by ' earlier ' i meant the era from fury ' s order to , say , cavalieri . the ' later ' is the ones
in my era until now a favourite was furys order for his looks , a big powerful , muscled , imposing , intimidating , handsome chestnut with a white blaze who could finish a race off from the back as fast as any horse i have seen . 73 ' nz derby win was really something , he monstered them in the last 400m , overtook virtually the whole field .

a spokesman for the national crime agency said : “peter fury paid the full amount back to the court and complied with an order requiring him to submit all his financial details for nine years . ”
some wonderful derby winners in that time - fury ' s order ( a later cox plate winner ) , the great years of 1975 - 77 with balmerino , silver lad and the freakish uncle remus . . . and , more recently , bonecrusher and surfers paradise ( also cox plate winners ) . . .
brent thomson used the southern capital as his launching pad to ride around the globe . in 1975 ,
the babe
rode a horse called fury ' s order to win the ws cox plate . the championship event would soon become thomson ' s very own . the mighty filly surround , with peter cook aboard , won it the next year , but thomson returned to ride three in a row .
in order to celebrate the announcement of darksiders iii , fury released its very own collection : darksiders : fury’s collection – war and death , including darksiders warmastered , as well as darksiders ii deathinitive with one hell of a discount . the perfect collection for fans of the series and first - time players , who want to take on the role of war , horseman of the apocalypse , and death , the most legendary of ’em all .
azrael brought war to eden , thought to be destroyed , but in truth preserved by azrael . the angel explained that war would need to visit the tree of knowledge in order to obtain a way to defeat the destroyer . after battling a twisted mirror of himself , a creature born from the darkness of his battles , war proceeded alone to the tree . he received a revealing and terrible vision of things both past and yet to come .
great trainers based in hawera , and some super horses trained in hawera in the 70 ' s and 80 ' s , eg wally mcewan ,
deeks
, herb bergesen , fred ,
ginnah hart
, wiz moseley , owner trainers brian hayter , tom mathieson etc . great horses i was priveleged to see being trained in hawera - fury ' s order , copper belt , simon de montfort , kythera , kia maia , kia marea , cubacade , regal band , kerry lane , rich return , kartika , stylish pal , - the list goes on .
putting the earthcaller to use , the tormented gate removed itself from war ' s path and the horseman fought his way through the now opened library , meeting the phantom general guarding samael ' s prison in the scalding gallow . after an exchange of words , war killed the phantom general and freed samael . in return for his release , samael offered to help war get into the destroyer ' s spire , but warned that it was protected by demonic magic . in order to lower the barrier , samael needed the hearts of the chosen , hell ' s strongest warriors hand chosen by the destroyer himself to guard the approach to the tower . he told war to ask him no questions , as his reasons for helping the horseman were his own business .
the portal conveyed war to the black throne , inside the tower , where he discovered a surprising prisoner ; azrael , the angel of death . azrael ' s first reaction to war ' s presence was terror , remarking that the seventh seal had not been broken . once he learned war had not come with the intention of killing him , he asked war to free him . azrael explained that the destroyer had sent straga against him , imprisoned him and forced him to open the well of souls , allowing the destroyer to use its power . war then traversed across the tower , channeling the energy of the well from different regions of the tower back to azrael ' s prison in order to free the angel . as war freed him , azrael made a terrible confession : abaddon had recruited him for a plot to bring the apocalypse about early . abaddon believed that delaying the end war any longer would ensure the defeat of heaven , but the council was tying their hands by forcing the angels to honor the truce . abaddon ' s plan was to break six of the seven seals , leaving the seventh intact to prevent the horsemen from interfering . when the final battle began , the chosen of hell would gather to declare battle rights , at which point the hellguard would descend and slay the most powerful of the demons in one strike . azrael voiced fears that breaking the seals would destroy the kingdom of man and , even if victorious , would see them both punished by the council ; however , abaddon revealed his masterstroke - the seals would be reforged by a third conspirator : ulthane . when the council arrived to investigate , there would be no evidence of their plot ; they could claim the demons had attacked earth prematurely and heaven had brought hell to justice . however , the plan had collapsed with abaddon ' s death and the hellguard ' s defeat .

