Athenril had been amongst the herds for a while now, noticing something strange. In the distance one proud stallion seemed to always watch- vanishing into the forests whenever she got close. He seemed to care, waiting quietly amongst the shadows. Taller than all her stallions, she was sure he was a fine specimen. Only he seemed smarter than she. None of her tricks & bribes worked. When she called to him, he never spoke back. When she wove spells to give chase, he seemed to glow slightly and her magic unravelled about her - until even her horseshoes fell to the earth, now just inert metal.<br/><br/>Sure that he was something more than any mere stallion, Athenril hatched a plan - a plan to catch their elusive watcher! Taking her time, she crafted new magics - ones that would hold their shape even against the fey winds. And then she gathered her herd. The riotous lot wouldn't cooperate - until she bullied and bit, pressing them together with neighs & heavy flanks. She understand, her mares wanted a man. So she had to behave like a stallion to gain their focus.<br/><br/>With her choir gathered, she set the stage. The long forest edge before their watchful Steed. And then she called out, commanding chase. But not of the stallion - oh no - this time she had her herd chase her, letting her new shoes open up until she was flying through the air! Leading her herd on a merry chase, singing her new song!<br/><br/><div align="center">Sung to: "Set it all free!"  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StMawdId4SE&amp;list=PL1eW1QVbDRo0vOffS4s0PlZJoikL7Yb0k) &amp; Karaoke Version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBP1L-vov4E)</div><br/><div align="center"><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: comic sans ms;"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>I followed my heart, after your fire-<br/>Got spurned, got broken down by desire!<br/>I tried, I tried to gallop but your dust in my eyes<br/>Left me blurry, blurry and blind!<br/>I picked my pride up off the ground, <br/>I lost all my shoes &amp; but that's fixed now,<br/>I got new power under my hooves, sticking to a plan!<br/>Sticking to the plan, for leaving you behind!<br/><br/>Hell, I can do anything,<br/>Hell, Cause I can do everything!<br/><br/>This is my kiss “Goodbye!”<br/>Stand back &amp; watch me fly!<br/>'Cause nothing's keeping me down, gonna floor it tonight!<br/>Come on and say “Watch her, Watch her watch her go!”<br/>This is my big “Hello!”<br/>'Cause I'm here, never stopping now!<br/>Can't you finally see, I'm not just some dream?<br/>When will I set you free, set me free, set us free!<br/>You can set us all free!<br/>(Oh oh oh)<br/>(Oh oh oh)<br/>(Oh oh oh)<br/><br/>I was a mare caught under your cloud!<br/>But my mane's gotta brighter shine brighter than your tail!<br/>And I will leap so high,<br/>Galloping so far<br/>Gonna hit, gonna hit, hit on you every night!<br/>Pay attention, this time!<br/>I will make you pay attention this time!<br/>This is my kiss “Goodbye”<br/>You can stand alone and watch me fly!<br/>'Cause nothing's holding me back,<br/>I'm gonna let myself soar,<br/>Come on and say “Watch her, Watch her watch her go!”<br/>This is my big “Hello!”<br/>'Cause I'm here, prancing all about!<br/>Can't you finally see, I'm not just some dream?<br/>When will I set you free- set me free, set us free!<br/>You can set us truly free!<br/>You set me truly free (Oh oh oh!)<br/>You set yourself truly free (Oh oh oh!)<br/>You set us truly free (Oh oh oh!)<br/><br/>This is my kiss “Goodbye”<br/>You can stand alone and watch me fly!<br/>'Cause nothing's holding me back,<br/>I'm gonna let myself soar,<br/>Come on and say “Watch her, Watch her watch her go!”<br/>This is my big “Hello!”<br/>'Cause I'm here, prancing all about you!<br/>Can't you finally see, I'm not just some dream?<br/>When will I set you free, set me free, set us free!<br/>You can set us truly free!<br/>You set me truly free (Oh oh oh!)<br/>You set yourself truly free (Oh oh oh!)<br/>You set us truly free (Oh oh oh!)<br/>You set us truly free!</strong></span></span></div>
