> **ah hes probably being stabbed up by some bandit somewhere** thaldrin says unreasonably, no way hozay is he paying for that dumb horse. **and Heck you are right, the only reason I really came was to get some investor to mass produce it, and then I could roll around in royalties** thaldrin says explaining his evil plan > > Turning to the Guard captain that somehow came up behind thaldrin **oh yeah about that horse.** thaldrin said disrespectfully and pausing for a bit, **Do I look Like I care about your "messenger" horse?, honestly you probably have warehouses full of them** thaldrin said unplugging his drink and taking a Drink, "Look," said the Captain, "Under human law you must repay those you've wronged for the pain or damage you've caused them. I'm not even charging you with stranding him there, as he'd probably have stayed to fight anyways, but we're out a horse. We'll need to buy another one from a breeder or trainer to replace the one we lost. If you want to challenge the charges, we can go right now to the Dwarven sector and have one of their judges rule on them. I'll even accept a horse of equal quality in exchange, I just need to replace the horse." "If you can't afford it," Kel said, "I'd be happy to loan you the money so that we can go talk business. I'm about to graduate with a degree in Engineering, and would love to find a new product to produce and improve."
