You are a guard hired to protect the eleventh Treacle's-Trading Company Trade Caravan on it's journey along the long, treacherous expanse of highway from the town of Tortera to Port Callibu, an infamous passageway that has come to be known as Tirek's tail. You can expect attacks from bandits looking to steal your goods, wild animals looking to make you their next meal, and rival companies looking to eliminate the competition with extreme prejudice.
Your journey begins in the staging area in Tortera where all the merchant's wagons gather to prepare for the long journey ahead. You have been assigned to the Chair's Wares section of the caravan, where the merchants of miscellaneous merchandise can be found. The Caravan is almost ready to head out; get your exploring done while you can.

Alright lets talk to the pathfinder and see what are his expections of this trail today? How is the sun by the way? How about my companions? Are they skittish or anything?

The pathfinder? You're not of a high enough rank to report to the pathfinder. You report to the guy who reports to the guy who reports to the guy who reports to the pathfinder. You already have your orders; stick with your section of wagons, and don't let anything get close to them.
The sun? It's bright and warm, with hardly a cloud in the sky. Today's as good a day as any for traveling.
Your fellow guards? They mostly keep to themselves; they're a gruff sort like that. The merchants are quite a bit more chatty, and seem to be in a good mood. After all, if they make it to the end, they'll make a fortune. There any particular wagons you wish to check out? Anything you're looking for?

Ah, I need rations and my own set of water and sleeping gear. Besides that lets check out the guards and nudge them cheerfully.
"Hi, nice to be here, I didnt know this place is journeyed and guarded by this many guards."

The guards just grumble at you. There aren't actually that many of them; probably why they're grumpy, being expected to guard so many wagons with so few ponies.
You have everything but sleeping gear. Lucky for you, there's a wagon just down the line carrying blankets and comforters. The merchant driving the wagon is a cheerful young earthie stallion, who perks up as you approach.
"Good morning, ma'am. Making the rounds before we leave?"

Eh… let them sulk them, us guards will know each other as time pass by.
"Sure do, just checking how the others are doing before we embark on this journey. This is my first time riding on this route so I am excited." I grin and offer a hoof.
"My name is Miyuki."

He smiles back as he shakes your hoof. "Cut Wool. I specialize in blankets, pillows, and other sleepware. It's my first time along this route too.
Say, you seem more cheerful than the rest of these blokes. Mind walking next to my cart when we get moving so I have somepony to talk to?"
He's in the Chair's Wares section, so you could if you wanted to.

I raise my head and clear my mane off my face.
"Ah, just through enough exercise, work and good diet I suppose. Nothing fancy really like kicking wooden poles or training in underground dojo's and such." I grin at him.
I then chuckle.
"I wonder why you have to ask me to walk besides any of the merchant Cut wool? I do not mind at all, that is our job as guards is it not?" I nudge him.

>>571363
Don't worry, you've already reported and signed in. You've been assigned to guard the Chair's Wares section of the convoy, which is filled with merchants carrying miscellaneous wares. Feel free to explore before the caravan heads out, but make it quick!
>>571372
He blushes and rubs the back of his head. "Well, yeah, but… I kinda want you to be the one protecting my cart. If nothing else, you're good converation at least."
He's making a point of not looking at you.

"Oooohh… your kart?" I grin as I look at his kart and start to climb up on his kart and look down on him.
"Is this your kart?"
I then jump on another cart.
"Is this?"
And another, not minding the other merchants or guards as I go my ways.
"Or this? Tell me?"

There's a unicorn mare guard talking to one of the merchants who seems to specialize in Sleeping wares. There's also a buffalo pulling a cart filled with cooking utensils, a Zebra mare with a wagon filled with potions, an Earthie mare who seems to deal in perfumes, and even a Griffon pulling what looks to be a Library. Take your pick.
>>571375
He blushes and covers his face with his hooves.
"If you didn't want to, you could've just said no…"

Let's check out the Librarian Gryph. He must have a lot to talk about if he's read all those books.
"Howdy there, compadre! Mind if I give you a little company for the voyage? Those books might be interesting, but they don't seem to make for the best conversation partners on long journeys."

I zoomed up next to him and pat his head.
"Dont worry I will protect your kart, but I also have obligation to protect other carts." I smile and offer a hoof.
"Alright, what if I stay next to your cart along the journey but in case other caravans are attacked it is my duty to protect said caravans. Deal?"

"Eh, this is true, but they help pass the time when nothing is happening, no?" He chuckles and holds out a talon for you to shake.
"I am Irvone, printer and distributor of any and all works of literature. I would appreciate the opportunity; most of your compatriots are either too sulky…"
He glances at the unicorn mare, who is now bouncing from cart to cart.
"…Or too loopy for my tastes."
>>571378
"…Deal," he agrees hesitantly as he shakes your hoof.
The signal blows, and the caravan starts moving out. Prepare to enter Tirek's Tail.

"Don't worry, I'm no clodhopper when it comes to work, which is keeping you and your precious cargo safe. I'll do whatever dog-pawing is necessary to make sure of that. Still, care to tell a gal about all this literature you have here? At most, I'm familiar with atlases and almanacs, but I reckon you've got plenty others in storage."
"Well, we shouldn't dilly-dally too long, looks like we're off."

Alright lets get this caravan moving.
I look at Cut Wool.
"So why is such a pass called Tirek's Tail? That really doesnt sound safe to me, or even a road-worthy enough name."
I look around and just peel my eyes for anything suspicious on the horizon.

"Of course," he says as he begins pulling his cart.
You both walk a ways, eventually exiting the town gates. The caravan stretches on for what seems like miles in front of you, and just as far behind you.
"So, you are interested in my literature? Well, I have fiction, non-fiction, reference guides, adventures, mysteries, bibliographies, documantaries, dramas, tragedies, romance novels, horror novels, even a few…" he coughs politely. "…'erotic' novels… to say nothing of the classics of griffonic and equestrian literature."
>>571382
"Pleased to meet you, Tosa. Don't worry, I doubt the exitement will last. Soon you'll be asking to borrow some of my wares just to pass the time."
>>571381
Nothing yet.
"Well, it got that name from how dang treacherous it is. The land gets bad and tricky to navigate further on, and this is the only road that goes through that land. That also means that if somepony wants to jump you, they'll know exactly where you are."

"No wonder why guarding the caravans is as profitable as is dangerous. How… exciting." I smile with malevolance as I crack my hoof.
"Say, what is in that cart of yours Cutter?" I look at the cart.

"I'm pretty difficulted as to which to pick, but despite being on an adventure of my own, I wouldn't mind reading those of others. Maybe something with Elephants, if you got any? Used to hear some spooky tales about really big fellas, and that name stuck in my head for some reason."

"Um… well, there's blankets, comforters, pillows, bedsheets, pillow covers, and lingerie. Working with soft things to help you get a good nights rest is my specialty."
>>571385
"Elephants, elephants…" He taps his chin thoughtfully.
"I believe I have a few that I can think of. For now, though, you should probably stay vigilant; the dumber crooks always attack us shortly after we leave the gate, thinking they'll catch us off guard. Sadly, they've been right about that before."