in the mid - to - late - ' 70s ,
the babe
turned the racing establishment in melbourne on its ear . the young new zealand whiz - kid rode into victoria and wrote himself into turf history .
there was family of man in 1977 , then so called a year later , but no one expected what was to take place in 1979 . a horse called dulcify turned on a show that still leaves the hairs on your neck standing to attention when you watch replays of the race .
dulcify was certainly the best ,
thomson , now the australian representative for new zealand bloodstock , said this week .
he won it by seven lengths . he ran a faster 600 metres than the sprinters ran in the moir stakes that day . he was an exceptional racehorse .
thomson has no doubt the cox plate is the southern hemisphere ' s ultimate test of a thoroughbred , for
it is a high - pressure race
.
it [ pressure ] is normally applied 800m from home ,
he said .
[ being ] any wider than two horses going round the bends , i maintain you can ' t win . you ' d like your horse going along nice and balanced . it is the case in any race , but crucial in this one . you peel out from the 800m and give them an unimpeded run to the final bend .
on saturday at moonee valley , it is on again and thomson is confident that with regal roller and miss potential in the race
there will be very genuine speed
. here is his report card on the runners :
grand armee . trainer : gai waterhouse . jockey : damien oliver . odds : $ 4 . 75 .
doncaster handicap winner who proved he could compete in melbourne when running a good race at caulfield last time . he is very well drawn , with damien oliver on board . he is going to have every possible chance . i can see damien , with the speed genuine , getting back to fifth on the fence . he is very patient , has great judgement of speed . he ' ll slip back a couple of places and make sure the horse is comfortable . i think he ' ll be right in the thick of things .
paolini . trainer : andreas wohler . jockey : eduardo pedroza . odds : $ 41 .
hard to get good guide on the german galloper over the last season . hasn ' t got winning form but connections pleased enough to bring him this far across the world . the trainer has said the horse produces his best off a fast pace . the man has trained a lot of big winners in his home country and done a lot of travelling . a query .
regal roller . trainer : clinton mcdonald . jockey : mark flaherty . odds : $ 13 .
has done everything right this preparation . entitled to have a crack at the race but i would have preferred miss potential not being in it - she ' ll be breathing down his neck . no doubt , he is the pace in the race . i ' m sure clinton would like mark to bowl along at his own leisure . i ' m sure he would like him to be able to give him a breather mid - race . he certainly wasn ' t stopping at the end of the toorak and i ' m prepared to say he ' ll look the winner at some stage .
fields of omagh . trainer : tony mcevoy . jockey : danny nikolic . odds : $ 15 .
last year ' s winner but has a question mark beside him . a year older , won a soft group race in adelaide the other day , but i ' m prepared to say he can ' t win it . i don ' t see him in the mix .
natural blitz . trainer : doug harrison . jockey : stephen baster . odds : $ 67 .
elvstroem . trainer : tony vasil . jockey : nash rawiller . odds : $ 4 . 40 .
has done nothing wrong at all this preparation . entitled to be the favourite , winning races such as the underwood , turnbull and caulfield cup . from what i ' ve read , tony said the horse pulled up well after last saturday ' s caulfield cup . he is a stallion with the right pedigree . drawn eight and nash will be very competitive , keen to slide across and sit in the middle of the field . it will be a perfect position - he ' ll have horses there taking him into the final quarter of the race .
starcraft . trainer : garry newham . jockey : glen boss . odds : $ 3 . 25 .
a while ago , i thought the cox plate was his race but i ' m not sure now . they said he ran great sectionals last start , but when the marble came up no . 1 [ barrier ] , connections might have cringed a bit . being on the fence , he is going to have no friends around him . riding tight within the rules , there will be no quarter . a big fellow , around the valley i ' m sure he would appreciate more room . at caulfield , raced with his head on the side . has to do everything 100per cent to win a cox plate . i ' m not saying he can ' t , but he cast doubts in my mind at caulfield . i have great respect for him but i ' m worried .
king ' s chapel . trainer : mark walker . jockey : darren beadman . odds : $ 21 .
distance doubts , for mine . you would have to say he has been in handy form but i don ' t see him running one or two .
delzao . trainer : greg kavanagh . jockey : steven king . odds : $ 34 .
been consistent , but i don ' t see him figuring in the finish .
elegant fashion . trainer : david hayes . jockey : gerald mosse . odds : $ 10 .
she has been mixing it with the best not only in hong kong but in international races . won the hong kong derby against colts , a very high - class mare . if david is happy with her , i wouldn ' t be surprised if she wins or runs very well . knows her way around the valley , having won the oaks here . world - class jockey who won ' t get lost around the valley . he rides around happy valley [ in hong kong ] every second week and it is far tighter than moonee valley .
our egyptian raine . trainer : grahame begg . jockey corey brown . odds : $ 21 .
great mare , but can ' t seen her getting the trip .
miss potential . trainer : bill borrie . jockey : reese jones . odds : $ 151 .
been in plenty of decent races but she doesn ' t win a cox plate .
savabeel . trainer : graeme rogerson . jockey : chris munce . odds : $ 9 .
if you listen to rogie , the horse is a superstar . looked pretty good beating own age at randwick but you ' ve got to go back to octagonal to find a three - year - old winner . i struggle to line up where he is at and you have to be right at the top of your game as a three - year - old to beat the older horses in a cox plate .

