vivalaWho: Shu, cows, and you
What: Udder cowtastrophe
Where: Farmlands outside of Elysium
When: Mid-month
Warnings: Animal cruelty
As the farmer plods away to resume tending his fields, Shu shakes her head with a frown and addresses her companion. "That is the fourth farmer this week to report a missing herd of livestock. These aren't small losses, either. It is unimaginable that they simply vanished off the face of the earth."
Not coincidentally, Shu is currently seated atop her own oxen, who is placidly chewing on some grains underfoot.
"Let us examine the pasture. He said there were numerous markings he could not make sense of. These disappearances will be catastrophic for the small farmer if they continue and have a lasting ripple effect on the supply chain of meat. Not just for the Corsairs."
She nudges He Sheng with her ankles.

The surprise of being hit with a squeaky hammer is probably enough to momentarily stun them into inaction, though, at the very least, which suffices to permanently stun them into inaction as the driver freezes solid.
Three trailers down, most soldiers incapacitated and one last soldier thrown into the air by an ornery cow. Shu dashes over to the weighted net and, with a significant effort, heaves it up high enough that there is an opening for the captured cows to escape. Before long, the stream of cattle are stampeding on their way down through the plains again.
"...Do you think cattle have a honing sense?"
Shu approaches Link's stolen trailer as the white ox lows and nudges at her. It appears it wants them to follow.

But even if they can't, the white ox is clearly something special. So Link shifts the stolen trailer into gear, and moves to follow wherever the ox wants them to go.