"Oh so you're a tailor am I right?" I smile as we follow the caravan.
How are the other caravans? Doing alright?

So far so good, but you're beyond the town walls now. Everypony keeps glancing around.
"Indeed. Not too hard to guess, with a name like Cut Wool and a shop full of bed supplies. I'm talented and creating a comfortable and satisfying final product; ponies often say my wares helped them get a better night's sleep."
>>571388
"Ah, a pony-er, dog with a more expansive vocabulary!" He seems pleased by this.
"Tell me, what brought about your interest in the arts of language?"

Looking back, I don't know how I bored myself halfway to the underworld, but a lot of those words said they were from far off places. Started getting cravings for the outside world, had another caravan pass by and stole myself away that night and now I'm here."

His eyes go comically wide right before your hoof slams right between his eyes, the crunch of his nose getting crushed ringing out as he somersaults through the air, landing flat on his back.

Whipping your chain back, you send it arcing through their entire group, Sending them all helpless once more, including the zebra who only just managed to stagger to her hooves.

Taunting an armed opponent while he is in striking range is not a very smart tactic. You manage to avoid getting your throat cut, but the flat of his spear still cracks you in the head, sending you to the ground.
"Medium rare, by spitroast over a slow fire, your little prick. Any last words?"
>>571412
I'm sorry I missed that.
At any rate, the pegasus is so neatly bound up when he lands at your feet that he can't even wriggle, his wings held open at their full expanse as he stares up at you with wide, terror-filled eyes.
"No, please, anything but that! Shave my mane, pull my teeth, hell, cut off my leg, just please don't clip my wings!"
His voice is cracking with fear as he begs for mercy.
"I'll do anything; you want me to be your personal slave? Done! You want me to pull a wagon for you? I've got a good back! I'm sorry, I never wanted to do this, but Dorgan talked me into it! It was a stupid idea, and I'm sorry! Please! Mercy!"
"You little fucking wimp!" Dorgan, apparently what the diamond dog is named, rebukes the pegasus. "You're not getting any when we've tied her up next to the campfire!"
"For the love of Faust, shut up! There's no campfire, no group waiting to back us up, you're just trying to make us sound tough but it's just digging the hole deeper!"
By the way, there's more than enough chain left for you to just leave him there and get back to work.

OUCH, right between the legs! He ain't having grandkids!
He's also out for the count; getting hit in the diamonds will do that to you.
All the attackers have been subdued.
Lemon, you can hop back in.

Well, it took far more rope than it should have, but he's immobilized.
The zebra is still scratching herself, whimpering as her skin continues to torment her without relief. The goat is passed out nearby.
Open Path, the pegasus Tosa captured, is shivering inside his restraints as he tries in vain to turn and look at you while unable to move his head.

>>571454
Pet him a little.
"Now then, you know the punishment for Banditry. If you and your friends behave and do as your told, and I mean do everything your told, I'm sure we can put in a good word to keep the lawman a little far off. You understand me, birdy boy?"

"Y-yes, ma'am! Your word is my command! I'll do anything you tell me to, just please, if you have any mercy in your heart, don't clip my wings. Please…"
If they got turned over to the law, they'd not only get their wings clipped, but the tips would be cauterized so that the feathers would never grow back. However, the company would probably be willing to forgive and forget if they provided compensation. Say, pulling the wagons for some of the merchants…
>>571457
"Glad to see you're all right there, Miyuki," Wool says. "Now, I'll see if Malaia has something to cure that zebra, and we'll get these vagabonds hitched up to the carts."

Open Path lies on the ground before you, tied up in chains so tightly he can't move an inch, his wings spread out wide and unable to fold in.
"So…" He cautiously pries. "W-what happens now?"

"Well, compadre, that depends on a few things."
Sit on top of him.
"Most of the merchants here wouldn't mind if I left you a little more dinged up than you already are, a little closer to your doggy friend of yours. Thing is, I'm sure a little taffy from you might make them feel better about keeping you around."
Put my paw on his head.
"If you and the others haul your weight and then some, we might look kindly on letting you keep your wings. So whats says you? Willing to work from sun up till sun down and those extra bits too to keep your wings, on top of whatever little things a nice lass like me asks you for?"

He gulps heavily, a shudder running down his body as you touch the back of his head.
"O-of course, ma'am, a-anything! Your wish is my order. I'll be the hardest-working colt you've ever seen!
Though, um… out of curiosity…" he blushes and looks away- well, his eyes do, since he can't move his head. "N-nevermind. It's not important."

"You getting a cold or something?"
"Anyways, now that the deal has been struck, I'll let the others know. They ask you to pull a cart, you do so. Someone asks for a hoof massage, you do it. Anyone needs a bed time story read, they only tell you once or they start chopping off those feathers of yours and make a hat out of them."
Lift him up in his bundle of chains and stare him in the eye.
"Have we come to an acceptable agreement?"

His lip trembles as he fights to force the words out.
"It's not my decision… it's yours. You own me now, I am your… property…" his voice cracks up at this, leaving him fighting to hold back tears as he struggles to continue.
"…And as your property, it is you who decides what I do. Tell me to do as you said… and I will do it."
His eyes are wide and scared, but there's also a hint of something twinkling in the back. Deception? no… anger? uh-uh…
He seems rather calm about this.

Give him a Diamond Dog smile.
"As long as you remember those words and don't wind up as some tendsome filly, you'll be able to keep those precious wings of yours."
Start carrying him over my shoulder and see if I can go grab the others too.
"We're going to get you fitted with a nice piece of iron jewelry for those hooves of y'all and especially for your wings. Every night, I'm going to tie you up and have you sleep at my feet and those of the other guards. Don't try anything funny and you might just get to use them when we let ya."

You carry him off as you go to collect the others.
The diamond dog is tied up tight and getting dragged off by several other guards. The zebra is getting some sort of bath by the wagon of the zebra mare who sells perfumes; at least she isn't itching anymore. You're only really able to retrieve the goat, who's still out for the count.
You can hear a soft sniffling sound coming from behind you, but when you turn around there's no one there. The sniffling sound is still behind you.
…Is he crying?

"I know," he sniffles. "I knew this would end badly from the moment Dorgan told us about it, but he just kept telling me I was being a wimp…"
Hiccuping, he fights to get the tears back under control.
"I didn't wanna do it. I don't want to be here, I don't wanna be a robber or a free-liver or any of that stuff he told me… I-I just…"
He chokes up.
"I-I just wanna go home! I wanna go home! I'll take the beating, I'll gladly do the chores for the next ten years, I'll listen to mom and dad next time the tell me someone's bad, if I just… I wanna go home…"

"And I wanna see the world, but both of us are right here, right now. Listen, you do what you're told, and you do it well, you might actually see your house. Maybe they'll even keep ya on board as an honest to goodness em-ploy-ee."
Put him back under my arm and keep walking towards any blacksmith or metal seller.
"However, don't forget your words. Right now, you belong to me, and by extension, all these righteous folks who count themselves as my employer. Once we get you fitted, me and the other guard will probably use you as pillows or paw stools or whatever we deem necessary or entertaining."
"Just remember, you take your licks now, and you might end up better for it."