that makes the most sense to me . if hulk takes place before iron man 2 , then stark showing up at the end contradicts where we find his character in iron man 2 . hulk being between iron man 2 and thor also makes sense through the one shots aswell as coulson is still on the road while it takes place ( as we see in the consultant ) , but he leaves in iron man 2 and arrives in thor .
the incredible hulk , iron man 2 , thor then the very last scene in the first avenger .
going off the avenges prelude comic tpb and the official phase 1 timeline you ' ll see that the most ( chronologically speaking ) takes place in im2 first . then since tih jumps around the timeline a lot and because the duel in harlem is at the end of the official timeline you would place thor 2 second and tih last . that would make it look like this :
im2 , a funny thing happened . . . , thor , tih , the consultant

hi everyone had a minor hiccup today all sorted again . . . sorry for any inconvenience caused to anyone . . . cheers . . . . scooby .
i ' ve been looking for this race for ages too . i was 11 , and that performance took my breath away and is pretty much the reason i got interested in racing . although sunline coming along not long afterwards didn ' t hurt either .
i ' ve got a great quality photo somewhere of zonda in the parade ring with vinnie colgan on , just before they went out and won the derby .
grew up in hawera near to the racecourse and used to watch the races from turuturu school . earliest memories of race horses were having that grand standardbred johnny globe stabled across the road from our house while travelling through hawera , and watching the horses in the birdcage from my classroom at turuturu primary school ( before the area was all built out ) . spent 8 years and all my spare time ( outside my 40 hour a week job ) helping fred meynell , and was lucky enough to be able to keep my own horse there .
still very interested in horses and their breeding , just a shame racing has been in a slow downward spiral for thirty years .
just got to this baz , so here goesâ€¦â€¦all you named i saw , or nearly sawâ€¦â€¦ . and rode a few luckily , one in races , the others i wish . the place was special , we didn ' t realise it of course , you don ' t at that age . my first wage was 4 bucks and change a week , â€¦about 30c in tax the mean buggers tooâ€¦â€¦ . then after 6 months eureka , a wage rise to 7 bucks and change after i passed my probation .
our riding master at apprentice school was george lawson , he was also a jumps jock of repute , and he worked full time in the menswear store in hawera . we all needed a suit , apparently , and george was the ' go to man ' â€¦â€¦special discount etcâ€¦â€¦it cost over 2 months wagesâ€¦ . . but we were told it was mandatory .
going to the wrestling on monday nights was the best ! ! ! we would piss ouselves with excitement , and back in the whare we would practice all the moves and holdsâ€¦ . mario milano , haystack calhoun , larry o ' dea , to name a fewâ€¦â€¦and i remember when the miss newzealand show came to town , we all fell in love with miss manawatuâ€¦ . . and there was a good sort who sang super , she had a nz hit at the time , and came from woodville i recall , jf harris girl friendâ€¦â€¦ . . so no one dared venture there , whoa behold , as john ruled the roost from wally ' s .
one day i was returning home to hawera as i ' d been home on holidays , [ 1 week ] and the train stopped at palmyâ€¦ . . on gets ngh , no licence then , he was too young , he was going up to stay with wally and johnâ€¦â€¦ . . little were we to know that all these years later ngh was the living legend that he isâ€¦ . .
sorry if i ' ve gone on , hope you have indulged meâ€¦â€¦those were the days my friends , i just wish we knew then what we know now , a cliche , but a goody .
the trentham stakes win by showgate . wasn ' t a vintage field was it ? can anyone remember the record of who she beat ?
varnamo , master morgan , trochee and thomas mellay were pretty high class gallopers i would have thought .
also the fact that she had run 2nd in the wellington cup only days before only heightens her achievement .
also didnt she break down during the running of this trentham stakes and had to be led back to scale by bob skelton . ?
quite right . that was the race show gate broke down and was led back to the birdcage .
on three legs , she broke the race record , i think ( not sure if it was also the track record ) .
in the commentary , peter kelly says that show gate is taking her time getting to varnamo , the pacemaker .
her courage and versatility will see her remembered long after we are all gone .
. surprised an aussie wouldn ' t nominate vo rogue , had to be one of the most exciting horses to ever lead in australasian racing , took some big scalps . . . and got scalped by one of the great upsets dandy andy ! every dog has his day .
great description of a horse i can only just remember . isn ' t it amazing we can still remember horses that vividly after 40 years .
you have thrown out plenty clues as to your identity but i ' m blowed if i can figure it out .
initially i thought mr campbell then b thomson then bruce deacon however the clues have all negated that line . especially the tawa origins .
sounds like you have done well in aussie but the connection to apollo eleven maybe a red herring .
i know if i go to the turf register the name will come to me but thats cheating . there was a jockey l g ace domicilled in hawera but again i may be decades out .
a few horses that deserve being on baz ' s list are trial offer , tasman sea , grand win , stormee and egmont park . .
whatever happened to bruce deacon ? when i first started riding work for ' kg ' at takanini all those years back , deac and his family were in the tie - up stalls next door . they were such neat people . last i heard of bruce he was in queensland . . haven ' t heard much of david either for many years . . .
biff - those ' on the mat ' names were legends ! ! i remember two of those so clearly , mario milano , larry o ' dea . . . what about ' king curtis ' , ' the great mephisto ' , - with his infamous ' sleeper hold ' - and that crazy chinese guy whose name escapes me . . . they were great days before it all turned completely to custard and became the modern farce pro wrestling is today .

