Training montage, day 5

The next morning, you wake up before Brighid. You lavish her breasts with kisses and tease her nipples with your tongue until they start to stand stiffly at attention, then very slowly and carefully disengage yourself from her embrace, moving behind her, lightly brushing her tail to the side, and starting to lick at her pussy, running your tongue all over her chubby outer lips just beginning to part with her arousal. As her cream begins to flow and her lower lips blossom open, you start to lap at her opening and very lightly brush your thumb across her clit, still partially covered by its hood. Soon she begins to shift and moan softly in her sleep, then the muscles of her rump begin to flex and she starts to rock backwards towards you. You carefully manage her arousal, steadily pushing her up towards the breaking point while trying to keep her from waking for as long as possible; eventually, however, she jolts and then moans loudly, her hands grabbing the padded surface of the bed as she looks back over her shoulder at you. She cries out wordlessly and begins to convulse around your tongue at seeing you knelt behind her. You make use of your new proficiency at cunnilingus to maintain her at a high arousal level and then push her over again twice more before she finally begs you to stop. Once you do, she stands up, turns around, and kneels before you, placing your cock between her massive breasts and gives you a combo titfuck and blowjob until you finally explode in her mouth.

You both clean up, eat a quick breakfast of fruits and dried meat, then head off to the practice grounds.

Congratulations! You have reached level 17 in Sex.
Congratulations! You have reached levels 8 and 9 in Cunnilingus.

Returning to the practice field, Brighid adds yet another new wrinkle to your training. In addition to blasting the boulder with Burning Barrage, attacking her or a thrown rock with Flame Jet, and dodging her attacks on you, she wants you to attack her with a spear as well. She brings out a short padded training spear that you can wield in one hand and gives you a short refresher course on basic spear techniques, the dives right into the lesson. The training is grueling and exhausting, both physically and mentally, but the number of Skill level prompts you receive when you break for lunch in the early afternoon is proof of its effectiveness, and you can feel yourself growing much more comfortable and confident in combat.

Congratulations! You have reached levels 24 through 26 in Fire Magic. You are now an Apprentice in Fire Magic; in addition to benefits from previous ranks, your fire magic spells have their cast times and cooldowns reduced by a percentage equal to the difference between their level and your level in Fire Magic.
Congratulations! You have reached levels 4 and 5 in Evasion. You are now a Novice in Evasion; successfully evading takes now takes 10% less Concentration and Stamina.
Congratulations! You have reached levels 8 through 10 in Light Armor. You are now an Initiate in Light Armor; in addition to benefits from previous ranks, your encumbrance from wearing light armor is decreased by 50%.

You have earned 1,550 experience for reaching Apprentice rank in Fire Magic, Initiate rank in Light Armor, and Novice rank in Evasion.

Congratulations! You have learned the spell Kindle the Hearth-Flame.

Kindle the Hearth-Flame: Fire Magic, level 25. Kindle the spark of the heavenly hearth fire which the goodly powers granted to the ancient peoples of the world to protect and serve them. While this spell is active, you gain a +10% bonus to your Agility, Speed, Senses, Charisma, and Attractiveness Attributes, deal +50% more fire damage, and gain +25% resistance to fire and cold damage. This spell may only be used upon yourself and those with close association to goodly Powers of fire. Cost: 98 Concentration [200 base, -27% Skill level -24% Charisma]. Duration: Concentration. Cast time: 30 seconds.

Your new spell is a powerful buff for yourself and probably for Brighid, but the cost is nearly half of your total Concentration -- for now. Soon enough, though, it will be easy to maintain on yourself and your Paladin of the Three Flames Companion, and eventually it will be free and thus essentially permanent. A truly magnificent spell, you decide with satisfaction.

You take a break for a quick meal, then head back into the village to talk to Ailis, both about your Dungeon loot and about possible training. She greets you both with a carefully neutral face when Brighid knocks at her door carrying a pile of loot, but once you are inside and she closes the door behind you, she gives you both a hug and a kiss. You quickly explain your Dungeon trip to her and show her the unidentified items and she uses her Item Lore Skill to determine some, if not quite all, of their properties.

You have found: Sun-ray Spear. Damage: 8-14. Reach: Extended. Attack Speed: Slow. Rarity: Epic. Item Quality: Exquisite.

