Hello Marwari. My name is Aleura. (Ah Loo Ruh). My name means a walk in the garden or more appropriately a walk behind the embattlement or battlefield. My story is a short one.
I was bred, born and raised to be a battle horse on my own world Mitzalia. It's a lovely planet and very colorful. I'm high spirited and have great endurance. Like many varieties of war horses, I resemble what the Earth people call a Friesian. However, my coloration is called "bow" (Dark and mysterious) and is relatively rare even on Mitzalia. As part of my becoming a battle mount, my owner has had our wizard issue me a special power, so when necessary, a single stomp of my front hooves brings forth fire and sparks. (Magic.) My handler Astin was a perfect owner and cared for me very much. Astin has pierced my ear with 2 rings (Punk) for displaying honor and victory on the battlefield. I also have a nostril piercing which was done when I became a battle horse officially. I also have this obnoxiously thick tail that he has to keep under a wrap. At least he puts a nice silver chain around it, I kind of like how it looks. I also have a silver chain on the same type of red wrap on my right rear leg which I earned from my king when I became 2 years old and ready for training. My Astin's knight insignia is a single yellow star, so my helm and battlefield armor carry this insignia.
As is usual in my kingdom, there was a call to arms rather suddenly. Since I was well trained, my wonderful owner chose me first. He only hand a chance to throw on my bridle and chest shield and had to quickly mount me bareback because the enemy had reached the front of the castle. He was not even in armor. It all happened so suddenly. We were battling another war horse and his knight when Astin was struck down by a battlefield wizard from behind. All I remember after that was that I did as I was trained and stood where he fell. I think we entirely lost the battle but my memory still fails me. Some time later the apparent winning wizard came upon us in the battlefield. "Such honor" exclaimed the wizard. "One so honorable deserves a reward for their loyalty." I remember little after this other than his upraised hands and soon after lots and lots of very beautiful stars and shapes. (Aurora) The next thing I knew here I was. I'm told this place is called Earth and that I am a very unusual color. I have been hiding simply because I do not know why I am so different than these other terrestrial beings. For one thing, my color is so unusual I stick out like a sore thumb. Second, I do not know anything about this world and I am getting very hungry. I'll have to find food soon. I will continue to hide near where I came to this planet until I know what else to do. My guess is that the wizard brought me to a place he felt I would be safe.
That about sums up my life up til now. I hope the person I find will be like my Astin, I loved him dearly and will miss him. I hope to some day return to Mitzalia but I know it will take a great magician and apparently this "Earth" has very few magicians let alone wizards.