i ' m liking king raedwald more and more . i know he ' s not quite proven at the top level , but there ' s just something about him that really impresses me .
katie lee in to $ 10 after yesterday . interesting . she was hugely impressive , but i just don ' t know about the extra 400m . hope she can handle it though .
surprised to see monaco consul in to $ 5 after what i thought was a fairly ordinary effort in the international .
am really suprised to see katie lee being aimed at the derby , i really cannot see her getting the 2400m . she is way too brilliant for it . she has been up for a long long time and i really hope this season doesnt destroy one of the most exciting horses we have seen in a number of years .
when was the last time a filly won the derby ? i remember feeling gutted that nahayan didn ' t - if only she had run straight .
i used to fly up to auckland on boxing day morning each year , jane , and stay for a week . that would enable me to catch 4 days of racing at ellerslie ( including the derby and the auckland cup ) and two nights of action of the auckland cup meet at alexandra park ( which was just opposite the motel i ' d stay at ) . . .
did that for years ( well , in the years i was in nz for ) . . .
quality of the earlier half compared with the later half ? pretty bloody good to me . castletown , surfer ' s paradise , bonecrusher , the phantom chance plus the ones you mentioned were top notch in my mind . always difficult to compare different eras . but if you want to force an answer from me , i would say better .
i think we ' re actually batting for the same side , rockhead - it ' s just that my terminology was misleading .
boxing day is just not the same without the derby * sigh * . yes i have fond memories of christmas / new year hovering between ellerslie and greenlane too . don ' t do ' the gators ' these days .
some fantastic winners of the derby ( looking back ) balmerino , bone crusher to mention a couple . one ' more recent winner ' ( if i can say recent ) that sticks in my mind is so casual . who could forget his win ?
some fantastic winners of the derby ( looking back ) balmerino , bone crusher to mention a couple . one ' more recent winner ' ( if i can say recent ]
for freakish wins in a derby - have another look at zonda ' s ! ! that has to be one of the most amazing wins in a nz derby ever . .
before saturdays race this is what these horse were paying for the derby . . .
what they are paying now after that race is the price on the right hand side of the horse . . .
surprised to see imabayboy at such a big price . what was wrong with his win yesterday ? it looked to me like he loved the step up to 2100m .
i ' d have him ahead of the likes of ballybit and handsome zulu .
no question prop , the first half has it by the length of the straight .
i recall seeing uncle remus win in 1977 , the whole of the old stand stood and applauded as he shot clear at the top of the straight , yes that far out , now that ' s racing for you .
yes lloyd , zonda was probably the most awesome win in recent times . as i recall the horse made a dazzling mid race move , then sprinted clear at the top of the straight to win untested by 4 3 / 4 lengths . if you had seen the way he won the avondale guineas , you were always confident he was going to do that in the derby . not that it has any relevance , but got told back in july of that year , that zonda would win the derby
i agree jane it ' s just note quite the same on boxing day . they say it gives a chance for the 3 year olds to mature a bit more so you get horses that would not have run an opportunity by running in march . but look at the 4 winners since xcellent in 2004 , hardly vintage stuff .
i believe the 2400 will find zarzuela out , which basically hands the derby to corporal jones .
yes , from the ' industry ' point of view march is a good idea . i will remember
