“A most interesting method of hunting me,” the voice of unicorn entered her mind and she turned to see a stallion in his prime glowing with power. “I am curious to see what your next step will be.”
“Negotiation,” Marina was under no illusion that the unicorn was not ready to fight her, the horn glowed with power and she could feel it probing her, she wasn’t sure what exactly he was looking for but the searching nature of the magic was clear. “I am Marina and I need a unicorn horn to stop the army of Dreze.”
“I am very attached to my horn as you can see and how does a war between people concern me, it is hardly the first war or the last war your species will manage.”
“Unicorns are creatures of good, you would put an end to a great deal of suffering with no deaths.”
“To what end? How is your kingdom better than Dreze for me? Your kingdom has hunted my kind to near extinction in this land. Dreze’s land is much better for unicorns he fights to subdue his own people so he doesn’t have the time to send nobles out on hunts for sport.”
“I could see about ending the hunts in Dar.”
“Really!?! You swing that kind of power?” the mocking tone was clear even in telepathic communication. “Spin me another fairy tale, I will only give you what you desire after you have secured a proclamation from King Emeril ending the hunts but I doubt you are willing to wait for that to happen so I have a counter-proposal. You will replace the lives that have been lost to your hunts.”