He manages to quiet his sniffles, for now at least.
There's a blacksmith's section just up ahead. One of the ponies there waves you over.
"Hey there miss! What brings ye down here?"

"Don't know if you managed to catch the show, but these here varmints tried their hoof at banditry. Needless to say, it didn't work out. He took a proper lacing and now we intend to make them pay their way like civilized peoples. Hoping you could press some shackles and such for their hooves and fly-boy's wings here."

He just tilts his head at you. "Why didn't ye jest kill 'em? It's faster and simpler."
Path has gone completely rigid in your grip.
"It's not like they'd be missed; fer each one we cut down, three more pop up."

Put him down and run a claw over his neck.
"That was the original idea, but this group proved to be easier to deal with than a sick squirrel after drinking himself stupid. Figured we could make them pull the carts. Plus, you need someone to do something you don't wanna do, you've got two volunteers right here."
"Well, one volunteer and one unconscious goat, but he'll be available soon."

"Err, miss? We kin get started on the goat's, but… could ye take those chains off'f him so we kin get to work?"

Start undoing Path's chains.
"Remember, keep it straight and narrow and you keep your wings. If you so much as look at the sky with longing, I'll tie you up so much that you'll only be able to move around by rolling."

He blinks, chewing on his bottom lip as he processes this… and nods dumbly, continuing to stare straight ahead even as he's led over to where the manacles are being made.
"Want them to be a tight fit, ye know. After all, yer wearing them fer the rest of yer life."
There's a round of laughter that sweeps through the metalworkers at that.
Already the goat's manacles are almost done, his unconsciousness contributing to the ease with which they were fitted.

I'll go grab the Zebra too, make sure she gets fitted properly before she gets any ideas. I'll let the others handle that Dog.
Once they're all done, I'll take them to whatever place I call my sleeping quarters and make sure they're tied down good and solid.
"Path, lay on the ground, on your belly."

He clinks loudly as he stumbles over, wincing and limping as he goes where you instructed. The smith's didn't wait for the metal to fully cool before clapping the manacles on; his legs are pretty badly burned.
Wordlessly, he lays down on his belly, ears drooping as he rests his chin on the ground, rolling his shoulders once to adjust the thick leather vest trapping his wings against his body.

Grab some water and some cloth, then sit on him again.

Start washing the burns on him.

He thinks about that for a minute. The other ones didn't get burned as badly, except for the goat, but he's still loopy.
"…Could we… get me a nametag or something?"
He glances away, a slight blush coming to his cheeks.
"Maybe a collar… so that everyone will know I'm yours?"
He fights to remain relaxed but can't help but give you a hopeful glance.

"I guess, you did surrender to me in particular. Tell you what, next morning, I'll see if the scrap sellers have anything and I can use my claws to put my name on it. It's a weird suggestion coming from you, but it works, so what the hay? Now then, like I said before, you do as a I say. No more words out of your mouth for the whole night while I fall asleep. Tomorrow is when you start paying us back."

Though he's blushing brightly, it's pretty clear he's happy about the idea.

Toss a blanket on them, the nights can get cold.
Go back to Path, put a blanket on him, and sit on his back.
"My brothers kept taking my things, so I got used to keeping most of my precious things near me as much as possible. Seeing as how you belong to me, I won't be hearing any complaints coming from you tonight, tomorrow, or ever."
Wrap myself in a blanket and get some shuteye.

You wake up well-rested and refreshed from having a warm mattress to sleep on.
Your mattress, however, is looking a little bleary-eyed this morning. To his credit, though, Path managed to avoid moving an inch last night. Maybe his special talent is actually being a mattress?

For Security purposes (and because I hadn't really given them much personality in the first place), you've only been assigned the one prisoner to guard. You'll be able to guard more in the future, but for now, Path is all you've got.
There's a small gathering of ponies and other equines nearby cooking various vegetative dishes. Path keeps his head down and ears flat as he clinks along beside you.

Irvone, the book-selling griffon, waves to you from off to the side. You recognize a few of the ponies by sight, but not by acquaintance. Most of this caravan is a collection of strangers.
Eventually, it comes your turn for rations.
"One carnivorous meal, coming right up!"
It's some eggs, bacon, and hash browns. nothing elegant, but enough to fill your stomach.

"Tell me, was the food as good as it smells? Oh, and don't worry about the hanger-on here, property like him knows to keep quiet unless spoken to."
>>572598
"Oh, it is magnificent, my friend! So, the troublemaker finds he has only made trouble for himself, eh?"
Path just keeps his head down and his eyes on the ground, waiting for instructions from you.
"Come, sit, sit! I enjoy speaking with you, my friend."

>>572599
Look at Path.
"Sorry little fella, but the others might object to you eating on the table with us."
Paw off his bowl to him.
"You seem awfully cheerful after this attack, Irvone. Are you just that confident in us, or did you read a really good book?"

"I'm used to it," he quietly acknowledges. "Thanks for remembering to feed me."
He hunkers down underneath the table near you and starts tearing into his 'food,' holding it close as he shoves as much food in his mouth as he possibly can while still remaining quiet, his eyes darting about as if he expects someone to try and take the food from him.
"These attacks, they are expected, you know? I am happy because of how easily they were dealt with! Surely this is a good omen for the rest of our trip."

"I hope you're right. 'Course, I'll still be on the chain if anyone else tries to mix it up with up. Maybe seeing others like Open Path here getting put to work will make 'em think twice about their plans."
Start chowing down on the food.

Well, the cook certainly knows how to do his job. Your food is gone in no time!
"I doubt it. Either their skulls are too thick to see that they would suffer the same fate, or they are too cowardly to defy the leader. Whose skull is often thick."
Irvone eyes Path appraisingly as he wipes his beak.
"Say… what plans to you have for that one, exactly? Anything specific yet, or…?"

"First thing I need to remind him is that he belongs to me. Second if that he'll be doing work and earning his keep. Seeing as how we just have open road ahead of us, I was thinking of offering him to you so you can read while he pulls. I'd say it's a fair way to start the first day of the rest of the life he owes me."

>>572604
"Ah! Then we are of like minds on the matter!
…Pardon my asking, but, ah… what would 'reminding him' entail, exactly? I do not wish to have any blood getting on my books…"
Path's ear twitches as he stiffens, gulping down his last mouthful.

"Nothing of the like! I'm pretty protective of my property, no way I'm risking putting him out of commission. All I meant to do was make sure he was tied real tight to the cart and bring the chains along if he starts getting uppity."
Look down at Path.
"Even I'm getting tired of repeating this, but if you try anything, you'll be lucky if I manage to cook you into overland trout. The others here won't be so kind when dealing with property that starts trying to leave on its own."
"Irvone, you ready? I can tie him up for you and you can read in peace if you want."