it will certainly be interesting to see if zarzuela will stay out the 2400 . i think i heard that coporal jones is going to transfer to hong kong - is that correct . i would imagine the connections are expecting a good performance from him .
i have not made up my mind yet , usually i do when i see them in the parade ring . something usually stands out .
yes lloyd , i was on track and zonda ' s performance was memorable too . so casual still holds the track record for the distance . these things are not easy to forget .
i am also surprised to see imabayboy at the odds he is at . back in september i inquired if anyone thought he may get over ground based on his breeding as i really like him on ' type ' and thought he might be a good fixed odds bet .
as the winner of 5 / 14 , a horse who handles all ground and has 1 win and 1 place record on the course i am really surprised the tab are leaving him out where he is .
he was slightly green on saturday but did settle reasonably well . i am hoping he can sit just off the pace and unleash that burst of speed he uses to put a break on the opposition . he stuck to his task really well and got to the line well enough to suggest the extra 300m might not bother him .
i see his time was very similar both overall and last 600m to zarzuela so she might be all out to pick him if he sneaks a break . i suggest she may have more traffic problems than him too so i can ' t see the reason for such a huge difference in the odds on offer ( think i might have some more at the 30 ' s )
it will be interesting how he ends up going but win lose or draw if he was mine i would be very keen to set him for the cox plate - i think the track and distance would be just perfect for him .
the best thing about his chances is although i am convinced he is really at his best on hard ground , should it rain on the day , he will handle it wet but many others may not be so well suited .
yeah mate - i ' ll never forget that run ! just mind - boggling how superior he was that year . took off at the 800m as you say , looped the field then ran away and hid in the straight !
as for zarzuela : breeding ' s a funny old game hesi as i ' m sure you know . for every rule there ' s an exception . i have found that you must still use some observation of the individual in your assumptions : their physique [ who they look like on type ] and how they run .
pentire , being a current example of a sire which throws both extremely fast horses as well as melbourne cup prospects . that ' s why if you ' re looking at a pentire you can ' t assume he ' s either ; you have to look at his physique and observe his style of racing and where his abilities lie . is he / she a sprinter or a stayer ?
as i have said in the other post , i have observed zarzuela and think she looks a real staying zabeel type with a killer dose of class and ability to sprint hard at the close of her races . i certainly haven ' t seen any obvious indicators to date that she has reached her maximum distance .
in contrast , katie lee has on a couple of occasions when hitting the front too early , started swishing her tail and showing obvious signs she ' s ' running on empty . ' this makes me doubt her ability to run out a hard - run 2400m . to her credit she won last time in an incredibly courageous display .
in conclusion i guess all i ' m saying is , their breeding alone is not sufficient to make a decision on these two : both of us could well be proven wrong , as both fillies are extremely talented and courageous .
breeding ' s a funny old game hesi as i ' m sure you know .
super 14 2010 is an ideal example , ha . breeding ( well , size ) doesn ' t count for anything there , too . . .
i ' d be quite happy if zarzuela / katie lee ran the quinella . mainly because they look like neither would get sold overseas , and both would likely race in nz several more times as well as trying for aus gr1 .
messrs paykel and hogan don ' t need the money , so it ' s all about kudos and building the breed .
whereas corporal jones is off to hong kong , where he will get some silly new name .

