A New Dining Experience
Tomo - Quirkylynx
Amity - Silmellon
Setting:
Midwinter of 1699
Its getting late, locals are finishing up their dinners and bars are filled with youthful horses.
The streets are still speckled with groups of horses enjoying a night on the town, but many of the city lights are beginning to dim.

Tomo | Tie Tomo heaved the last box onto the loading counter, sighing with relief. Ten boxes were lined upon the stone slab, each packed lovingly and securely. Found within were precious stones, metals, and gems wrapped in soft cloth to protect them from damage.
“Thanks Tomo,” said the unicorn as he looked over the boxes, floating a checklist and pen beside him “everything seems to be in order, as usual! The local artists will appreciate this shipment, as will those flamboyant Aodhians.” Chuckling, he turned to face her. “You should take a break after all that traveling, there’s a new restaurant that opened up here in Sterling. I hear it’s pretty good …” A knowing smile crept upon his lips.
A small, excited gasp escaped the rounded unicorn, smiling bright at her customer. “Oh, how exciting! Where’s it at?” she asked eagerly, her ears pricking forward to soak in the direction. A growl and gurgle rumbled from her stomach as the Sterling citizen explained where the new establishment had cropped up.
“So it’s near the Croaking Toad?”
“Just a couple of shops down, I believe. Now hurry up, I know you’re itching to eat and I have unpacking to do.”
She laughed heartily, there was no need to tell her twice. “Alright! See ya tomorrow!” she shouted behind her as she hurried out the door, turning her attention to the street just in time to see the split colored mare in front of her just before their collision.
“Oh no, I’m sorry!” she cried upon impact.
