"Helloooooooo? Is anyone here?" Silence. "I was told someone needed help with some minipets?" More silence. When Kari had been asked to help lead some oversized minipets into a paddock, she thought there would at least be someone there to provide some instruction. As it was, not a soul could be seen and her only indication of what to do was a single pile of rope set atop the fence of the open pen. And a wide-open field covered in fog. The rope was for the minipet? Was she supposed to go out there to find the minipet?

"Why am I bothering with this?," Kari grumbled as she waded through the tall grass and fog. For all that she'd been helping the villagers, they didn't seem to appreciate or even acknowledge her efforts. If anything, she'd been outright shunned. It made her wonder why she continued these tasks instead of trying to find a way to go back home.

She knew why. Because the villagers were the ones with the answers, and she knew it. Only through their help would she find her way home. And to do that, she needed to help them first and earn their trust.

Before she could do that. she needed to find a minipet. Luckily, a shadow appeared in the fog. Sneaking up behind it, she quietly widdened the loop on the rope. Spotting what looked to be the creature's head, she tossed the rope. It caught around the minipet's snout, but its panic at the object's sudden touch made it leap forward, cinching the rope around its neck. As the reaper held onto the rope, a howl echoed from the creature into the fog.

"A Wolf?," Kari gaped as teeth launched towards her.

RP Mechanics
There's word here of some oversized minipets that need your help wrangling them to the stables. It's up to you to try your best! If you get a few back in, you might even be rewarded for your time!

Step 1: Go out and find the pet. Out in the wide open fog, where there is only fog and then fog, there are sometimes the shapes of minipets. Roll 1d6 to see what you have to wrangle. All apex pets are 6 feet in height.

1. A basilisk - 1d6
2. A goat - 1d8
3. A wolf - 1d10
4. A spider -1d6
5. A tiger - 1d8
6. Turtle - 1d4

The pet must be carried 30 feet. You must INDIVIDUALLY ROLL seperate dice rolls as you goad the pet by dragging it along its reins. The dice you roll for it is the distance it travels. For example, if you roll a goat, you get to roll separate dice rolls of 1d8 until you cumulatively get 30 feet.

If you roll a 1 at any point the pet will run away! The only way to get it back is if you have the basilisk eye item, that will lock it into place.

gaia_star If you and your team successfully defeat it, you get paid a old saddle. It is considered a quest item. Add it to your quest item list

Rolling out of the way with the rope still clutched in her hands, she took a look at the minipet. It was a bit larger than her with scraggly, tawny fur and a wild look in its eyes. After a moment, she realized that it wasn't aggressive, just scared. It didn't know what was happening.

With that in mind, Kari positioned herself before yanking on the rope once more. This prompted the wolf to turn towards her and charge, fangs bared. Timing her jump, she was able to land on top of the wolf's back and grab hold of the rope directly around its neck. As the wolf tried to throw her off, kari wrapped the loose end of the rope around its mouth to the back of its jaw, past its sharp teeth. Having created her harness, Kari gave a sharp yank on one end to guide the beast towards the open paddock.

"I'm not trying to hurt you, I just need to take you somewhere," the ghoul grunted, keeping a tight hold on the rope.

The wolf continued trying to throw her off, but Kari was slowly succeeding in guiding it towards her destination.

"Good. Just keep going, big guy," she encouraged with a smile.

All things considered, she was making good progress. At this rate, her minipet would be safely stowed away in the pen in no time at all.

Distance Traveled: 20/30

"Woah," Kari gasped as the wolf tried to take a detour. "Sorry, fella. We're not going that way right now."

Pulling on the rope a bit more, she was grudgingly able to get the minipet back on track. Even better, she could just make out the pen in the distance.

After a quick scan, she was able to find the opening in the fence. "This way," she called out softly to the wolf, giving a small tug on the rope to coax the creature.

"Huh... Who knew wrangling minipets could be this easy. Or maybe I just lucked out with this one," Kari temporized, shutting the gate on the paddock with the wolf contained within. It had calmed down immensely once the rope was removed. In fact, it was actually quite friendly, even allowing Kari to give it a pat. "I guess you really were just afraid," she murmured with a smile.

Turning away from the fence to see if she could find someone to talk to about the minipet, she paused at the sigh of a worn saddle that she hadn't seen previously. Had this been here the whole time?

Seeing no point in just leaving it, Kari picked it up and tucked it under her arm before walking off to see if she could find someone who knew what she needed to do next.

Distance Traveled: 34/30