war is the main protagonist of darksiders . he is the youngest of the four horsemen of the apocalypse and a nephilim . framed by abaddon for starting the apocalypse too soon , war was wrongly imprisoned by the charred council for over one hundred years . after being released he journeyed to the remains of earth to find justice and clear his name .
the horseman war has charged into countless battles astride his spectral steed ruin , leaving trail of blood and bones in his wake . his eyes and hair are as white as the chill he casts on angels and demons alike , for the fury of his massive sword is unmatched in combat . as unyielding as time itself , war is both honorable and savage . — official description
while not much is known about war ' s past , it is established that he is feared by both angels and demons , and it is hinted that he shares unpleasant histories with many .
though once amongst the nephilim as they burned worlds under absalom , war swore loyalty to the charred council with his three siblings in the name of preserving the balance .
before they could fully take up their mantles as the four horseman , war and his siblings were sent to the far fields and the mysterious being known only as the horsemaster . the horsemaster demanded that they discard their weapons as the ancient beasts they sought to tame would bow only to their will . war proposed a wager as to who would tame their horse first . fury and strife proceeded to needle war about his tendency to boast , but the horsemaster criticized them for bickering like children . death , silent during the exchange , charged into the stampeding horses without a backward glance . he soon grabbed ahold of one horse and mounted it . the nephilim gained control of it and directed it back to the horsemaster and his siblings , where he named it despair as its appearance changed to bone and pale dead flesh to reflect its master . the red rider presumably tamed ruin shortly thereafter .
the four newly named horsemen were sent to destroy their own kind at eden , which the nephilim under absalom were attempting to conquer . war joined his brothers and sister in battle and together they brought about the annihilation of all the nephilim save themselves .
war was ordered by the charred council to go to heaven to destroy a weapon designed to kill only demons called the sacrament bomb , a weapon created under abaddon ' s orders . he used his position as the council ' s enforcer to enter the white city under a peaceful pretense . in the city , war traveled to the building his objective was set in and used a statue as a battering ram to break his way in . he then proceeded to search the structure floor by floor by blasting through the floors with a redemption cannon he collected from one of his victims and using ammo clips as makeshift explosive devices , slaughtering all in his path . the last angel war came across in the room with the sacrament bomb happened to be uriel , who at the time was just out of adolescence . amused by her inexperience and impressed by her determination , war hit her with the flat of his blade and knocked her unconscious , remarking that she should challenge him again in time .
shortly after his return from his mission in the white city , war was called before the council along with the other horsemen to hear death ' s explanation of the grand abominations , ancient nephilim weapons of terrible power created from the living flesh of the ravaiim , the inhabitants of the very first world the nephilim destroyed in their crusade under absalom . the charred council assigned all four of the horseman to stopping whoever was attempting to access the abomination vault , but shortly after leaving the council ' s presence , death ordered the younger three horsemen to stay behind and meant to undertake the task alone . war , fury , and strife protested , strife even pulled one of his guns on the eldest nephilim , but death was unmoved . fury eventually chose to honor death ' s wishes , strife stayed behind because he was bitter over how the elder horseman had shamed him after he drew his weapon , but war chose to follow death whether he approved or not .
war went to the white city , where he knew death intended to research the rogue maker belisatra . he entered the realm near the argent spire itself and , upon realizing that his brother had yet to arrive , went out into the city to look for him . when the horseman found his brother , he was being attacked by an angel assassin using an old nephilim sword called affliction . war attacked the angel before he had the chance to further assault death and the angel , unwilling to face two horsemen at once , retreated . war ' s entrance to the white city had not gone unnoticed , however , especially given the circumstances of his last visit . a force of angels including uriel lead by abaddon himself soon tracked the two horsemen down . a standoff ensued , but abaddon relented grudgingly after death threatened retaliation from the charred council . the duo then made their way to the argent spire , death chastising war ' s disobedience and lack of tact as they went .
azrael was waiting for them when they arrived and dispatched his scribes to scour the archives of the argent spire for any mention of belisatra . war paced restlessly while his brother provided an edited account of the abominations and the abomination vault to the angel of death . soon enough azrael was able to give them all the angels knew of the rogue maker . belisatra had once been an apprentice to a near legendary maker named gulbannan . gulbannan had been murdered some time ago , but he had fallen out of favor with his fellow makers long before when he chose the demon lilith as a paramour . the horsemen determined that the demon was their best and only link to belisatra and set out for her lair .
after arriving in lilith ' s domain , death forced war to remain in the hall while he confronted the demon alone . war argued vehemently , but death could not be swayed . the elder horseman managed to cajole the information he wanted out of lilith , discovering that it had been belisatra rather than lilith that murdered gulbannan when he had grown repentant and was planning on revealing how much he had taught lilith to the other makers , and that she had been the demon ' s servant until recently when she joined forces with an angel named hadrimon . the horsemen surmised that hadrimon had been the assassin that had attacked death in the white city . lilith also gave death the location of a laboratory she had used long ago hidden in gulbannan ' s domain , which they chose as their next destination .
when the nephilim arrived at the laboratory , death attempted to use a storm of bones to break through the hidden stone door but the attack lacked the brute force necessary , the storm being meant for ripping flesh from bone rather than stone . war then tried his hand by simply ramming the door astride ruin using all the strength at his command and met with greater success . once inside , they found hadrimon and belisatra waiting for them , having been alerted by war ' s cacophonous assault . the fight had hardly begun , however , when both sides were surprised by the arrival of demonic mercenaries . the horseman dealt with the demons handily , but hadrimon and belisatra slipped away in the confusion . a search of the lab revealed that they had recovered one of the grand abominations and death found an all but dead abomination named mortis . when war ' s brother put on the shield abomination , he was caught off guard by its prying telepathic abilities and it took the knowledge of how to awaken the abominations from him to hadrimon . the grand abominations needed the blood of the ravaiim to awaken and with that in mind death led his brother to the greatest source of ravaiim blood remaining , the ravaiim homeworld where most of them had been killed .


