Talk about your entry: Can someone fix a funeral for me? I need it. My gosh. I didn't think I could improve my previous competition entries, but I guess I can in fact manage it :') The piece you are looking at now is the exactly picture I had in mind when I read the competition journal. I'm very happy it turned out exactly how I wanted! Incorporating greek gods in the entries was something I really liked, but sadly it was only in the other two classes, so I decided to do something small; the trident of Poseidon (on the right in the entry), as Tariya is a water Icogan and we're at the ocean!

Story (318 words)
After two years, Aisha finally decided it was time to enter a competition with Tariya again. Tar was curious where they would be going, but a bit grumpy as it had been hot the past few weeks. The pool warmed up too so Tariya had less oppertunities to cool down. She hated the drought. But when they reached Greece and she saw the beautiful ocean, Tariya turned her ears forward and whinnied happily.
The next day, Aisha met with Kaz. They had decided to go backpacking together first, as the competition wasn't starting for the next few days. Kaz had brought Khayrat with them, a beautiful arabian stallion who Tariya had already met once last winter. She didn't like him though, as with all horses she doesn't really know, and just ignored him. Every time Khayrat tried to go near Tariya, she'd turn away from him while making a very angry face. Poor Khay! But the sweetheart he is, he just kept trying, and after two days on the backpacking trip, Tariya stopped ignoring him. Khayrat was so happy he let out a whinny, but that might have been too much as Tariya imidiately turned angry again. Take it slow, Khay!
After having fun backpacking, the first competition day started. Aisha went to watch Kaz and Khayrat entering the halter and liberty classes, and was amazed by them, and all the other entrants as well. They all did amazing, making it very difficult for the judges! It was then time for Aisha and Tariya to give away a show themselves! Tar was excited, as she always is if there is water around, which made her a bit inattentive. She almost stepped on a crab which scared the crap (hehe) out of her. But Aisha quickly succeeded in getting Tariya focussed again. They stood still in the middle of the arena, Aisha bowed.. and then they started their kur.

(Why can i finally manage to write a "long" story, just when story length doesn't matter for this competition Just so you know, judges: I'm horrible at writing. Normally I can't get past 150 words lol)
