Tamori Taka: A candid discussion of aspiration and victory

"Haha, you're a natural! You were born with a horse between your legs!" Keneya commended Taka, "You'd fit in with the Unicorn, for sure."

Taka beamed at the ecomplements, "Oh, it's not all that. Kaze is an incredibly intelligent horse, I didn't need to do much."

"True enough," Keneya returned, feeding her steed an apple, "Kaze is a fine companion. You'd likely fare poorer with a more temperamental beast, but you have the makings of a fine horsewoman."

"I hope that someday I might possess a horse, that I could ride every day. I know that as a dragon, I can never own one as fine as Kaze, but I'd love simply to touch on that freedom again and forever."

"A fine aspiration. I know I could never part from Kaze, it is a special bond. Now, about your bullies. You are tougher than you think. If you don't rise to their taunts and assaults, they will tire of it. If you deny them their perverted thrills, you will defeat them. Simply retreat to a place of happiness and walk calmly away."