"Ah, yes! As a matter of fact, I am! I shall take our dishes back; go ahead and hitch him to my cart."
Once he leaves with your dishes, Path sighs and rests his chin on the bench.
"I get it, okay? Same deal as back with the gang, same deal as before that: I step out of line, I get messed up and what's left of me gets tossed in the gutter."
He starts tilting his head upward before jerking it back down and clenching his eyes shut.
"You… you let me keep my wings, even if I can't use them right now. I've got nothing to gain from misbehaving, and a lot to lose."

Give him a smile and start petting him.
"Sorry, but you're in a bit of a tizzy, aren't you? I gotta make sure I press it in, but I'm not so cruel as to hurt you. As long as you do as your told, everything will be fine. Besides, these are hard working folks out to make ends meet. You'll be asked to pull carts or clean things up, but it's honest work. Keep your eyes and ears focused on that and you;ll see it isn't so bad."

He sighs and relaxes as you pet him.
"I know; I usually get the grunt work anyway. I'm just… I'm scared. Not all of those ponies are as nice as you, and fewer have your inhibitions about hurting us… hurting me. That's… part of why I want a collar. It's… something to remind me that I'm yours, yes, but… it would also be a protection against the rest of them. A way for you to be protecting me, even when you're not present, if you will.
…I don't know why I started thinking about this, but it just… sorta makes sense."

You are a guard hired to protect the eleventh Treacle's-Trading Company Trade Caravan on it's journey along the long, treacherous expanse of highway from the town of Tortera to Port Callibu, an infamous passageway that has come to be known as Tirek's tail. You can expect attacks from bandits looking to steal your goods, wild animals looking to make you their next meal, and rival companies looking to eliminate the competition with extreme prejudice.
The caravan set out yesterday, and was almost immediately attacked by bandits. Your fellow guards swiftly repulsed them, even taking some of them prisoner.
It is currently breakfast-time. Line up and get your rations.

"It'll really drive home the fact that your property too. You sure about that? On one paw, it'll protect you. On another, it'll condemn you. Maybe in the future you could take it off, but it'll still exist and your neck will always know the weight of it."
"I can probably find some scraps to put together, but this is your last chance. I don't like doing things in half-measures."

It takes him several moments of thought and strained breathing to respond.
"…I've never been free. Not really. If it wasn't the leader of the gang, it was the guy with the most muscle, the most influence, telling me where to go, what to do. The truth is, I've never made a single meaningful decision in my life."
He takes a deep, shuddering breath, his lips trembling as he steels himself.
"So here and now, I'm deciding to make my own choice, for the first and probably last time. I may never be free… but I can at least choose my master."
He kneels down, shaking nervously as he fights himself, before the shudders go still. Slowly, he leans forward and gently kisses your foot.
"I am yours, body, mind, and soul, from now until the day I die. If you will have me…"
>>572613
Eventually, you reach the cook who is currently passing out food.
"One herbivore meal, coming right up!"
It's SugarGrass and Prench Toast for breakfast today.
There's a couple different merchants you can sit with, or you can go eat by yourself.

"Honestly, you make me feel like I'm the bad guy now. It's true you've done wrong, but you're also paying for it. I'll get you your collar and even I'm praying you made the right choice."
Let's go find a piece of metal, something that will work for his collar.

He blinks in surprise, then smiles warmly.
"Of course! It's been a while since I've cooked for others with such tastes. It would be a pleasure."
There's a couple of guards sulking in the corner; they don't look very talkative. There's also a zebra mare, an earth pony, and a unicorn.
>>572616
"Bad guy? You are the first pony-er, dog- to really show me any kindness. Trust me, this is what I want."
He fidgets nervously.
"Though… would it be too much to ask that I be allowed to fly every now and then?"
There's actually a merchant that specializes in customized belt buckles. That could work. Then you'd just need to stop by the belt merchant nearby and pick up a suitably thick belt.

"That's fine, but only because I'm small enough to ride on your back. Sorry, but the only times you'll take to the sky is with me on your back."
I'll want to pick up both things then, hopefully they're close.

Yep, they're right next to each other. In fact, it looks like they're run by brothers.
"'Ello!"
"'Ello there!"
"Welcome to my shop-"
"They're here for my shop, brother dear."
"Preposterous! My wares are far superior to yours!"
"But our products are required to work together, brother dear."
"Quite right, dear brother, quite right. So, what can I-"
"-He means me-"
"-I mean we, do for you today?"
>>572619
The zebra mare is sitting in a pretty quiet spot, calmly acknowledging your presence as you sit before returning to her food.

"Ah yes!"
"Of course, of course!"
"Allow us!"
"Allow me."
They both descend upon a very nervous Path, poking, prodding, wrapping measuring tape around his belly and neck, muttering and bickering all the while.
"Anything you would like the collar's buckle to say?"
"Yes, perhaps a name or a date."
"Or a destination, perhaps."
"Two names?"
"Possibly. Would you like the collar to have spikes?"
"Make him keep his neck nice and straight!"
"Make's him intimidating, too."
>>572621
As she sets her plate aside, she folds her hooves and examines you.

but in you I do sense more than meets the eye."

"Quite right, quite right."
"Quite pragmatic, indeed."
"Don't you mean practical, brother dear?"
"Indeed, my dear brother, that's what I said, isn't it?"
A few headache-inducing moments later, they finally emerge with two large belts. the first is small and clearly meant to be the collar, made of tall, thick belt material with a single metal buckle, bearing stylized feathers and wind gusts around the letters "T O S A"
The second is not a belt at all, but an oversized saddle modified to completely cover his folded wings.
"Will these satisfy?"
"Of course they will; we made them, didn't we?"
"You never know, brother dear."
"Quite right, quite right."

"Zenthia is my name, a merchant of smells,

The work satisfies, for I have a knack
though my most popular products are aphrodisiacs."
She smirks knowingly.
"Now I am introduced, as you did ask;
So may I be enlightened on who I speak to at last?"
>>572627
"Just our job, miss."
"How we make a living!"
Granted, there's a lot of metalwork involved, but the majority of this is leather and other belt materials. An iron collar would weigh him down and make his neck weak, and an iron saddle would probably break his back.
Path eyes them both appraisingly, shying away from the saddle instintively. However, the collar seems to command most of his attention.

They return the thanks once they've been paid and return to their shops.
"Come back soon!"
"But if she comes back soon, it means our product isn't working."
"Oh, right. Come back eventually!"
"He means come by anytime!"
"But what if she comes while we're sleeping?"
"Then we'll work in our pajamas."
"Brilliant!"
Path is turning the collar over in his hooves, finally holding it still as he examines the buckle.
Finally, he chuckles and gives a slight grin.
"It's… nicer than anything I've ever worn before."
He holds it out to you and tilts his head to expose his neck.

Make sure I get it on tight.
"But, that doesn't mean I have to make you suffer for it."
Then loosen it a little. I don't need to choke the poor horse.
"I am thinking of keeping you for the rest of your natural life, but if you do good, I could see it in me, and I could talk to the others, to reconsider your situation in the future. Now, let's get a move on. Irvone is waiting for us."

