Raelia and Altius

The princess of Laventia had named the pony herself

It was named Altius after her grandfather,

The only one in her family to have shown her any measure of kindness

This pony was viewed by many as a mere pet,

But to Princess Raelia, it was much more

A treasured friend,

An eternal companion

The one she'd sob her sorrows to

When she couldn't take the scrutinization of her family members anymore

When upholding the royal name

And excelling beyond expectations

Became too much for her slender shoulders to bear

Raelia and Altius had been together since her early years

Quickly, they had become inseparable,

One of a kind

In the end, all they had was one another

The princess would find Altius,

Her missing pony,

No matter what it took

She would find him,

She would

Because if Raelia didn't,

What would she really have left?
