mindtrickery."

"Nope, I'm real. It seems there's lots of things I didn't think were real, either, till I came here," the thing says, coming closer and, typist willing, putting a gentle hoof on his arm. "I thought humans were just legendary creatures." And it has been speculated by some of the older fans that Equestria might be a post-human world.
