Dusk and Dawn, a brand-new wild horse rpg...
Dawn. The beginning of a new day. The start of a new adventure.
Dusk. The end of the day. All good things must come to an end.
The two polarities of life. New and Old. Life and Death. But what of the between? After all, it's not the destination, it's the journey.
Not long ago, a terrible disaster fell upon the herds. A massive volcanic eruption occurred, nearly wiping out all life in the land. Ash covered all; the land was a black and grey wasteland. Only a handful of animals survived the disaster, surviving on the fringes of the world, eating sooty grass and drinking dirty water and whatever else they could find. Many died of starvation. Others were eaten by the numerous, starving predators whose aggression increased as prey grew scarce.
But with death, there is life.
Wandering through the wastelands, a small band of horses found a field of green grass. It was the most beautiful sight they had seen in a long time. They each split up and told as many horses as they could, leading whomever they could find to the fields. It wasn't long before hope replaced the despair that had once filled every horse's heart.
Dusk. Dawn.
Death. Life.
Despair. Hope.
