Soon enough, I finish descending the spiralling stairs and set foot in the lavish lobby of our mansion's imitation. Codae is right there in the middle, looking around in awe. It's not her first time coming here, but the stunning effect lasts for at least a few times. The sheer vastness and greatness of the main hall are just so overwhelming. Especially to someone from a small rural village.
But we don't exactly have time to dawdle.
I approach my lovely chieftess and show up by her side. "If this empty shell is still enough to be a wonder to you, I can't imagine how you would react to the real thing bustling with people and activity all the time."
Catching herself slightly, Codae scoffs while crossing her arms over her chest. "You mean people fucking in every corner and on every surface? Yeah, that's definitely so different from certain more amorous seasons in Beastkin villages."
Chuckling lightly, I shake my head. "There are way too many corners there for that to be possible. At least I think so…"
She offers me a cheeky grin. "I bet you can't even remember all the places you nailed your girls in."
"For your information, I vividly remember every single intimate and passionate moment I shared with any of my companions, mated or not." I squint at her firmly. "So be a good girl and don't make me put you in your place."
A slight shudder travels down Codae's frame as she nibbles on her lip, clearly considering pushing my buttons a little more. However, my hand finds her waist quicker and slides around to hold onto her side affectionately. She leans into me, her stripped tail getting a tad livelier.
This fine femme fatale might appreciate a rougher hand, but she isn't immune to hints of honest tenderness and care.
Perhaps I should focus on that today.
"Come on, we are on the clock now." I kiss her hair from the side and draw my arm back, taking hold of her palm. "I'll show you something fun."
Codae peers down at our linked fingers and decides that she likes it, guessing by the affirmative squeeze she gives my palm. I lead us up the stairs and onto the upper level. We then turn around and stroll into one of the outer wings of the spatial residence. A moment later, we arrive in front of several doors that stand out from the others.
Picking the first one, I bring us inside, shooting my precious partner an encouraging smile as we step past the doorstep. What greets us is a sizable chamber filled to the brim with various contraptions, furniture, equipment, tools, toys, and appliances. All of sexual nature, which is painfully obvious from first glance.
Welcome to the Pleasure Chambers.
"This morning, you can have anything you want, anything you might have yearned for." I spin to face Codae, pulling our hands between us. "It will be my pleasure to bring you to the heights of ecstasy."
The number of available options brings a faint trace of rosiness to the chieftess' cheeks. Searching her dazzling eyes, I find a note of excitement, desire, consideration, but also a shadow of something akin to disappointment and longing. It's deeply masked and hidden, though. I might have missed it if not for who I truly am.
Figures this might all be too much after she's been missing the real thing for a while.
Guess I'll need to put some work in if I want her to feel both comfortable and sensually delighted by such things.
Letting go of her palm, I trail my fingers up her front until they lift her chin ever so slightly. "You are taking an awfully long time to decide what you want. I'm starting to get bored. Maybe I should just choose for you instead."
She swallows slowly without responding. Yet, her entire posture is an answer on its own. This is what she prefers. What she enjoys the most.
"Well, then. I think you are quite overdressed for the occasion, don't you agree?" I raise a challenging brow at the submissive Raccoon girl.
Codae catches on immediately, taking a step back. "Yes, sir."
Keeping her eyes on mine, she disrobes before me, putting lots of effort into making it look sexy and seductive. She strikes strong and appealing poses from the sides whenever she pulls a piece off, revealing her athletic figure to the world. Freeing her chest, she leans in, letting her firm breasts hang down proudly. Sliding down her panties, she pushes out her behind, flashing me that glistening slit as she bends nearly enough to put her head between her knees.
Done with the show, Codae waits eagerly for further commands.
Noting only the black collar around her neck, I stroke my chin. "No leather belts this time? You seemed almost inseparable from the harness after putting it on for the first time."
The gorgeous woman squirms in her spot, flushing even more. "Because of that, it needs washing now and then. And it just so happens that I put it to dry recently. I'm sorry for disappointing you, sir."
Humming to myself, I walk up to the hooks on the wall and pull off a long, dark band. Codae recognises its purpose as I return to her and offers her neck willingly. With a pleasant click, I attach the leash to her collar and give it a testing tug, receiving a shiver in return.
Yanking it again, I nod my head towards the door. "Come on, now. It's time for your walk. As your owner, I've been neglecting your needs over the last weeks. That won't do."
She stares at me with wide eyes that seem to scream like this?.
"Chop, chop! We don't have the entire day!" I land a light smack on her amazing ass, giving the left cheek a good squeeze.
With an adorable yelp, Codae starts trotting forward, shooting me uncertain peeks over her shoulder even as she already sways her hips to my pleasure. I know better than to get swayed by her hesitant looks. She wants this. A lot.
