Traveling for Christmas

The Christmas holidays were approaching, and you had planned a visit to Brandy’s family herd. Now that you were engaged, there was no risk that one of her cousins or half-siblings might have their way with you.

Regardless, you and Marine had been practising with the equine strap-on, building up to taking the full length while it was strapped to Brandy. You had also been inviting Nessus into the bedroom and taking his real equine cock most of the way.

You had booked a small holiday house in the New Forest, close to where Bandy’s family lived. Centaurs had historic land access to the land of the New Forest, where they were able to roam with caravans. As part of your engagement, it would be tradition for the family of the herd lead to build the new herd lead a caravan of their own. On top of that you were interested in expecting centaur Christmas traditions.

The drive down was long, but thanks to Marnie’s Pelagic benefits, you had been able to get a car with both foot and hand controls so she could share the driving. Brandy was just a passenger in her centaur box.

While you were traveling Marnie explained what merfolk do around Christmas. Pelagic merfolk don’t celebrate Christmas; Christianity is rare in their society, as it didn’t get far into the ocean. Neritic merfolk do celebrate it in some regions. Merfolk believe that Jesus was a Neritic merman who was living under human suppression. They believe walking on water was just an advanced swimming technique where you're almost fully out of the water, just powered by your fluke. His tail was hidden by robes or edited out by the human writers of the Bible. That charming fish into nets and turning water into wine are examples of merfolk magic. That coming back from the dead, both he and Lasaras were humans, not understanding merfolk regeneration. Merfolk, at the time, lived in secret after the human expansion and invasion of sea people/merfolk caused the Bronze Age collapse.

Most merfolk celebrate the winter solstice, when the abyssal merfolk have the longest night to come to the surface, and all three species meet in open water to mate and exchange gifts and knowledge. Ensuring culture and genes stay diverse but compatible.