it is found only in corsica and sardinia in the mediterranean sea .

a medium-sized butterfly with a wingspan of 72 – 76 millimetres ( 2.8 – 3.0 in ) , papilio hospiton is a short black-and-yellow swallowtail with short tails .

the butterfly has blue and red markings .

sexes are alike .

papilio hospiton is similar to papilio machaon , but the wings are more rounded , and the hindwing is provided with a short tooth instead of a tail .

the black colour is more extended and more densely powdered with yellow than in p. machaon .

the caterpillar is green , striped with black and dotted with small yellowish-red punctures , the black colour being more extended than in the larva of p. machaon .

chrysalis green , the abdominal tubercles more prominent than in p. machaon .

the corsican swallowtail inhabits mountainous regions at 400 – 1,500 metres ( 1,300 – 4,900 ft ) above sea level on the islands of corsica and sardinia .

the food plants are from the family umbelliferae , and include fennel ( foeniculum vulgare ) , giant fennel ( ferula communis ) , corsican rue ( ruta corsica ) and peucedanum paniculatum though some of these records are disputed .

papilio hospiton is bivoltine with broods in may and august .

habitat destruction and disappearance of food plants as well as excessive collecting are the principal threats to the corsican swallowtail .

hints on determination : papilio hospiton can be determinated by its shorter tails , broader black coloration and smaller orange spots . the similar papilio machaon is rarer there and occurs more near the coasts .
papilio hospiton , the corsican swallowtail , is a species of butterfly in the family papilionidae . content licensed under creative commons attribution . source : urltoken
) . in nature a cross - breeding with swallowtail ( papilio machaon ) is possible .
remarks : papilio hospiton is endemic to corsica and sardinia , and occurs there especially in middle mountain ranges from 400 to 1500m asl ( rarely lower or higher ) . from the fact that not too seldom hybridization with papilio machaon occurs you can suggest a very close relationship between the two taxa , as well as from the habitual similarity .
endangerment factors : papilio hospiton is so far not under serious threat thanks to the often well - preserved nature in sardinia . local risk factors can both be overgrazing and also too strong tree and bush encroachment in the habitats . the habitats must be preserved also in the future !
. the first description was in 1839 by géné . with a wingspan of 6 . 0 – 7 . 0 cm the corsican swallowtail is one of the largest butterflies from europe . it is a member of the family papilionidae . the butterfly is yellow and black . hind wings have short tails . papilio hospiton is an endemical species of sardinia and corsica and very rare .
the corsican swallowtail is endemic to the mediterranean islands of sardinia and corsica . it occurs on open , rocky slopes where larval foodplants in the family apiaceae are abundant ( aubert et al . 1996 ) . many hostplants are poisonous to livestock and are therefore subject to eradication efforts through controlled burns ( manil & diringer 2003 ) . conversion of pastureland for recreational and economic developments further reduces the habitat for this species ( aubert et al . 1996 ) . due to its restricted range and sensitivity to changes in land use , papilio hospiton was included in the list of endangered species issued by the washington convention ( cites 1973 ) .
habitat : papilio hospiton inhabits mostly sunny , semi - open to open slopes : roadsides , rocky , often bushy slopes , small quarries , mostly woody plants rich pastures , clear places in very loose scrub and oak forest and embankments . the caterpillars are found mostly on medium - sized , partly also larger , but not flowering perennials of ferula communis , which often grow under very warm conditions on rock , gravel or open ground . christian siegel ( hohenems ) told me of numerous caterpillar observations on very small , stunted plants with few leaves ( sardinia ) , while my own observations succeeded on at least medium - sized herbs . it thus seems to be present a certain plasticity in oviposition behaviour , but a clear preference for microclimatically beneficiary spots is unmistakable .
life cycle : the pupa hibernates . the moths usually fly in a single generation from mid or late march to late june ( rarely up to early august ) . the literature reports a very partial second generation . in the second half of may 2012 ( e . g . 17 . may , 21 . may ) i observed numerous eggs and caterpillars of all ages and often very worn butterflies in sardinia in altitudes from 800 to 1100m above sea level ( gennargentu ) . after a good portion of the larvae was already fully - grown and i also observed feeding traces of already pupated larvae , there must have flown many adults already in early and mid - april or even earlier . the butterflies are usually observed only briefly as they strive in a restless , fast flight over the terrain . occasionally they can be watched when visiting flowers or something more common when hilltopping on terrain markings for mating arrangement ) , where several males often arrive . papilio hospiton is a good flyer and roams as papilio machaon far . the eggs are laid singly on the leaves of the host plant ( similar oviposition behaviour as p . machaon ) . pupation takes probably place on stones , rocks , wood and stems .