Before moving into the hallway, my leashed companion investigates both sides as if there's a possibility of stumbling onto anyone. Another slap on her taut butt forces her out with a whimper, and she uses a hand to massage the spot. Coincidentally, the repeated motion gives me a better view of her cute backdoor and the inviting folds below.
A total coincidence, mhmyeah.
So, we begin our journey. Codae's bare feet travel softly over the lush carpets of the decorated corridors. Her tail is kept raised so as not to obstruct anything by accident. And the way she arches her back with feline-like grace confirms that she wants everything to be visible to me at all times.
Such a born temptress.
"You know, technically speaking, we should be alone, but there are certain groups and individuals who tend to lean into a more… mischievous side. It's not uncommon for them to slip in without prior notice and laze about here and there," I comment as casually as I can.
The effect is instant. Codae's entire figure tenses, and she almost misses a step. Still, she doesn't let out a peep, even though her gaze starts scanning each door we are about to pass as if someone is going to pull it open at any time. Yet, she doesn't shrink back in shame. Oh, sure, she feels plenty ashamed, but instead of backing off, she pushes her chest out and angles her hips even more.
And her pussy is definitely dripping even worse than before.
Smirking to myself, I pull on the leash to slow her gait a tad. "Look at the mess you're making in my home. Someone will need to clean that up later, don't you think?"
The proud chieftess throws a glance at the carpet and registers the trail of wet spots extending from between her legs back to the nearest bend. Her face grows redder with that realisation.
"I'm sorry for… being such a dirty girl, sir…" Codae replies while meeting my eyes. "Do you need me to take care of this later or…"
I make a show of thinking about it, then grin cunningly. "Maybe I'll ask someone to make these permanent. Everyone will then know what transpired here and be reminded of it every time they notice the stains."
Her thighs inch closer together, but to her credit, she manages to keep them from squeezing together, as much as she wants to bring any kind of touch upon those swollen feminine lips down there.
"Continue," I give an order, and she hastily twirls around.
After a short while, we are back in the lobby. Or, at least above it. Codae takes a moment to admire the sight before I guide her down the stairs, appreciating how her ass bounces with each step. Afterwards, I consider our options, letting my gaze wander over all the available furniture and rooms.
Until my attention falls on the reception counter, and an idea forms in my head.
Tugging my companion along, I gesture towards the secluded section. "Get in there."
Codae peers between me and the working area before biting into her bottom lip and resting both hands on the front desk. With a languid motion, she pulls herself up, slinging a leg over the edge. Her needy cunt opens up a little, flashing its pink insides invitingly, and intentionally judging by the look she offers over her shoulder. Some more wiggling and stretching later, the gorgeous female hops down on the other side, leaving numerous wet marks on the polished surface.
Staring at her expressionlessly, I move three steps to the left and grab the gate after the corner, lifting the entrance and joining her. Realising that's what I meant initially, the handy female turns furiously red from embarrassment.
It was a good show, though.
"What do you think? It's a nice spot, isn't it?" I ask, mercifully providing a change of topic.
The chieftess regards the small compartment with some more clarity. "It's very cosy, sir. You have an overlook of the entire hall and a nice place to handle your work. If this is a truthful recreation of your mansion at home, I'm impressed. Though a few drawers and shelves seem to be missing beneath the reception desk."
"No, it's perfectly as it should be," I reply, causing her to blink at me confusedly.
Since actions speak louder than words, I yank Codae between me and the desk, turning her so we are facing each other. Putting my free hand atop her beautiful hair, I push down. She lets herself be brought lower while keeping her focus on my face, curious and perhaps intrigued. As soon as her pretty ears pass the level of the desktop, I shift closer, effectively forcing the Raccoon girl inside the empty nook.
When she ends up crouching in there with her back pressed against the wooden partition and her face a hair's breadth from my crotch, understanding finally dawns on the clever woman. Her eyes sparkle with amusement and something much more depraved.
"Usually, it's my privilege to sneak down there and distract my charming receptionists, but whenever I see you, I just can't stop the feeling that you simply belong in there." I smile a little lewdly too.
Taking one last peek at my expression to search for explicit permission, Codae wastes no more words and instead jumps right to working on my belt. She takes care of it in a flash, and my erect cock pops up right upon her lips, smacking them with its hard tip. Without further ado, the needy chieftess takes a big whiff of its musk and begins to rub it with her capable fingers.
I would be glad to let her play with my member for hours, but we are on a timer here. So, resting one elbow atop the reception and leaning forward, I pull the hand holding her leash back. Codae parts her lips immediately as if waiting for it to happen, and I slide into her welcoming mouth. A satisfied hum reaches my ears, accompanied by the obscene sounds of an enchanting lady enthusiastically sucking a dick.