He rubs his neck experimentally, getting used to the feel of the collar. Then he smiles, though there is at least some sadness in it.
"…Thank you."
He walks with a somewhat straighter posture as you go to Irvone's wagon. Sure enough, Irvone is already there waiting for you.
"Ah, there you are! I was worried you had skipped out on me! Ah, I see the pet has some new accessories, eh? You make sure they are on good and tight?"
>>572633
"Some company on the road would certainly be nice,
But for now I seek you for a different device.
Later this day, we shall near a place
where a carnivorous pack of wolves lies in wait for a feast.
Given the chance, they would leave too little of us for a hearse,
So it is thus I propose that we strike them first."

Will wait until Knight returns to initiate combat.
As you walk beside her, Zenthia fills you in on this pack of wolves. Apparently they've attacked the caravan every time they've passed through this area, often dragging several ponies off to be eaten. This year, however, she wants to attack them first and try to wipe them out.

It takes a bit of straining, grunting, and a bit of chafing on Path's part, but soon the two of you have him hooked up to the cart and ready to begin.
He pulls experimentally, then smiles softly as he nods.
"Alright. This isn't so bad."
"Just wait until the middle of the day," Irvone cautions him. "When you're sweating buckets you may sing a different tune."
You're approached by a zebra and a crystal ponyBDN. The zebra speaks up.
"Good day to you, and well met.
Is a moment of your time something I can get?"

in times past they have left many ponies dead.
It is my thinking that it is time we must act,
to drive them from this place without subtlety or tact."

"Golly, why hasn't anyone gone after them before!? Well, this is what I get paid for, so I'll rid you and the caravan of that pesky pooch problem."

"Forgive me, but I find it plain to see
that your statement carries much irony."
Do you want to wait for BDN or Lemon, or keep going?

Stare at her for a moment in confusion.
"What are you getting at, oh… Heh, not my best word choice. Anywho, you must have been part of this caravan before if you know about those wolves. Have they sent anyone after them before?"

"A few times have ponies been sent that way,
but they did not act to prevent the problem today.
To drive them off, we must strike at their nest,
Destroy where they sleep and get their rest.
Simply backing them off will no longer do;
The time has come to get rid of them too."

"You're right. It ain't enough to just cork a gopher's hole, or a wolf's den. Let me get mah gear, but do you have anything that might help throw them off our scent. I don't want them following us to get some revenge."

"Ah, yes, how forgetful of me.
I've already prepared for that problem, you see."
Reaching into her bags, she pulls out a bottle of some greenish fluid and tosses it to you.
"Pour this on your hooves to mask your scent.
The wolves will have no warning of your intent."
Path paws the ground nervously.
"Isn't this, you know… dangerous? What if you get hurt out there?"

"Great, now we won't have to worry about leading them accidentally!"
Turn and pet Path.
"I'm strong enough to take you down, those wolves will be like walking down the carpet on my wedding day. You just make sure to keep this cart moving and I'll be right back with you."

When I've already assured you that all will be well?"
She chuckles lightly.
"It's purpose is to mask your scent.
I much doubt it could be used for any other intent."

Having split off from the main caravan, you are now deep inside the woods, following the zebra mare as she leads you to a large clearing. Your hooves and paws are still sticky from that potion, but at least it just smells like… the absence of smell.
"The wolves den lies just ahead.
I hope they chose to stay in bed."

There's about five of them walking around outside of a cave in the back. There's a large one that's probably the sentry, judging by the way he's sitting on the highest rock and overlooking the rest of the pack. There's a she-wolf beside him that's probably his mate.
One is laid out on the ground napping, while the other two are play-fighting.

The caravan's just fine; it's early morning for you.
As for the bandits from yesterday, the pegasus is pulling a cart for that griffon who sells books; you notice he's sporting a new wing-restraining saddle and a large collar bearing a buckle that says "T O S A."
However, the leader is pulling a cart back behind Cut Wool, wearing heavy-looking manacles and chains.
There is also another guard nearby; a Diamond Dog, in fact. He's a big one, too.

Finally, he smiles slyly at you.
"No trouble, once we got the gag in," he rumbles, reaching up and stretching slowly. His muscles ripple and bulge, stretching his skin taught as he reaches for the sky. Since he's not wearing much aside from some shoulder armor and a pair of shorts, you get a good look at the entire show.
"So… what's your name?"

If we are only near civilization we could have just dumped them in the prisons, but well since we are now here we got no choice but to… babysit them am I right?" I glance at the guard and give him a confident and challenging look as I raise my head.

"I'm Bigspear. It is nice to see you, Miyuki."
His gaze openly shifts to your flanks, his smile widening before he looks back down at you.
"So, Miyuki. The caravan doesn't set out for a while yet this morning. Care to join me as I make my rounds?"
His entire body is like one mass of muscles, all of them swelled and taught beneath his skin. He could probably pick you up and throw you like a football if he wanted to.

I chuckle as he scratch my ears and flick his paws away.
"H… hey, that tickles, we are on guard duty you know that, alright lets have a look around shall we? With how these bandits are able to creep up so close to us it will be good to keep an eye around right?" I then follow Big spear around and keep my eyes on the horizon for anything.

"So, miss Miyuki… sleep well last night?"

I look at him a bit disturbed as I blush and gulp at the sudden sight in front of me. I then lower my tail even more to cover myself.
"Uhhmmm…. yes Bigspear, I mean yeah I slept alright, how about you?" I try to said in a confident tone.
"Hot weather today is it not ehehe… "

I then tilt my head a bit confused before contemplating.
"Well one can keep close to the campfire right? That is practically easy but I guess I can help you set up one if you are having trouble. I mean are you having trouble with that? That is basic survival skills." I smile at him before looking away so I would not glance at anything.

Very secure. In fact… you notice that you've both wandered into a very secluded part of the caravan.
"Actually, I think I just found one."
Suddenly his arms are wrapped around you, pulling you close to his chest before you can react.
It's like being surrounded by muscle, squeezed gently but firmly from every direction, your forelegs pinned to your chest as you feel his hot breath on your ear.
"So, what do you say, pretty pony?"

You go limp in his grasp, allowing him to embrace you once more, his other hand beginning to rub your chest as he nibbles your ear.
"Yes, I am a guard. Why am I doing this? Because I know it feels good, and feeling good makes ponies happy. You are very pretty pony, but very tense; very unhappy. I want to make you happy, Miyuki. I want to make you feel good…"
And you have to admit… it's working. This feels… really, really good…

He gives you the cliffs-notes versions of not-Gulliver's Travels.
"These novels of which I speak, though, they are no good for brain. They are fluff, mindless romances with no logic or thought. This one," He gestures to a book with a picture of an apple being held by two pale white hooves, "Is the worst of the bunch. A girl - with no personality of her own! - goes to a town surrounded by fog, only to find VAMPIRES! Oh, but these are only misunderstood vampires, who fall in love with her for some reason or something. and then she dies, only she doesn't die, and has half-pony, half-vampire babies. Did I mention these vampires SPARKLE when exposed to sunlight?"

"…You poor, neglected girl."
Suddenly, he stands, snapping his wings out with purpose as he puffs his chest, accidentally cracking Path on the rump, who just jumps and flattens his ears while lowering his head.
"I shall show you the world you have been missing!"
With that, he grabs you and pulls you inside his cart.

