Picks you up and takes you out to see her Da

"So you're up and about, wizardling," Praxilla's father says.

"Sir," you say, wincing with pain while Praxilla holds you in her arms, wrapped in the rough blanket. It's a little warmer here outside, where she's holding you on the sunny side of the little barn where Maurippos cared for your injuries.

Her father is a centaur in early middle age, with pale golden hair, a short beard, and the muscles of a blacksmith or carpenter. He has bruises himself, and a few cuts on his arms and face.

"You're a sight," he says. "Only half of those are love bruises, I reckon."

"Da!" Praxilla protests.

Her father responds in a mocking tone, "Da, he followed me home, can I keep him?" He snorts. "You had better keep him if you want any help with your wizard spawn, girl. And here I thought you were heading for a right spanking by swishing your tail under the Wizard's nose, and what mischief do you get up to? You get hobbled, and this young wizardling steps up to lead you home. But what did you do next? You tricked him into eating Love Grass and as if you weren't already on heat, you ate it yourself, and somehow managed to have him breed you! You're as much the swish-tail as your mother, but at least she had some sense not to tempt fate!"

"My mother isn't a swish-tail, Da, my mother is the mare that every stallion wishes they could own, and never ever can!"

"So go to your mother, Praxie, and see if she has any time for her fuckwit daughter or if she's too busy flipping up her rump for her new boy toy! I helped you beat off those young ruffians and this is the thanks I get?"

It's more than a little uncomfortable being held in Praxilla's arms as she has just this side of a spitting match argument with her father over you.

"Please, sir, please, Praxilla, I'm not ready to travel," you tell them. "I'm still hurting all over."

You have Ambition -1, Bravery 0, Cunning +2, Diligence +2.

You have a FAVOR from Miss Wormwood, and a FRIEND, Aurelia Sterling, your Enchantments teacher.

You are in PATERNITY with Praxilla the Centauress. See Safe/Unsafe sex and PREGNANCY SCAREs making Praxilla your HANGER-ON.

You have 8 XP and may apply ADVANCEMENT. Advancement might be a way to shape Eric's path forward, such as choosing Maurippos as FRIEND with FAVOR to anchor a start with Care of Magical Creatures, or reveal some underlying plot (peril in the Weirding Woods? bewitched centaurs?) which Eric is well-placed to deal with, and add a FRIEND and FAVOR to pursue that.

Roll +Diligence (+2 DILIGENCE, -1 CONSEQUENCE) to ENCOUNTER Praxilla's father and ask for his help resting up: 2d6+1 = 9.

On a 7-9, he offers a trade of some sort (include promising him a GOAL), or describe in character how you get his help, or else he agrees, but DEAL WITH YOUR HANGER-ON.
