all these voices in my head

The shadowed stallion followed Xurek, his powerful legs carrying him easily through the last of the willows and into the open valley. The sight before him was a stark contrast to the enclosed grove they had just left. The Emerald Valley stretched out wide, its lush green grasses swaying gently in the breeze, a river winding lazily through the center like a glistening ribbon. It was a place of life, abundant and vibrant, with the promise of sustenance for both prey and predator alike.

As Xurek charged ahead, Uruk's gaze followed the movement of the coyotes stalking the stranded doe. The sight stirred something deep within him - a mix of disdain for the scavengers and a sense of opportunity. This valley could be another vital piece in their plans, but only if they could secure it from those who would threaten their claim.. such as these very coyotes.

With a snort, Uruk surged forward, his hooves pounding the earth as he descended the slope with Xurek. The coyotes, despite their hesitation, pressed their attack, driven by hunger. Uruk's eyes narrowed as he saw one latch on to Xurek's leg, and with a bellow of fury, he charged toward the pack.

As one of the coyote's leaped up to attack, Uruk's heavy horn met it mid-air, impaling the creature with a swift, brutal motion. He flung it aside without breaking stide, his focus now on the second coyote clinging to Xurek. With precision, Uruk lowered his head and aimed a powerful blow right at the coyote, catching it off guard and sending it sprawling to the ground.

Sanding beside Xurek, Uruk positioned himself between the remaining coyotes and the terrified doe, his now red horn glinting in the dying sunlight as he challenged the pack with a menacing glare.