As a canine yourself, the scents and air currents are something you can read like the back of your paw.
The air current from the North is slow and meandering; the tunnel probably curves in on one of the other tunnels somewhere.
The Northeast smells of Wolves and meat; that's probably where most of them are gathered.
The East has a cool, constant aircurrent. There must be another exit on the other end of this tunnel.
The air from the Southeast tunnel is still and unmoving. Must be a dead end.

You move forward without problems, finding your path mostly unblocked.
You come to a crossroads; one path splits north, smelling of wolves and meat; The other continues east, still carrying the cool, constant aircurrent. You also pick up the faint scent of wolves; there must be sentries in the back.

I then hope in my heart that his abuse~ of me earlier will not hurt my fighting capabilites
I then look at the alpha wolf and steel myself as I gather my chi-energy from my horn nad into my hoofs as I look at the wolf.
"Prepare yourself! I'll make you mincemeat you ass! Hiyaaa!" I jump at the alpha with my chi-focused hoof directly flying to his face
"Sutā no hidzume!!"

I pant as Ianded a solid hoof to that wolf when suddenly my hind legs buckle at the stress, still tired weak to undertake this fight. I then grit my teeth as I look at Bigspear with a scrunch and a blush.

Oh, you did manage to find something! It's long and thick, and has all these wierd bumps and ridges. There's also a weird set of half-circles on the bottom, and a switch on the flat side.

Bigspear archs an eyebrow at your find before giving you a knowing grin.

"Agreed. We'll come back and collapse the caves."
You all head back to the caravan. Event complete!

You arrive back at the caravan about an hour before dinner and drop the wolf carcasses off with a skinner, who promises to pay you when he's done.
Where to in the hour before dinner?
>>574807
He grins and picks it up, putting it in his pack.
Back at the caravan, Bigspear immediately carries you to the nearest doctor.
"Well now," The mare says as she examines your leg, "What happened here?"

I gasp as the doctor began the work.
"Bitten by a big wolf that we dispatched earlier, we did kind of a good job since with them taking care'd of they will never bother any caravans anymore, it will be a fast job… if I had my whole body working fine and not limping….. no thanks to him." I glance at Big spear.

"I see the task I gave to you

She has potions, lotions, even some aphrodisiacs if you're into that sort of thing.
What are you looking for?
>>574816
"Mm-hm," she mumbles, glancing at your collar before getting back to work. "Well, it's not pretty. You're going to need stitches for this. You also have some bites on your neck; not as deep, hardly broke the skin actually. You're a lucky mare."

I blush as arrange my mane to cover the bite marks on my neck.
"Ah… well they are no…. I mean yes they tried to bit me but I slipped ahahaha…" I smile.
I then look as she began to stitch it.
"It will not cause that much damage right? I mean it will heal in time." I look at my wound a bit worried.

She pulls out three different potions.

This one is for wounds that carry disease,
and this one is for one with grievous injuries."

"Glad pony will be all right. Would be sad if she was hurt."
"Yes, thank you for bringing her straight to me. It helped minimize the damage the tissue suffered."

It takes a bit of the money you found, but you still have plenty left over.

"No, no, NO! Try again!"

"No, you imbecile! It is "j-k-l-m-n-o-p!" Try again!"

The caravan has been covered by a thin fog this morning; perfect cover for you to move about unseen. Even your fellow guards are unlikely to notice your absence for a good while.
The unsuspecting merchants in the caravan are ripe for the picking. What path do you take now?

I make sure my cape is properly covering me before I start to move about. If nothing's happening, I'm gonna look for anything interesting that might be happening. Maybe there's something small I can pick up too on my morning round.

Not much is happening aside from breakfast being served. This also means that most of the wagons are getting left unattended. You can roll to shift through the contents of any cart you wish.
Right now, there are three carts nearby; a rundown patched-up hodgepodge of scrap wood that looks like it's about to fall apart any second now, a simple four-wheel cart with subtle patterning on the sides and a discreet cloth covering, and a pioneer wagon with stylized artwork along the sides.

This seems to be the cart of a wood-carver, filled with various carvings and stylized pieces of furniture. However, your knowledge serves you well, allowing you to find a hidden box between the axles of the cart. It's locked, so you'll have to roll to pick the lock, but there's definitely something worthwhile inside.

No can do, compadre. This box is attached tight; besides, the merchant would be sure to miss it, and something like this wouldn't be easy to hide.
You manage to pick the lock, but it was more difficult than you thought. A thorough examination would make it obvious the lock was picked, though a passing glance wouldn't.
Inside, there's quite a large stockpile of money; several bag's worth, in fact! However, if you take it all, that would be pretty obvious…

You came out with about enough money to buy a small wagon if you wanted; not sure where you'd get one. The point is, it's more than enough to live off of for the next few weeks.

I might see if there's a bowyer or a smith in the caravan. Something fancy. Or if there's something happening, I'm interested.

"I'm going to have to agree with Irvone here. You need to know your 3 R's if you want me to keep you. I mean, what if I leave written instructions for ya? What'l' you do then?"

A bowyer? There's actually one a little further up in the caravan, if word of mouth is to be believed.

He goes pale and gulps, then starts again.
"A, b, c, d, e, f, g…"
Help Path learn his letters, or leave that to Irvone and do something else?

>>576091
Irvone looks at you slack-jawed as Path obediently begins again.
"A, b, c, ch, d, e, f, g…"
Irvone shakes his head and stares at you.
"…what?"
>>576092
As you head up that way, you pass a runt diamond dog and a griffon trying to teach a pegasus the alphabet. The pegasus has his wings tightly bound and is wearing a collar with a tag that reads "T O S A."

Irvone shakes his head.
"Excuse me, which alphabet are you using, exactly?"
Path hangs his head in shame and starts again.
"A, b, c, ch, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, ll, m, n, o…"
>>576095
The griffon glances at you.
"Oh hello. We are trying to educate this poor soul, but are running into some… difficulties."
Irvone shakes his head.

"Howdy there, you must be one of the other Guards that got hired. I'm Tosa, pleased to meet ya."
Offer a paw.
"Don't worry too much about Open Path here. He's just doing his time and we hope he learns from it."

He blinks, then slaps his head.
"Of course! You're meaning the Saddlish alphabet! It has three more letters than the Equuish alphabet, you see. Did you… did you have to teach yourself how to read?"
>>576100
Irvone guffaws as you refer to the pegasus as a lass. The pegasus himself just blushes furiously and scrunches as he looks away.
"You hear that, Path? Better do a better job hiding that makeup!
Ah, but I joke. Path here is a criminal captured by my good friend Tosa here when he tried to attack the caravan."

"I had to teach myself to figure out some of the bigger words. Everyone gets taught the basics, since you need them to follow instructions others leave behind, but not much more than that. Got lucky and found the book and just tried to read what I could."
>>576104
"Well, I'll be darned. It's the first I've ever heard of those letters. Where you from that you get those?"

