Who: Emet-Selch & honse hunters??
Status: Open (one closed prompt)
Where: Eltrut I guess?
What: Emet-Selch and Hythlodaeus set the first honse free so that it leads them to the second bounty. Will they find the honse's maker??
Warnings: It's a grotesque-looking horse

(Will match format)


1. Tracking the beast [MANTA bounty] (OPEN TO ALL)

Thanks to some help from Shadow and others, they manage to loose the honse on Eltrut to see if it really will go for its supposed 'mate'. Almost immediately, the beast gallops off on its cursed hand-feet and Emet-Selch is forced to take to the air and glide after it to keep up.

The dull slapping of skin against stone isn't enough to stop numerous locals from being nearly bowled over by the horse as it charges through the port town. Yes, Emet-Selch COULD have dropped it off in a more secluded area but any longer and he feels like the thing might have sunk the Phantom Moon...

It would be terribly hard to miss their progress through the town and then subsequently into the forest. This time, Emet-Selch plans to slay both beasts regardless of whether they manage to lead him to the perpetrator or not.

2. Honse Wrangling (CLOSED TO FREMINET, backdated to beginning of the month)

Even before the appearance of the second abomination, the 'horse' is proving to be a challenging creature to manage. Emet-Selch had been forced to use his magecraft to get the creature off the ship and on to the island to begin with but then he had been forced to contain it within a magic barrier after multiple rampages. The boarfolk who had resettled on their island - normally more than happy to test their strength against an opponent - had begun voicing complaints to him after several of their clan were injured.

"Are you very sure you can handle this?" he tersely asks Freminet. He knows the younger man offered to help look after it, but Emet-Selch cannot help but think that they should have put down the creature after all. For the umpteenth time, he silently berates Hythlodaeus' insistence on keeping it.

All Freminet wanted to do was to take care of the 'horse'. In his mind, animals were always much easier to talk to compared to humans. Although, when people had warned him just how strong the creature was, he hesitated. He wanted to give the animal the benefit of the doubt as he knew what it was like. People often didn't take him seriously due to his passive nature. (But he supposed it's also because of that; nobody would ever suspect a thing from him.)

"Not really but I can give it a try." He mumbled out. Now that he was looking at the creature, it certainly was...an interesting sight to behold.

The horse-thing still has plenty of room to run within Emet-Selch's magicked dome but right now it's quite upset with it. It kicks - slaps? - the barrier with its rear feet (er, hands) and Emet-Selch grimaces.

"Well, as I said, I'm not going to leave you alone with it unless I'm sure you can handle it. Are you ready?"
