reins.
    Kroanette took hold of Lucky’s harness and slowly guided him around towards the road, the horse trotting along next to her while pulling the caravan with no trouble. They made their way over onto the dirt road before Kroanette and Lucky started galloping at a faster pace, the wheels of the caravan rolling along the ground more loudly now as the travelers took off on their journey once again.
    Inside the cabin Specca sat down at the table along with Luna and Falla, all of them breathing out in relief while Squeak and Daniel sat down on the bed together. The ant girl squeaked and held an arm around her bosom with unease while Daniel sighed and dropped back down onto the bed.
    “That was… weird,” he summed up.
    “Gee, you think?” Falla quipped.
    “Was it rude to leave her all alone like that?” Luna asked worriedly.
    “She’ll be fine,” Daniel said rubbing his eyes tiredly. “She knows how to use magic to take care of herself after all.”
    “Alright then,” Specca said before she opened Daniel’s monster book on the table and flipped to a new page. “I suppose I’d better add an entry regarding fairies in here.”
    “Make sure to note they’re crazy,” Falla mentioned.
    “And so cute and tiny,” Luna giggled.
    “And obsessed with breasts for some reason,” Specca added with a shrug.
    “At least they’re nice, I think,” Daniel spoke up while staring at the roof above him. “I wonder if they could possibly be allies with mankind, provided Pip wasn’t the last of her kind.”
    “I don’t know, Daniel,” Specca said while diligently writing in the guidebook. “They are magically gifted and appear friendly. However they also seem to be hard to speak to and keep a conversation focused with. Perhaps they could be considered allies, if not at least safe monsters to approach, however I don’t think they would be a good candidate for our quota.”
    “But don’t worry, Daniel,” Luna added with a bright smile. “You still have us who can help you.”
    “Yeah,” Falla dryly agreed. “By the way, I hope you have a great opening speech lined up. You know, something powerful but quick since everyone in the grove is going to be laughing at you in a matter of minutes.”
    “Falla,” Specca snapped at her. “Have faith in Daniel. He convinced an alpha witch to listen to him, he persuaded an ant girl queen to give this a chance. He can do this.”
    “He only got that witch’s approval by fucking all of you,” Falla remarked, earning a harsh glare from Specca and Squeak that caused her to smile nervously and hold her hands up defensively. “I mean, by making love to you all. And even so she’s not completely on your side with this. What’s Daniel going to do to get my sisters to stop laughing at him? Do me and Luna right in front of all of them as proof of his beliefs?”
    Falla and Luna blinked, looked to each other, and then to Daniel with wonder as the boy was just staring at them with a raised eyebrow.
    “Daniel,” Falla purred with a sly smile forming. “Is that your plan to convince our race of your words? Are we going to be your way of proving yourself to our kind?”
    “Really?” Luna asked eagerly. “You’re going to do both of us then?”
    “No!” Daniel quickly said while holding his hands out and shaking his head. “That wasn’t the plan at all!”
    “Then what is your plan for talking to them?” Falla asked.
    “Just that, to talk to them.”
    “Doing us would be a lot more effective,” Falla reasoned with a sultry smile. “I mean, it’s all in the name of peaceful coexistence, right?”
    “Falla, he said no,” Specca stated firmly. “Need we remind you that you cannot force or trick Daniel into doing anything with you against his wishes? That would be considered rape .”
    Luna jumped with a squeak and held her hands over her mouth while Falla merely rolled her eyes and looked away from them.
    “I’m sorry,” Luna whimpered. “I didn’t mean to
