Swordpony — Tinker


From the journal of Sworn Shield:

"I met two travelers on the road today, a father and a son. While their long ears and distinct lack of soul marks left me on edge, the two donkeys turned out to be fine, trustworthy fellows, as well as excellent companions for the road. Imagine my delight when I found that they are tinkers on the road to Everfree! They have offered to take me with them, so long as I am able to accompany them for a time and provide protection for their cart. It is a fine offer, one that will grant me a chance to take in much of this beautiful land.
Equal parts traveling merchant and tool repair, the ubiquitous tinker is a common sight in Equestria. They travel far and wide, a jack-of-all-trades bringing wares and services to the far corners of the Realm, and the two I now travel with are no different. It should come as no surprise that all manner of myths and fairy tales surround their line of work, but such is the nature of superstitious ponies. I buy into none of it, no matter how extraordinary these individuals are. Still, seeing the father teaching his son has left me with the feeling that I have witnessed something truly special… and secret to all but a rare few.
I must end this entry early, for I have offered to make the meal for tonight. I am thinking carrot stew will suffice. After all, a tinker's debt is always paid, and my debt is much the same."
