Oh Deer

by Ralph
Swirling Cinnamon tells us about his tragic past and the decline of his tribe, linking it all to two things, his father, and the pony race.

Swirling Cinnamon tells us about his tragic past, linking it all to two things, his father, and the pony race. After ponies built long running train tracks through Whitetail Woods, the deers that have already established their home had to learn to compromise. Some were separated from their family by the tracks. Eventually, timber wolves found Cinnamon's village and wreaked havoc, taking the lives of thirty deer. Eventually, the remaining deer left the village at once, leaving it to rot. Some two decades later, and Cinnamon meets a new pony. A yellow, shy pegasus, and he gets a new perspective.
