Ok I am now officially dieing of awesomeness ♥♥♥
And the stories are awesome too!

All of these horses remind me of geodes and I seriously believe they are...except for the copper one. That looks more like copper instead of a geode.

✿ they're all based on geodes

Wow Nightshade, those stories were bloody beautiful, I-I've got goosebumps. I really do.

And once they were finished, just like in every cycle, they would return to their birthplace, the very core of the universe itself... a place where thousands of their other siblings would return as well from their own world. There they would no longer be recognizable as their so precious forms. Instead, they would be nothing but stars in that sea of lights, stars with lots of stories to share from their travels and missions.

Stars that would fall back to that so lovely little planet when it was time for the guardians to rise again.[/i]

And this, children, was the tale of the Geode Guardians of the Universe. *closes thick old book*

Lovely job on the horses, they're all so beautiful. As you mentioned, they have other siblings. What if their siblings aren't all horses, maybe some are other species? I'm still totally happy with the horses, but another species around this theme at one point would be interesting.

That story gave me chills. Love your writing. c:

I absolutely agree! If you ever decide to change jobs, I think a writer/author would work very well for you! I'd love to read more things you write/have written someday!

Haha, I actually do hope/plan on publishing a book series one day, I love creating and writing stories ^^.

I'm really, really glad to see you all enjoyed the little story I made up for the litter. Like I said before, the first concept for these horses was of them being just geode inspired... however, as I worked on the Biomancer guardian I thought they could be a lot more interesting. I've always had an abnormally fertile imagination, you could say I wanted people to see the pets a little like I do most times when I design them, as something more than just a bunch of colorful pixels, you know? And when you read a little story behind a design, you tend to no longer see it as just another themed pet, but something much more special ^^.

I remember that when I was little I'd see geodes as some sort of "universe egg", specially those huge amethyst geodes. I mean, it's a boring chunk of rock that seems to hold an entire universe filled with stars inside them, it was so magical to me when I was a kid and it still is nowadays XD. And so I thought turning those geode horses into guardians was just appropriate, for while they clearly hold part of their own world close to them through their rocky shells, they also hold a little piece of the mysterious universe inside, just waiting for the day the guardian wakes up and is ready to crack open.

But well, enough babbling all over you XD. Like I said, I'm so happy you enjoyed this litter, specially since they were quite a handful to work on due to all the details. I guess I should try make more story-deep litters in the future ;3.

Oh, and regarding the geode types...

Aurakeeper: Opal Geode
Dreamcatcher: Amethyst Geode
Corewatcher: Blue Agate Geode

I think I said it earlier, but if you keep making stories for your horses, I'll hoard them all!
