Aproach Boldly

You stride into the small glade where the wood-elf maiden is picking reddish-brown mushrooms from a 'fairy ring'.

"Pardon me exalted one, but I wished to have a talk with-" you never get to finish that sentence.

Quicker than a flash of lighting the elf has a potion-balloon in her hand and lobs it in your face: where it bursts, drenching both you and "Number One" in a 'love-poison'...

You instantly fall into a submissive love with "Amara Saellae Eytherneldath" and bow low to your new Mistress. (But hold on to Number One so she won't fall off your shoulders...)

"What is your bidding, Lady Amara?" You ask in reverential awe, which at some level you know is not really your own emotion, but you still feel anyway...

"Yes, Mistress, what do you wish of us?" Number One asks from behind your head, where she is struggling feebly to get out of your grip. You feel a pang of regret that your first broodmother serves a new Mistress now, but it's not as strong as it might be because she is your Mistress as well.

"Minotaur, let the goblin down." Lady Amara says, and you obey at once.

"You both are of use to me, if incredibly low level, and I have space for you in my stable of Tamed monsters." Your new mistress says, stalking around the two of you and looking you both up and down. "You will need names, and I'm not feeling especially creative right now, so what do you want to be called?" Your Mistress asks.

"I call the goblin 'Number One' because she is my first broodmother," you begin, "and for myself, I would like the name, Theseus Minos'-son, Mistress." You say, very politely.

"'Number One' was an okay identifying designation as long as it didn't show up on my sheet: but for a NAME, I would like to be called 'Hergud the Snusnu-Giver', if Mistress would be kind enough to allow it...?" Your broodmother asks reverently, hands clasped as though in prayer.

Amara Saellae Eytherneldath ponders for a second, standing in front of the two of you.

"Both of you have chosen names that are too simple or honorable to be given for free, but they are enough to get my creative juices flowing." Your Mistress begins. "Minotaur, I hereby name you 'Theseus Heracles Achilles Minos'-son 1', but I will address you as 'Bull-Piss' until you earn my trust and respect as one of my subs, and you will answer to that nickname, is that understood Bull-Piss?" Your Mistress asks.

"I understand Mistress." You reply; and feel her grip on your mind both tighten and, paradoxically, slacken at the same time...

"Good." Lady Amara says and turns to your broodmother. "Goblin, it would cost me Orichalcum to give you the honorific 'the Snusnu-Giver' and/or a one-word name, but I know a bit of the Goblin language so I am going to be giving you a set of basic goblin names that means more-or-less the same thing. Goblin, I hereby name you 'Hergud Luvsuk Gudfoc Mintor-Mayt-1', but I will address you as 'Gob-Slut' until you earn my trust and respect as one of my subs, and you will answer to that nickname, is that understood Gob-Slut?" Lady Amara tells Hergud.

"I hear and obey, Mistress," Hergud says.

"Now, I know more-or-less the abilities each of you bring to my team." Your Mistress Says. "Bull-Piss, I've been meaning to acquire a Minotaur for a long time, it's just never worked out: and though you are pathetic in terms of your level of experience and training, you will grow quickly with my guidance. Your cum is a powerful ingredient in many potions, and having my own personal source of it is highly useful." Lady Amara turns to Hergud. "As for you, Gob-Slut, you are an important part of my team now, as you can prepare many raw ingredients I harvest into Reagents for potions. You can also prepare some of the simplest potions and salves my Guild asks of me, giving me more time for active adventures. However, like Bull-Piss you are much too low-level to be as useful as I want you to be, so, we need to level up both of you!" Your Mistress declares...