The very first thing you do once Ailis is done identifying the loot as best she can is to scoop up the Handy Haversack into your arms and claim it as your share of the spoils. Then you sling it over your shoulder and hit Accept on the prompt which follows. Brighid laughingly insists that you take the Ring of Virility as well, at least for now. With a more serious expression, she also insists that you wear the Amulet of Non-Detection to help you remain un-noticed by your potential enemies until you grow strong. For her part, she asks for the Band of Resilience, and you see no reason to deny it to her. Neither of you want the heavy armor and she suggests giving it to Gerwyn to sell. The spear, shield, and staff provoke quite a bit of discussion between the pair of you. Either of you could use any of them, but they're all a little awkward in their own way. The spear is obviously exceptionally powerful, but Brighid has no levels in the Spear Skill and for you, wielding a melee weapon takes away a hand to use Flame Jet from, plus your 7 levels in the Skill is not that much better than none. Eventually you decide that you may as well keep it and use it when you need a weapon; you have to admit that there were times in the Dungeon where you really would have liked to just be able to stab things. The staff has the same problem for you, except that you really only have one spell to concentrate on for long periods of time and it will eventually be cheap enough not to care about, while Brighid would not be able to wield her glaive as effectively while holding the staff. You both agree to give it to Ailis as payment for the identification and future services. Finally, Brighid decides to take the shield for herself, for now. She has no levels in Shields, and it will also interfere with her glaive, but since it is strapped on rather than needing to be held, it isn't as big an impediment, and any additional protection while she's guarding you is something she considers worth at least looking into. She reserves the right to sell or trade it in the future, though.

Once you split the loot, Brighid gives you a kiss and heads back to the forge to get some work done on her own. You tell her that you'll meet her back at home in a couple hours and help her out.

Once Brighid leaves, you ask Ailis if she would teach you any of her lore or magical Skills. Pleased by the gift of the staff, she offers to instruct you in Magical Theory and Beast Magic, and to loan you several books on history, lore, and other topics. The books will take a while to read, but should get you started in several new Skills. You thank her and store the books in your Handy Haversack, then turn your attention to her lesson. First she teaches you more about the known rules and proposed theories behind magic in the Realms, going into more technical detail about many of the questions Brighid answered for you a few days ago. Then, once she is a little more confident of your basic understanding of the subject, she begins explaining Beast Magic to you. To hear her speak, Beast Magic is a way to draw out, enhance, and alter the inner animal in every living thing. Many times the 'inner animal' and the actual creature is the same thing, so Beast Magic allows for the partial and complete transformation of one creature into another, but it also has the ability to subtly alter the way creatures act and think, and even the fusion of multiple animals into one or the creation of entirely new creatures. She also makes pains to point out that people are animals too, as far as Beast Magic is concerned; there are very few spells which will not work on sapient beings, although such beings tend to have more natural resistance to the spells than mere animals or low-level monsters.

Once she covers what Beast Magic is, she gives you some examples of what it can do. She casts a spell on you with your permission and after a brief sensation of nausea and disorientation, you blink your eyes and realize that your vision is suddenly incredibly sharper and your sense of smell much more powerful and discriminatory. She explains that she gave you the vision of an eagle and a wolf's sense of smell, without altering your physical appearance. She lets her concentration on the vision spell lapse and, again after a brief period of discomfort, your eyesight returns to normal. Satisfied with your progress for the day, she sends you off to return home to her daughter. Right as you are about to open her door, though, she places a hand on your shoulder, whispers in your ear, "Here is a little gift to my daughter from me," and casts another spell on you. You feel your cock harden in your pants and your blood begins to burn with a need to fuck. You start to turn on Ailis, but she laughs and pushes you out her door, closing it behind you. You hurry home to Brighid, massive bulge leading the way.

Congratulations! You have reached levels 6 through 9 in Magical Theory.
Congratulations! You have reached level 1 in Beast Magic. You are now Unskilled in Beast Magic.

Congratulations! You have learned the Minor Shift spell.

