Beneath the rather freakish vision, Huo's neat handwriting:]

Appearances do not necessarily reflect character.

True colors make one wonder.

A thousand pardons for my ignorance, but what is a hurrok?

They're winged horses that eat meat. [She thinks twice about saying "of course."]

This is also a flying, meat-eating horse; but it's called a thestral, and it is very much alive.

Perhaps they are different breeds, as the guoxia and the yili are both breeds of the ordinary horse.

I suppose.

You're sure it doesn't have talons?

[getsome-sleep.livejournal.com]

Quite sure, though it has impressive fangs.
