Bruneau squinted against the sunlight as he hauled his massive form from the mouth of the Bunker, taking a deep breath of the fresh Onean air around him and his bright colored eyes scanning the landscape around him. Winter had just begun, and of course the Onean winter was harsh, but the cold was not really phasing him, the wind ruffling his tasseled tail and short mane.
The clouds hung heavily in the sky, and Bruneau gave a short snort. It would probably snow any hour by now. But the massive unicorn just allowed his huge feet to carry him onwards. He was truthfully a little lost in thought, having escaped the cluster and crowd of his fellow Vindicators, his family, for a peaceful moment in the cold. As much as he appreciated and loved the wonderful "herd" of Vindicators, the ones who took he and his father in when he was just a young colt, he enjoyed his alone time, or at least the time above the ground.
As he walked, he heard a few snorts and shouts of Cadets playing and romping in the cold, another solider carefully and kindly watching over them to be sure they wouldn't get into trouble. So he just kept walking, his mind empty and his demeanor calm. But his ears perked when he saw another heavyset figure ahead of him, a blue roan exactly two hands shorter than he. Jimmu.

Jimmu stared up at the mountain, lost in his thought. The winter's cold always gave him a bit of an ache, but nothing that held him back. He huffed and shook his head, his messy mane flopping over his Jimmu sighed. Every winter, when the mountain's snowcap was replenished, he always looked up at it, wondering why Kaia and Cascade had swept him up in that avalanche, why he had survived, and why he had been delivered to the Vindicators. He was happy here... The Cadets were quite energetic, after all. And he had made a few friends in the Bunker, too. But he still wondered... It had been twenty years since then, and he still wondered what all he had lost before that day... And this year, the thoughts were far more pressing than ever before. With the blockade this last autumn, he had nearly been captured... Because one of the War Forged Raiders knew his name. He wanted answers, and he wanted to know who that stallion was...
