Welcome to the Fallen Oaks Farm Event
It is here that an illegal Euphorian Thoroughbred breeding operation was shut down by local authorities. All of the mares, stallions, and of age foals are in need of homes. There will also be some mares that still have their foals that need to be taken care of. Euphorian lovers from all over have come together to get homes for all of the animals. They've brought giant trailers and are ready and waiting to bring home a bunch of new faces. But before adopting, they must visit the trailer parking site. Welcome to Fallen Oaks Farm!

Arrival Story:Lacey lost her mother to starvation when she was in the illegal breeding program. She had separation issues, and had been down ever since, until she got to West Coast Equestrian Center. When she first arrived, she could tell just by looking out of the window of the horse trailer that this would be her forever home, where she would grow up happy, and wouldn't have to worry about where her next meal was coming from. She never saw a green pasture, or a clean river, or even a flower. She was overwhelmed by all the new smells and sights. It brought her true joy, and for that minute, she completely forgot about her mother's tragic death. When she was let out of the horse trailer, she was very eager to be let off of her lead rope and explore. Before that though, she was given a bath. At first, she was scared of the cold water that came out of the hose, as she didn't know what it was, but soon came to realize what was happening. She enjoyed the attention she was getting. After her bath, she was turned out into the pasture with a few other foals and their dams, under close supervision to make sure everything went okay. The foals playing with their dams caused a flashback of good memories Lacey had with her mother. Lacey approached a foal and her dam. The damn whinnied at Lacey, small and frail. She couldn't help but feel sympathy for the young foal. The mare's filly was also interested in Lacey, playfully nickering at her. Lacey was accepted by both the mare and her foal. Lacey had a new family to enjoy every moment of her life with, and go on walks, and graze with them. She had what she never had to begin with. Happiness. She knew this was what her mother would have wanted for her. She knew this was where she belonged.

Arrival Story: "Aw darling, everything is going to be okay I promise." Atlanta spoke softly to the concerned yearling. Her beautiful eyes locked with hers, and gave Atlanta hope that she could rehabilitate this filly and earn her trust. She knew once they both got back to ATB she could place Phoenix with Rome so she could learn boundaries and have a friend. She loaded the filly into the spacious trailer and started their journey back to Atlantic Thoroughbreds.
──────────────────────────────
"Hey Memphis! Can you please bring out Rome?" Atlanta hollered down the barn isle, knowing her brother was probably resting in the lazy area next to her office. She spotted the red hair jump up and grab a lead line and start down towards the pasture where they kept their Stallion. Although he was not gelded, Rome was very friendly with babies and loved to babysit. Atlanta knew he was the perfect candidate for Phoenix to be around and learn from.
A few moments pass and she spotted her brother and Rome come around the corner and into the barn. Romes ears suddenly perked up when he spotted Phoenix standing next to Atlanta and he let out a small knicker to the filly. Phoenix backed up a bit, unsure of the large stallion but did not bolt.
"Easy boy she's a bit scared." Atlanta said to Rome as he trotted down the isle, excitement filled his light brown eyes. He slowed his pace and walked up to the filly, he continued to knicker and examine the frail baby who seemed to not know what to do with him. After a bit of knickers being exchanged and a small whinny from Phoenix, Atlanta knew she would get along with Rome no problem. After-all he is a giant baby himself.
"Alright let's get this girl cleaned up and moved out to the small pasture with Rome." Atlanta led Phoenix towards the wash stalls but she stopped in her tracks. The filly looked back and Rome and let out a sad whinny, wanting him to come with. Atlanta chuckled and motioned for her brother to led the stallion behind them so Phoenix wouldn't be so anxious. Atlanta removed the mud soaked blanket from the filly and moved it to the side, knowing it would probably be thrown away and she would have to get her a new one once the winter time comes along. She turned on the hose and began gently washing Phoenix down, revealing her gorgeous coat that was hidden underneath the mud and soot. Rome stood by, making sure his new friend was at ease and comfortable, even offering encouraging knickers when Phoenix would become stiff and filled with anxiety.
──────────────────────────────
After a bit of a spa day for Phoenix, Atlanta and Memphis brought the two out into the small pasture and removed the lead lines and halters. Phoenix was unsure of where to go once she was in the pasture. She had never seen such tall, green grass before or the rolling valleys that appeared in front of her, she was used to a dark, damp stall filled with manure and little to no sunlight. Rome walked up to her and gave her a nudge on her side, motioning for her to walk forward and explore. She hung her head low, nibbling on the sweet, dewy grass and sniffing the clear air. She finally felt like maybe this could be home. A place where she would be happy and no longer scared.

Arrival Story: Driving down the road, I smiled knowing I had rescued a beautiful little filly who was safe in my trailer. We were almost back to the farm, where she would be living in a freshly painted new red barn. Filled with everything she would need, unlike that barn she used to be in. I was anxious to see how she would react to the new surroundings, it may take her some time to adjust. A few minutes passed and the farm was in view. I parked near the barn, and exited my truck. Walking back to the trailer, I heard a few anxious neighs. I slowly opened the trailer door, and saw Faith, cowering in the corner. She was scared, I did my best to comfort the little filly with soft murmurs and cooing. When she relaxed a little, I slowly walked towards her. She got a little jumpy and darted to the other corner in the trailer. I stopped and continued to try and calm her. It took quite a while, but she finally relaxed enough for me to grab her lead and walk her out of the trailer. Once out she sniffed the air, curious of the smells drifting in the wind. She glanced around and saw she was no longer at Fallen Oaks. She was with me, where she would be loved eternally and treated so much better. I slowly walked her to the barn, letting her take in the new surroundings. When we entered the barn, she saw the hay and filled water troughs. She wouldn't be thirsty or hungry anymore. She wouldn't be forced to live in a chilly broke down barn. I led her to her stall, warm bedding lay on the ground with water in her own trough and food in another. I led her inside, then exited the stall myself. I watched her adjust to her new home. A big pasture lay outside for her to roam filled with green grass she could graze. I watched as she settled in, drinking some water then laying down in the bedding. She seemed so much calmer then when we first met. After a while, her eyes started to get heavy, and she drifted into the world of slumber. (374)

Arrival Story:
The ride back to the stables was a nerve-wracking one, the cries of the small, weary filly in the back of the trailer not soothing me in the slightest. Even with my brother in the trailer trying to console her, her fear of any type of motion other than her own rendered the both of us worried and exhausted. Pulling into the driveaway, a few of the stablehands has rushed out, reassuring me that all preparations were finished and that her stable was ready for her.

Taking her out of the trailer was easy at best, but she was quite reluctant to go through the stable doors. Her legs were shaking, and her eyes blown wide with fear and confusion. I can only imagine what she must be thinking, what she must be feeling, having all of these new smells and sounds. As if the sirens and lights at Fallen Oaks weren't enough, the poor baby has been through so much in the past few hours, and all I wanted to do was give her all of the creature comforts I could.

With a few reassuring pets and soft words, we were able to coax her into entering her stall, the small baby immediately nestling herself into the warm bedding in the right corner. She was immediately fed and watered, and as the stablehands moved to care for our stallion, I locked her stall door and proceeded to finish some work in my office. It didn't take long for Lottie to start panicking again, her whinnies echoing down the stable halls. Sighing, I move from my chair to her stall door, opening it slowly and stepping inside. Sitting beside her, I scratched behind her ears and she began to calm down, nestling beside me. That night, I stayed with her, making sure she knew there were people there to protect her.

Judging this one a bit early! It was a tough decision but congrats!

This filly still has her foal coat! It has the potential to change drastically when she ages.
