Journey to Duststar (part 2).

The beasts pulling the carriage were called Brunx (singular and plural). They were magical beasts that had the same physique as horses but they were bigger, stronger, and faster.

Unlike horses, the Brunx were omnivores that possessed razor-sharp teeth and short black manes that could instantly turn to hard spikes at will.

Their thick black skin, coupled with twice the endurance of a donkey and twice the speed of a horse made them the perfect beasts for long-distance journeys.

'No wonder the journey reduced from 5 to 3. They are bulls on steroids, if not more.' Blake thought as he took a closer look at the brunx.

Blake turned to the carriage, noticing that it wasn't just ordinary stagecoaches. The black stagecoach was on the same level as that of Taliesin. It was fitted with offensive and defensive arrays, as well as detection and sensory arrays and many more to keep the passengers aware of their surroundings.