justification : in france the area of occupancy ( aoo ) is estimated between 500 and 1 , 000 km 2 and habitat quality is in decline because of changing pastoralism . fire is a strong driver to open up the habitat again . in italy the species is fluctuating ( though not more than ten - fold ) , but still widely distributed and with no signs of a long term decline . the overall aoo is not much above 2 , 000 km 2 ( and is under 3 , 000 km 2 ) . however , as the fluctuations are not larger than ten - fold , the species is regarded as least concern . this assessment is based solely on the expert opinions of the authors .
this species only occurs on corsica and sardinia between 400 and 1 , 500 m asl . this is a mediterranean and european endemic species .
the corsican swallowtail is a butterfly of open , grassy slopes , often with some scattered rocks and bushes and of slopes with low - growing scrub . just as the swallowtail ,
, these butterflies show hill - topping behaviour , the males assembling on hilltops or other prominent features in the landscape , waiting for the females to arrive . in corsica , they are found on three different foodplants , giant fennel (
, different populations being strictly bound to one type of foodplant . however , in sardinia , the caterpillars are only found on giant fennel (
) . the corsican swallowtail has one generation a year and hibernates in the pupal stage . on corsica reported to do well after forest fires . habitats : heath and scrub ( 16 % ) , sclerophyllous scrub ( 16 % ) , phrygana ( 16 % ) , dry calcareous grasslands and steppes ( 16 % ) , dry siliceous grasslands ( 16 % ) , alpine and subalpine grasslands ( 16 % ) .
all butterflies are collected to some extent , but only for the extremely rare species it can be a problem and the trade in europe is generally at a low level compared to other continents . there is no specific trade information for this species .
in france it is reported that habitat quality is in decline because of changing pastoralism . fire can open up the habitat again .
the species is listed on the habitats directive annexes 2 and 4 , bern convention annex 2 and cites appendix i . this species occurs in a number of protected areas across its range . no specific conservation actions are needed . in france and italy , not all populations are in natura 2000 areas .

host plants : the caterpillar lives primarily on ferula communis ( umbelliferae ) . rarely evidently ruta corsica ( rutaceae ) and related species are also used .
the forewings are black and have some small yellow spots at the margin . there is a chain of big yellow spots in the middle of the wing . on the wing leading edge there are three yellow spots . the dark zone nearby the body is powdered by yellow scales . the underside is a copy of upside , but there are some differences . all yellow areas are broader than upside .
the hind wings are yellow and have short tails in black . the margin is a bit ridged . there is a big dark area going backwards with some little blue spots . at the back there are a red eye and a chain of little yellow spots . there is a little dark zone around the body . the underside is yellow with black veins . there is no dark area , but the dark area from upside shows through the wing . the blue and yellow spots and the red eye are also there . some of the blue spots have red eyeshadows .
the first description of this butterfly was in 1839 by géné . there are no subspecies .
