Storm also has been uneasy and has taken his mares and sons further south. When they meet they decide to take the restless two year olds, Lightning and Baringa, further to the south where they will have to fight for a place with the herds already there. Lightning and Baringa become competitors; Lightning always trying to steal Baringa's mares. Baringa saves Lightning three times and each time he knows he will have to fight Lightning again next spring! But Baringa becomes the acknowledged Silver Brumby of the South.

Baringa, grandson of the mighty Silver Brumby, was frantic as the rain fell in heavy sheets, changing the river into a raging torrent.

What happens when an ugly and mean iron grey stallion comes looking for what he has lost? Is Ilinga's and Wurring's love for each other enough for them to overcome the odds? What of the legend that say that before the moon and sun can be together, the light of sun must almost be extinguished?

Thowra, the magnificent silver stallion, is captivated by a beautiful filly dancing in the dawn light on the top of a gorge. He knew he must have her, but he would have to fight to make her his own.

Far below, a child's voice called: 'there's a tiny horse dancing on the pass.' the music grew louder again, and Choopa's blue and white legs and body waltzed above the Snowy River.
