Belaren grumbled in his sleep. Pawing at the ground with his golden hooves. A dream of ravens and shadows filled his mind. Belaren dreamt of ravens swooping down and trying to pick at his eyes, while shadows crept up behind him and scratched for him, but only got thin air as he ran through Tir'Baren. His golden horn was stained a dark crimson maroon blood from the ravens.
"Get away!" he cried rising and bucking trying to get the ravens to leave him be. Though the shadows and ravens did not, they only got closer, more black beasts swooping down from the dark purple sky, and more dark shadows creeping up from the brush.
"Away! You do not belong in Tir'Baren! This is our home!" he cried to the creatures.
The ravens cawed, and the shadows hissed as he backed against a large tree, his horn poised for any to attack him. That was when a huge shadow emerged from the forest beyond, and crept toward him. He neighed loudly, though knowing that no one could hear him, he screeched into the dark night.
"Belaren!" hissed the shadow,"Belaren!"
It was then the unicorn woke.
