Ayla & Umbra

About

Ayla

Jorvegian legend claims that a radiant magical horse used to circle the ring of light around the moon, watching over the people of Jorvik, until one day the being came to Earth to save their dear friend who had fallen into the fires of Garnok’s Fury. It is said that the Ayla that wander Jorvik are descendants from this mythical creature, still seeking to find their lost friend.

Solitary by nature, Ayla sticks to the untamed wilderness of Northern Jorvik and beyond, seeking the brilliant Northern Lights that sway across the sky in a multitude of blues, pinks, and purples – much like Ayla’s magical coat. Despite their shy demeanor, Ayla is fiercely protective of the people and animals they bond with, perhaps to a fault. Expect some jealousy in your stable if you decide to take home this steadfast beauty.

Like other magical horses in Jorvik, Ayla shows its true colors in wild places and will conceal its appearance in populated areas. Whether in its magical form or disguised to blend in with other horses, Ayla rides just like the Andalusians it shares ancestry with.

Umbra

Lunar cycles on Jorvik are an enigma, but on the special occasion that a new moon brings darkness to the land, the unlit night lures out a graceful horse known as Umbra. Stories say that a brooding magical horse used to skulk around the far side of the moon until, one day, the fires of Garnok’s Fury caught its curiosity. The mythical horse fell from the moon into the bubbling volcano, setting its mane ablaze. It is said that the Umbra that wander Jorvik are descendants of this mythical creature and that to this day they gaze longingly at the moon they can never return to.

Preferring to stick to the shadows of thick forest, Umbra finds its home in the thicket, favoring the faint glow of firefly light to guide their way through the woodland. Due to its fiery mane, Umbra has a body temperature much higher than other horses and has a hot temperament to match. They are always eager to break into a gallop, racing after the stars in the night sky.
