Introducing the new pony, Snowy

Snowy is a wise old pony. She keeps the herd in check, and that includes the unicorn. It’s no joke trying to control a unicorn, but nuff said about that*.

When she’s off duty, Snowy likes to cover herself in mud, but even when she’s sparkly clean she isn’t snowy white so her name is a bit of a mystery.

That bit of a mystery got Snowy interested in horses’ names, especially collective nouns. Although everyone calls them the herd, she sometimes uses a different name in her head, and calls them the haras, which is an old-fashioned name for a group of horses. When they pretend not to have “herd” what she says it “haras”es her quite a lot.
