By horseback we ride

[Goku]

Rewards Requested

Notes/Warnings: My intent was to have Goku give the yearly weapons he's entitled to for his wealth tier to Illuvia because he does not have any need for new weapons. He hasn't claimed any in the past 3 years. If he cannot do this then fill me in and I will subtract some wealth points from my ledger.

Comments: This was a nice travel thread. I wonder why Illuvia and Goku were traveling to the Eternal Empire though.

Adventure?

Illuvia’s struggling with her horse was entertaining to read. I never considered that having strength runes on you might cause you to pull at the reins too hard!

Goku didn’t face the same challenges as he didn’t use runes all the time.

I thought this would just be a nice and relaxing thread about two friends and their horses, so the roadblock constituted an unexpected surprise. For a moment, I expected Illuvia and Goku to just use their magic and try to fight those bandits that wanted their money.

Instead, they did the reasonable thing.

I agree with Goku. There’s no shame in backing down from a fight, especially when it means to keep everyone safe!

I like Illuvia’s and Goku’s interaction. They really give me the impression of being good friends!

Enjoy your rewards!