"It's chilly and nice. The guards are corrupt as all hell though. You could get away with murder if you had enough bits. Not that I ever had to. Trottinghäfvn is a huge port city on the ice sea too, a lot of fishing and some cold-water piracy there."

"Enough, enough you two!" Irvone interjects. "The poor boy doesn't even know one language's alphabet, and you're trying to teach him three!"
For his part, Path has curled up as best he can in his harness and put his hooves against his head. Realizing your eyes are on him, he stumbles to his hooves.
"I-I can do it, really! Uh, A, ae, o, b, c, ch, l… um… I…"

He hangs his head in shame.
"Sorry for being so dumb… I'm not a very smart pony…"
The pat on the head seems to have calmed him down, though.
>>576115
The griffon screeches as if you'd just kicked him someplace sensitive.
"What is the point?! How can you expect him to read if he doesn't know the alphabet?! Imbecile!"

"It's a bit more complicated than that. Punishment for Banditry is harsh for a reason, but him and his acquisition oriented friends did less than a stellar job of that. Company seems fine with putting him to work instead."
>>576121
"Guess so. I'll admit that my learning is based on an old dictionary I found under the Earth. I'd listen to what Irvone has to say about all that."

"And I'm grateful for that," he interjects, smiling as he nuzzles your paw.
"You've been really good to me."
>>576123
"Better than any other deal I've ever gotten. I spend so much time as a lackey and essentially a whipping-boy for the strongest gang member, I figured I might as well get to choose my master."

"Between Path's friends and those wolves we were sent to clear out earlier, it's been just a boring haul so far."
>>576126
"You're going to wear yourself out thinking on that. Focus on the now, you've got me and Irvone trying to get you an education. You're still closer to a pet, but even you can see the light at the end of this tunnel."

He shivers and blushes as you refer to him as a pet.
"Yes ma'am. So, which language do you want me to learn again?…"
"Let's start with Equuish," Irvone interjects. "Maybe after that, he can move on to the Saddlish."
Want to roll to see how well you do teaching him the alphabet today?
>>576128
He just looks away and blushes.

Unfortunately, it seems having three alphabets thrown at him at once left him having much greater difficulty, often accidentally adding a letter from one of the other alphabets or getting them in the wrong order. Finally, Irvone sighs and waves his talon for silence.
"Enough. We have done all we can for now; the rest shall have to wait until tomorrow. Until then, we should all go have some dinner before it gets dark."

Unhook him from the cart and bring him along with us. Are the other captives here as well?

Yup, the zebra and the goat seem to be doing all right. The Diamond dog, though…
"I can break these chains!"
"No," Bigspear sighs, "you can't break those chains."
"HUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH-"
He seems to be doing a better job of just flexing his muscles than he is of actually having an impact on the chains.
"Jerob, stop," the goat groans. "Just… just stop."
"AH CAN BREAK THESE CHAINS!"

"Yes, we already have the disposal's portion prepared," he chuckles, hoofing over a carnivore dish of a burger, fries, and some hushpuppies.
and a bowl of… something nasty-looking. Some pieces of vaguely recognizable vegetables are floating in it, but… ew.
"Hope the boy likes stew!" The whole cooking crew busts out laughing.
>>576142
"One herbivore meal, coming right up! It's Daffodil sandwiches and Hay-fries with broccoli tonight!"

"Here you go Path. Doesn't seem like much at all, but they might start looking, and cooking, kindly once they see you're willing to put in your share of work."

Another day, another paycheck. The Caravan continues along it's way, free of wolf attack thanks to your clearing their cave out. This morning dawns on a rather rainy day that has all the merchants scurrying to cover their goods and themselves.
CANELA
Lucky for you that your large hat is keeping the rain out of your eyes. Unfortunately, now your tummy's rumbling. Too bad you were stationed someplace where none of the interesting stuff happened, but now you've been transferred to where the real action will be!
…Hopefully.

In Bigspear's tent, of course! Which of course explains the enormous arm currently wrapped around you.
Even as you realize this, Bigspear grunts in his sleep and pulls you closer, nuzzling into your mane as the collar tag around your neck jingles.
>>577672
Umm… maybe? Where's the last place you remember being?
>>577674
Possibly… there's a lot of carts around here; plenty of targets for you to choose from.

You could pinch some silverware, or keep looking for some more solid currency.

He's sleeping soundly enough that wriggling out isn't too much of a hastle. You're free of his grip, though it looks like he won't stay asleep for long with your warmth gone.

Looks like it's taters and Porridge for breakfast today.
There's a goat commenting loudly on how good the porridge is over in the corner.

He blinks in surprise, then smiles gratefully as he submissively lowers his head.
"Thank you for thinking of me, master. I think I'm ready; should I help gather the blankets?"
>>577715
>>577714
Well, here comes a unicorn who hasn't started eating yet. He's making his way right for you!
>>577717
Well, you're not soaked anymore, but you're still wet. Maybe you should just go get breakfast already.

Ah! Correct, at least I am clean now that is what matters!
"Yoosh! Lets get to it." I head to… whereever food is served in the caravan for us guards? I mean we do need sustenance so I expect these caravan owners owe us specially with how we kinda killed those wolves who are buggering us."

Sausage and bacon. The chef passes you a bowl filled with slop and… other stuff for Path.
"Remember to bring your dishes back when you're done!"
There's a goat chatting loudly with your other companions about the food.

Okay lets just continue eating.
"Taken the time to wash myself so sorry for the mess, it is raining and the river is several days away still so if you guys need some washing nows the time."
>>577732
I smile at you.
"Why is that? I mean how can you monitor the time without having a standardized system."
"Ah Canela, my name is Miyuki." I offer my hoof.

>>577741
"The situation is that breakfast is starting to get cold. After yesterday's adventure, I'm still famished."
>>577742
"Yup. Can't leave without the poor little guy. Gotta keep a watch over him against the less savory Caravaners."

"How about you? Came here for an easy bit? This caravan business is good for us guards I mean they are willing to hire this many to guard them right?"
>>577743
"Uhmmm… alright? That sounds kinda weird but are you sure about that?" I raise any eybrow as I eat.
>>577744

>>577755
Wave my paws in front of me.
"Hey, I got this from the Chef. Unless he's a killer too, you shouldn't worry."

He silently passes you back the bowl. There's still a lot left in it; then again, looking at what is left in there, you can't really blame him.
>>577761
>>577760
>>577755
A loud bell sounds to signal that the caravan is getting ready to leave. All the merchants start hooking up their carts and making sure their wares are okay.

You all take your plates back up.

There's a series of snickers as they start washing the dishes.

He just keeps his head down submissively. Roll perception.

The caravan seems to be doing decently, though a few carts are needing an extra push to get unstuck from the mud.
Suddenly, a massive paw is picking you up and hugging you close to a massive, ripped chest.
"Hello, Miyuki pony," Bigspear breathes as he nuzzles your mane. "Sleep good last night?"
>>577775
"Thank y-" His stomach gives a loud rumble as he shoves a hoof over his mouth.
"T-thank you…"
"Hello there!" Irvone calls from his wagon. "Good to see you; let's get going before my books get soaked!"
>>577776
There's a funny griffon wearing glasses waving you all over.

