Author's Note:

This was originally created to be a bookcover for Peter Beagle's story "The Last Unicorn". In that story, the unicorn is described as being very delicate and deer-like, completely unlike a horse. She searches for her kin, and meets her foe, the Red Bull. This is a quote from the point in the book where the Unicorn first meets the Red Bull:

"He was the color of blood, not the springing blood of the heart but the blood that stirs under an old wound that never really healed. A terrible light poured from him like sweat, and his roar started landslides flowing into one another. His horns were as pale as scars. For one moment the unicorn faced him, frozen as a wave about to break. Then the light of her horn went out, and she turned and fled."
