Upside.-.Down  Beyond the Fields of Asphodel,
where the souls wander in sorrow,
beyond the Acheron waters,
there I will wait for your return.
I walk away around shadows,
listening moans of pain and despair,
but the voices of thousand ghouls
will not ease your memory in my head.
And now that leaves fall around Earth,
a golden carpet will lead you to me.
And with the cold wind of the winter,
six pomegranate seeds do their duty.
Here, deep in the Underworld
you will find our ebony throne,
and your voice of promises and wishes
will bring life to the eternal dreamers.

.:Edited Regular Soquili:.
Colorist wanted: Dawniechan?
Name of horse: Persephone
Owner: Upside.-.Down
Gender: Female
Temper (one word for horse's personality): Forlorn
Breed: Myth
Description (eye color/hair color/hair style etc): She is fair and golden, a spring maiden vibrant with youth. Only in her starling blue eyes lies a touch of sadness, of despair.
Persephone is captured beautifully in this image, the sole inspiration of this concept. The softness, the sultry innocence... lovely! <3
Her base coat color should be that of her skin tone. I do NOT want a bland tan or "skintone" look- I would like an almost iridescent sheen to play upon an ivory base. Essentially, she should be fair and pale with undertones of peach, rose, and various shades of amber and brown.
Her coat should lean towards the browner/amber shades about her muzzle, on the tips of her ears, and her lower legs. Rosey peaches should be most vivid in her cheeks- a subtle blush, nothing too drastic.
Feel free to use the eyedropper tool on the image I provided, but increase the contrast/hue as you see fit so that she looks stunning! <3
Her mane and tail are also based upon the loose, wavy splendor of this image. Feel free to make the hairstyle your own, but I would you to make sure that whatever mane/tail you create follows these guidelines
1) Is elegant and flowy, fully and thick, with a subtle wave
2) Mane should fall just past her chest; Tail should almost drag on the ground.
3) A slight breeze, nothing too drastic, should give both movement.
As far as coloration goes, a lovely blond with almost-amber undertones like that in the image would do nicely. <3
Above her tail is a collection of flowers and leaves. It should be right where her rump meets tail.
Behind her left ear is another collection of flowers that should match the first but vary slightly. It shouldn't be too bulky, just large enough to be pretty without overwhelming her. (Could you make sure that it looks like it is propped in the mane, perhaps a few leaves laying over and behind the ear, so it doesn't look out of place? Maybe a few tendrils of mane could tumble across her neck?) Please use olive and emerald greens for the leaves, and for the flowers vibrant oranges and crimsons, precious pink, and pearly white. Again, the exact composition is up to you- feel free to be inspired! 8'D
Across her back is draped a swatch of green fabric. This should be based upon her dress . (You may also use the torso shot of that dress for inspiration.)
Ideally, the fabric should pool slightly upon the ground below, but also dangle a little, just like the dress does in that image. <3 The folds of that dress are just delicious!
It should NOT cover her rump- just her back.
Coloration matches that of the dress.
(If anything about the positioning or length looks weird, feel free to alter it until you're happy. <3)
About her neck is this necklace in gold. Shiny, vibrant gold please! It should wrap twice about her neck, with one loop hanging slightly below the other- like this.
Her eyes are a vibrant, smokey sky-blue. Again, refer to this image. x'D
I know that I have given you a lot of free reign with this concept... I really want her to be absolutely stunning, breath-takingly beautiful, and so I feel as though a certain about of artistic license must be given! ^_^

Default accessory color(s)?: No default accessories please. <3
Tag frame color: Up to the colorist. <3
Could you please do a pretty custom tag background for her as well? whee
You can chose to have the background complement her, or really make her stand out. I'd be happy with either! xD
Tag feather color: Up to the colorist. <3
Hair/clothing edits: Mane/Tail, flower clusters behind left ear and above tail, necklace, fabric draped across back. <3
Upside.-.Down  These people helped to make my quest a little less long, a little less hard.
I am indebted to them.