"I… I don't know…" His face is starting to get a greenish tinge, and he seems to be breathing heavily. Irvone gives him a concerned look.
"Is he feeling well? He looks a bit under the weather; more so than we, it seems."
Path's stomach gives another gurgle as he clutches his belly.
"S-something's not right…" he groans.

"But yeah caravan and carts are restricted by the road so you cant and be unable to go trek the higher and steep parts of the landscape, I mean goats do love climbing if I am correct." I scratch my head.

>>577782

Before you get the chance, there's another loud gurgle. Path's cheeks bulge as he clamps a hoof over his mouth and starts limping as fast as he can to the side of the road.

As you walk along he reaches down and scratches you behind the ears.
"So, what Miyuki want to learn about Bigspear?"
>>577815
The first part of the day goes well enough, with the rain letting up around noon. Path continues to make progress with his studies, eventually managing to repeat the entire alphabet in order.
It's later when Irvone pokes his head out.
"If I may be so bold… why do you take his health so seriously? Most would be content to work him to death, but you…"

"It's just, I don't think I've ever seen someone so defeated that they think giving themselves up is their best option in life. I feel a good bit a pity and a deal of remorse for having him broken him that hard, so much so that he offered himself as property for a smidgen of mercy. I know he shoulda gotten worse, but if I, we, can help him, I can't deny that."

He nods thoughtfully at this, eying back into his cart where Path presumably is.
"Indeed. I've never seen anyone like him before; I think he was broken long before he showed up here. Considering that he did not actually harm anyone or anything…
Regardless, I find myself impressed by your compassion; few would have spared a bandit enough of a second glance to realize how defeated he truly is. I think you can do much good for him."
>>577821
He smiles fondly down at you.
"Miyuki pony very pretty; very lovely face, beautiful eyes. Wide, child-bearing hips too.
Also strong, very strong; fight good, fight hard. Know how to hit, how to win. Yet also have sense of justice; know when to strike and when to hold back.
And Miyuki strong-willed; not bend to others easily. Do things because you want to, not because they want them. If you not wanted to be my pet, could have busted my jaw and walked away."
He leans down and nuzzles your cheek.
"But Miyuki pony chose to stay."

Poor little Pup was wrapped in so many chains when I managed to pull him in that all that was visible was his head and his wings. After a lifetime of being tossed around, to wind up as close to a cat's toy like that didn't help."

"Yes, I fight hard, and I am strong, a bit pretty too now that you point it out." I blush as I held my head high and follow him.
"But wide-child-bearing hips?" I scrucnh.

He chuckles and waves his talons dismissively.
"Ah, I simply could not abide such a sharp mind as his remaining ignorant; I simply had to act!
Though… perhaps you did overdo it just a tad."
>>577833
He laughs and pats your back.
"Yes. Good cushioning too."
He gives your rump a quick squeeze.
"Lots of fun to hold. Ah, here we are!"
He leaves your side to brace himself against a large wagon clearly stuck in the mud.
"Now, Miyuki pony watch me work, yes?"
He chuckles and waves his talons dismissively.

I squeek as he squeeze it and just look angry at him.
"Hey, come on. You squeezed me a lot when we are sleeping back then so focus on your work."
"Also… holding lots of fun?" I just raise an eyebrow.
As he ask if I am going to watch him work, I just raise my head and act snooty.
"It is your task, my task is to guard not to help you in anything… baka."

There seems to be a bit of a holdup; one of the wagons ahead busted an axle when a wheel got caught in the mud.
>>577840
He chuckles, a glint flashing through his eyes…
And then he's straining against the cart, flexing every single muscle in his body as hard as they can flex as he slowly lifts the cart out of the mud, actually holding it up in the air for a moment before gently setting it down, the rainwater on his fur highlighting every curve and bulge as his muscles ripple beneath his skin.

Well, Tosa was fixing a cart, but it just collapsed while she was still under it.
Miyuki is with Bigspear, watching him dislodge a cart from the mud (It's a rainy day today.)

With your help, it's not long before the axle gets replaced.
"Well, you have my thanks for your help. Here, I'm a merchant of various cookingware; maybe I could let you take a look through my stock as thanks."
>>577870
I assume you're meaning Miyuki and Bigspear? Bigspear clearly didn't need any help, lifting the cart into the air before setting it back down.

With a ground-shaking crash, the trees burst open to reveal a hulking monstrosity of glowing blue flesh and fur, an enormous maw filled with razor-sharp teeth as large as blades lifting to roar to the sky as it bears down on the caravan, countless spots of light dotting it's hide.

This isn't Dragonball Z, mare; striking a pose then leaping at the charging Ursan does not grant you magic powers, it just gets you trampled.

Dodging when your instincts(aka me) tell you to dodge would be a good idea. As it is, the collision causes you to enfeeble yourself!
You are now helpless and Enfeebled. You cannot get up without help.

"It goes back to another one of his lessons. You must cast away your fears of other's judgments and do as you wish. You don't want him taking you in full view of others? Show him he can't make you."

He groans softly as you work, panting lightly as you work away at him, obviously fighting against the urge to thrust back gently against you.
"So show I am wrong… by doing same to me? Not seeing your point."

A strange noise starts up as you continue. Is he… whining? Whatever he's doing, the fully-erect shaft dribbling precum shows that he's enjoying it, whether he wants to or not.
"F-fucking… magic spears… n-no fair…"
>>578533
He gasps as you make her be more forceful, shuddering as another batch of pre splatters onto the ground. He whines, pinning his ears back as he starts gently humping the spear penetrating him.

Bigspear groans and rises to his feet, a little unsteady in his stance.
"Point made. No more public sex."
He leans down and takes Miyuki by the collar, dragging her over to him and whispering in her ear.
"But I think tonight, I'll invite my friends over.~"
His voice carries a dangerous undertone.

Luckily, the wagon was out of the way of the fighting. However, it was pretty close by, and is peppered with debris. As you approach the wagon, Irvone pokes his head out.
"Ah, Tosa! Good to see you are alright!"

The boy's in here. Poor lad's been worried sick about you. Could hardly focus on his lessons!"

The moment you touch him, he looks up with wide eyes, then leaps at you before you can react, wordlessly hugging you as he buries his head against your chest.
"To be fair, it is a valid concern. How many guards did we lose this time?"

"You missed me?" I laugh with Path.
"Out of all us, you're looking at the most banged up one. I might sleep like a log tonight, but don't go off and get my measurements just yet."

"As for you, Open Path, I'm going to count on you to make sure you escort this cart and any people away from danger. I'm fairly certain that they'll shy away from arming you and letting you come with, but they won't think twice if you offer them a hoof out of danger."

Path bites his lip and nods, his grip loosening, though he continues to nuzzle your side affectionately.
"Of course, of course!" Irvone proclaims proudly. "Though I must admit, he drinks it up like dry parchment draws water. He may lack the knowledge, but he has the heart and drive of a good pony."

Barely has he started before he pulls away, his face absolutely crimson.
