The hunt concluded in a few days, and Mutt waited for Rino's surprise gift to transport all the animals they captured for the new farm. There were more than three animal couples, but none of them fit the milky criteria, much to Rino's disappointment. Then again, it couldn't be helped. He didn't expect to find cows in the forest.
The main quest wouldn't be completed until Rino brought the captured animal couples to his pens, so he had to find a way to transport them safely without risking any deaths of his precious livestock.
With Mutt and Fowler working hard on the actual quest, Rino spent a lot of time designing his first transport between provinces for long distances. He used a lot of paper to calculate the weight his new palanquin could hold and tested the strength of shadow rope tendrils the shapeshifter spectres could summon.
