“I’m sure we can get you a nice docile pony,” Ann assured her friend. “Lord Donovan, where are we heading?”

“We weren’t always like this.” She answered. “There was a time where we were in the Middle Ages, like you. And there was a time where there were always wars, I guess we’ve civilized ourselves through the years, and the UnderWorld might too.” She gulped, although she wasn’t a fan of war, she would hate to see this place be crowded up with skyscrapers and apartment buildings. “We have laws that keep us together, it is why we have guns and the sort, it is what organizes us.
