Sense the beginning of time, mystical creatures have fascinated humans: fairies, dragons, elves, and my favorite, unicorns. Unicorns are the epitome of magic, but some may argue that Pegasus are the real magic in the mystical world of different creatures. Unicorns have more magical qualities then Pegasi. Unicorns come in many different shapes, colors, and sizes: black, pink, blue, gray, and my favorite white. The same is for Pegasi, though they seem to be more pedestrian. Their colors are always more dull. Unicorns receive magic from the horn that allows the color on their shiny coat to almost glow.

According to Angelo Codevilla, “Each culture is largely defined by the ways in which men and women within it come together to raise children, and each regime defines itself substantially by how it affects those ways… But every regime affects families by making the conditions in which they live” (Codevilla 169).
