An Introduction
The story of Bella Sara is set in North of North, a vast, magical continent not attached to any planet. It floats on a sea of light called Auroborus, which links North of North to other realms. Flying creatures who know the way to travel through Auroborus can come out in nearly any world they choose.

Above all, North of North is the ancestral homeland of all horses. Long ago, most magical horses belonged to one huge herd. Now these horses' descendants are scattered all across North of North, making homes in all sorts of wondrous places – underground oceans, floating sky-islands, immense seas of grass, and many more.

Every living creature in North of North has its own magical aura (a colorful glow that surrounds them). This connection between all living things is the real magic of North of North.

The Horses of North of North
"North of North is the ancestral home of all horses. Every horse can trace its bloodline back to North of North. Naturally, the horses of North of North are the best and brightest of their kind. Every horse in North of North has been touched by magic, and even the most normal-looking of horses has at least one small magical gift of their own. Sometimes, it takes a while for the horse to discover what it is.

Although their gifts and abilities vary, all horses in North of North share some common traits that differentiate them from regular horses. Firstly, their lifespans are much longer. They live at least as long as humans do, and many live for hundreds of years or even more. They can learn, remember, wonder, imagine and figure things out much like people.

Horses in North of North are intelligent enough to understand human speech, but they don't talk themselves. Instead, they use a magical ability called horse-sharing. This ability lets horses share mental pictures with people, horses and other animals. With this ability they can tell others what they are thinking and how they are feeling with a simple mental picture. Humans who have a bond with a particular horse can pick up the horse's emotions from these pictures. For horses, the pictures of horse-sharing are much clearer than words."

The Bella Sara franchise was created by Gitte Odder Brændgaard in 2006, and was intended to be an alternative to competitive trading card games such as Pokemon, or Yu-Gi-Oh. Catered towards girls, the cards combined a mythical world of magical horses with game play. The franchise would grow to be popular in both Scandinavia and the United States, and was published by Seattle-based game company Hidden City Entertainment. They also gained popularity worldwide, and received numerous awards such as the “National Parenting Center Seal of Approval” for 2009, and "Toy of the Year" and the “Seal of Excellence” from Creative Child Magazine for 2008 and 2009.

It was reported June 16, 2013 that the Bella Sara Company would be ceasing all operations. As of May 2019, the flash site is still up, but the store has been shut down.