Minor Shift: Beast Magic, level 1. Changes one aspect of the target into that of another creature. This cannot grant new senses, attacks, Traits, or Abilities, but can alter appearance and enhance or deaden existing senses, attacks, Traits, or Abilities. Cost: 10 Concentration. Duration: Concentration, up to 6 minutes and 3 seconds [base 300 seconds +1% Skill level +20% Intuition]. Casting Time: 0.25 seconds.

By the time you return home, you are desperately horny and you are barely able to bring yourself to wait while Brighid stuffs the object she's working on into the barrel of sand to cool before you drag her inside, push her down onto the bed, drop your trousers, grab her tail in one fist, and ram yourself hard into her cunt. She is only slightly aroused on your first thrust, probably from your manhandling of her, but quickly gets into it and is soon loudly begging you to mount her and take her. She babbles about how much bigger you feel inside her and cums around your cock, crying out your name in pleasure. The sensations overwhelm you and you start to fuck her harder and faster before ramming yourself hard into her and exploding inside her. As soon as your vision clears, you begin to move again, to Brighid's surprise and immediately-announced pleasure. You begin to spank her rippling buttocks with the hand which is not clutched tightly around her tail and she starts partially lifting up off of the bed to lunge backwards against you, **** for the hard contact of your hand and pelvis against her ass and your enlarged cock driving deeply inside of her. She orgasms again and again as you rain blows on her muscular ass and pound her pussy mercilessly, then you feel your cock harden even further and Brighid howls out about you growing bigger inside her. Your next thrust feels different as the base of your shaft passes her stretched pussy lips; Brighid shrieks in mixed pain and pleasure and cums hard. The resistance around your cock is incredible when you try to pull out again. Instinctively, you switch to short, extremely rapid-fire thrusts as you feel your balls begin to churn and contract and you once more ram all the way inside your little mare, the tip of your cock pushing hard against an obstruction deep inside of her as you fill her again with sticky white ropes of your seed.

You collapse at last over Brighid's back, heaving with exertion, but when you try to pull out of her you find that the resistance is still there; you're stuck inside her. She moans and twitches as you attempt to pull out, begging you to wait, to stop. You settle back inside her, still rock-hard but your blood no longer boiling, and kiss her back in apology. After a few minutes, you feel your cock beginning to soften and tentatively attempt to dismount her again. This time you slip out easily and you realize, looking down at yourself, that Ailis had given you a canine dick, complete with huge knot. You shake your head and move around to Brighid's head, directing her mouth to your cock and telling her to clean off Ailis's present to her. She complies readily, slurping your tapered dick into her mouth and cleaning you of all of your mixed juices with her tongue and lips. Her hand begins to stroke you and you growl slightly, holding her head down and beginning to thrust into her mouth in response. It takes a little longer this time, but between Ailis's spell and your new Ring of Virility, you soon reach your peak again, pulling out of the redheaded Paladin's mouth just as you start to cum and spraying her face, hair, and leather apron with your cum. You push back into her mouth and she cleans you again, then you pull out and get your pants back on before you lose all remaining daylight. Brighid rises from her bed and tells you with obvious arousal still in her voice, "Remind me to thank my mother properly at some point."

Congratulations! You have reached levels 18 and 19 in Sex.
Congratulations! You have reached level 8 in Dominance.

Once you both recover from your afternoon delight, you join Brighid back outside in the forge, although you forbid her from cleaning your cum off of her. She begins to teach you how to craft chain mail, which is an extremely simple but equally tedious process involving heating a thin metal rod, severing a length of it with a wedge like you did with arrowheads, then hammering the ring into a circle around an already-existing ring. As simple as it is, you pick it up quickly, and although again your work is nowhere near as quick or as good as Brighid's, you manage to produce a fair sized square of linked steel chain by the time the sun sets. Brighid inspects your work and gives it her figurative stamp of approval, taking it and setting it on a metal shelf to be added to other scraps of mail to make a true piece of armor at some point in the future. Once all the tools and protective garments are put away, you lead her back into the house and wash her with a rag, carefully cleaning all of your spend off of her. You try your own hand at 'cooking'; although you only make a few simple sandwiches, it seems to count for the purposes of learning the Skill. Taking the sandwiches to her, you feed her from your hand, interspersing bites of food with tender, loving kisses. Once you've both eaten, you pull her down into bed with you and cuddle up for the night.
