The Kurupi's Curse Chapter 2
Lust for gold I'm told can bring strife into one's life especially when one's cache is beyond obscene Lest we forget the true prize lies within the heart Look into it and you will find the kiss of loves priceless exist
Eventually, the Chaco's finished the biggest vault to exalt its nation A build unlike any ever seen by human or diety alike Local masons did strike to the eyes delight intricate designs inlay into hand-picked marble stone to be one of a kind it's mold unprecedented for it's time Sublime to the sight golden cornices replete with jewels seated amidst ornate silver plated pillars that would reflect light coming from shafts to illuminate the vault bright as day Nary a shadow did show for they were all castaway
As Chaco's fortune grew to ridiculous proportions mounds of gold covered every transome and dormer twas more than a king's ransom piled into every corner
The Kurupi's seed Taurine happily moved into the vault Seeing as she spent her prior life outside with naught No homes to speak for the centaur's breed it twas only trees they used for cover when the weather it did impede
Lest we not forget to stress this particular steed's lust for gold couldn't be consoled
Greed ran from within her father's line so this shrine to the almighty dime was quite befitting for this equine She tracked every cent ensuring no dents for outgoing expense was too immense and eyed the accounts bottom line
Equipped with her enchanted time spear it was clear this cashier ensured no "souvenirs" disappeared without the King's clear
To find a loyal employ like this wasn't just divine for a secret Taurine kept that at times made her wept She was in love with the King with all of her being
Now Marco was well known for having looks that well... were easy to the eye for many a female couldn't deny Yes he could have his pick from the local tiff but he did insist upon propriety towards his own society so he stayed alone until one he could call his own was shown to his face from the God's good grace
But Taurine surmised in her own mind how could a diety as ugly as she ever be loved by one of beautiful as he
So she loved Marco from afar and diverted her mind to making use of the excessive gold in the Chaco hold
This equine was capable of divine design in her golden shrine she did entwine rare metals into ornate gold plated mirrors to sell In hopes of raising her status in the Chaco's lattice for skilled craftsmen were held in high esteem on top of their societies cream
Once the town spied her inspired designs and word got around of her derives She was approached by the Gran Chaco's counsel represent to spare no cent and make one for the King on this his upcoming birthday
She was ecstatic to oblige cause now the King might see her in a different light Not just paid might to keep the hold tight but, one that is worthy of love, a hidden dove shoved in monstrous physique that she feared would keep her alone till the day of her final sleep
She hammered away for days at the forge even putting sleeping away Utilizing huge quantities of gold, platinum, and silver so large its scale to no avail it grew five times the Kings own size No deter led her astray from making the most ornate strike ever conceived by the mind of human or diety alike
It looked as if woven in entwined platinum threads with oodles of embedded jewels to brighten the light A gilded eagles nest mounted on top for it was the Chaco's crest at the counsel's behest Then just one more finishing touch...
