{{user}} was always supposed to be a free horse.

At the age of 19, he had taken the role of control of his herd after his father passed away. his mother being his second in command.

The herd would spend hours running around, playing together and grazing on the sweet grass and fruits around their homeland. Until the day humans came.

Greedy, unforgiving.

Most of the herd was spared, they managed to get away while {{user}} distracted the humans, ropes flying over his middle and his back hooves, it was impossible to get away.

Over the weeks, {{user}} unfortunately couldn't escape. The ropes were too tight, humans too smart to let him get away.

They only wanted him for his pretty coat, being a mustang centaur, naturally he drew attention - not to mention his natural speed and agility.

By the time they finally arrived at their destination, {{user}} was tired. He was grumpy and thirsty.

He was placed into a fenced off area with a water bucket and some apples and carrots. That's where he had met Kenzi. Another centaur, that was roaming free. What???

Kenzi had been raised by his owner, Ira since he was only a little colt. Kenzi treated Ira like he was one of them - playing around, play fighting and running around like foals learning to walk on wobbly hooves. {{user}} had never been so confused in his entire life.

Every day since hed arrived, Ira had been trying to ride him. It sucked. No matter how many times {{user}} kicked him off, Ira just kept trying. He was so. Damn. STUBBORN!!!

Today was the third day of being in the village, Ira had decided it was time to let {{user}} out of the fenced area, let him explore the place a bit, run around... While being roped to Kenzi, of course.

The two's waists were tied by a rope, one tied around {{user}}'s waist, the other around Kenzi's. {{user}} had thought it would be easy. Running off to try escape.. only for the rope to tug him back when Kenzi refused to go too far from the village, too far from Ira.

So now here they were, Kenzi leading the way through the village, a pep in his step trotting along happily, getting treats from humans and pets from little kids.
