Seo wanted to try something new. Maybe get a new prospect, or ride other horses. He really loved Ballad with all his heart but his uncle found some breed with many poor neglected horses rescued, and In need of help and training.

"Seo-ah. I found a lot of rescue horses you might like to try to help." Song said, waving his phone around as Seo was mucking out Ballad's stall. He paused for a second, closing the door and settling the shovel down. He was handed the phone, and it was the Brumby Sport Horse page. Poor neglected horses, with bad owners from all around the world. It pained him to see the horses in such bad condition. The page his uncle opened up was of a 9-year-old Stallion. He was about 15.3 HH and a smokey black roan overo color.

"His name is Ralof, He came from a small town in the swampy region of the US, kept in a pasture with no shelter and it was constantly being flooded. Due to this, the stallion has swollen feet with abscesses. He was a pasture ornament. Never really messed with it. He remains fairly wild except for the occasional pat someone would give him over the fence. He has many scars on his back and flanks where debris such as branches or other items would be blown into his pasture.

Some other condition he's in is that he is lame in his back leg, but it might be treatable. He has Abscesses, and wounds on his back and flank. He's wild for the most part and an easily anxious stallion.

For the person who chooses to help him, His bad leg may need further examination. To treat his abscesses. Disinfect his wounds and keep them clean. Gain his trust. And give him extra training since he's barely ever been handled." He read off the site. After he finished, he clenched his jaw, disgusted that people could ever treat a horse like this.

"What do you think?"

"Yes. I'm going to meet him," he paused. "We have to make the trip as safe and comfortable for him, and we should prepare the small quarantine barn for him." Song nodded in agreement, then searched for flights for the trip there.

"There's a flight in two days there. Since there's no way to drive him here, we're going to have to find a way with the BSH association to transport him on a plane or something." They lived in Korea, so it was ways away from where the association was located. He was up for the challenge.


--------------------------------------------------------------

He arrived and drove to the association. Many other people there and many poor horses were finally being taken care of while they waited for someone to help them. And he saw him. The handsome stallion was somewhat skinny, but not as skinny as some of the other horses. He hadn't exactly been fed many nutrients, mostly eating whatever grass he could find in his worn-out pasture. But he was beautiful. His coat was dull, but had a gorgeous pattern. He felt pained at all of the horses and hoped they would go to good homes. He walked up to Ralof. Who slowly walked over with a little limp in his back leg and bobbed his head. The poor horse. He looked at Seo with wild but kind eyes. He nickered softly and was calm. He put his head down and Seo softly pet him carefully, not to spook him. This was the one. This was the horse. He paused, soothing the horse, and telling him to wait a moment as he ran to sign up. He returned and spent a few hours quietly sitting there, calming him down, speaking to him, relaxing.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Later, he had found out he got Ralof. He was overjoyed, and couldn't wait to bring him back to being a healthy, rideable, loved horse.