When her palms move to my thighs, I get the unspoken message and tug the leash as far back as I can. Codae lets out a reverberating groan as I spear into her throat. She fights back, trying to push herself off me, but each time she withdraws until my glans is atop her tongue, I yank her into me again, nailing that tight pipe like I own it. The noise turns even more indecent as I roughly fuck her face with the help of the stylish collar.
And from the steadily growing puddle beneath Codae's slick cunt, she is in love with the treatment.
"I thought I would find you here." A familiar voice cuts through the air.
We both freeze at the same time. My eyes flick up towards the hall ahead while Codae stays still with my cock fully lodged in her throat. She doesn't dare to move an inch or let out any more of her alluring voice as she strains her hearing. I hastily let go of the leash and rest both elbows on the countertop, bringing myself even closer to squeeze my naughty partner-in-crime further into the hidden nook.
"Mom?" I smile wryly, watching the feline lady slowly approach as she looks around the same way Codae had.
"I was surprised to see you gone without waiting for your father, though Siriga did say you had some important matters to attend to with our incredible chieftess." Ayumi stops about halfway and tilts her head sweetly. "Is she not with you?"
"I sent Codae to the baths." I chuckle warmly and shift a tad as someone decides to gradually pull back, assaulting my cock with a peculiar sensation. "She's working so hard for me and deserves a moment to relax. I couldn't just leave without making sure she understands that."
"And you didn't join her?" My mother puts her hands on her hips and pouts.
"Will do in a moment." I hastily reach to the side, open up a drawer, and pick up a random packet of papers, which results in my dick getting dragged all around Codae's mouth. "I have to check these first, and she might like a moment for herself without either of us breathing on her neck."
"I certainly hope so." She squints at me the way only a mother can when making sure you actually do what you are told to instead of spewing excuses. "I know you are in a hurry, but she's been craving her mate for a while. Certainly, you can find a moment for a quickie at least, no? If you want to finish her fast, she told me she would definitely feel divine if you held her ankles past her head and made a mess of her pussy."
By some miracle, the person in question avoids sputtering on my cock as she gets exposed by her best friend with no remorse. I'm surprised I don't choke on air either. Never thought I would be hearing such demands from my own mother. This world is something else.
"Got it. I'll make sure she can't walk for the rest of the day." I wink at Ayumi, causing her to giggle.
My words seem to make someone bolder as a devoted tongue starts swirling around my glans and wrapping itself over my length. This woman is so lucky that I have much better control over my expression than any other guy.
"I won't delay you any further, then." Mom spins around with a wave. "The other two just left. I found the briefcase on my way to the backyard after bidding farewell to them. It's been a bit careless to leave it like that, don't you think?"
"Only those who have already been inside can open it without guidance," I respond, fighting the urge to thrust my hips into the passionate blowjob I'm getting below. "Whoever found it would have most likely asked if it's yours, so that's fine. And it's nearly indestructible."
"If you say so." She nods to herself. "I can take it with me if you would like. Picking it up won't make you two get tossed around like meat in a barrel, right?"
Laughing openly, I shake my head. "No, it won't. You don't need to be gentle with it. Thanks in advance."
With another wave and a smile, Ayumi climbs up the staircase and disappears into the ceiling. For good measure, we remain silent for a minute or two longer before I step back, yanking my member out of the embrace of an extremely zealous pair of lips. My tip plops out of the chieftess' mouth with a pop, and she gazes up at me both mischievously and guiltily.
"You damn minx. We almost got caught because of you." I grasp Codae's hair, making her shiver strongly along with a deep moan. "Or was that what you actually wanted? To be discovered sucking your best friend's son's cock under the counter like a hopeless slut?"
"N-No, sir…" Codae whimpers, but her response comes without much dread about such a prospect.
I glare down at her, which brings forth another lustful shiver.
"Hmmm…" I slide my palm to cup her chin. "I initially intended to bring you to the baths, shower you with love and affection through a sensual massage, but I changed my mind. You've been a bad girl. And bad girls need to be punished."
I jerk her up to her feet. The fierce female gasps before my mouth is on hers, devouring those kissable lips. She leans into my kiss, letting me know all of her is mine. My hands are led to her curves, one grasping her ass, the other holding onto the nape of her neck. She wants me to explore her body to my heart's content, to touch and graze my submissive mate until I get enough.
Cutting off the kiss, I hold Codae's face in front of mine, peering into her hazy eyes. "Now I'm going to fuck you. Just the way you wished to be fucked."
With a heavy hand, I spin the athletic lady around and bend her forward. As soon as her head appears between her knees, I bump my hips into her and shove her against the back of the reception desk, which pushes her shoulders past her legs. It's not exactly as Ayumi has described, but it's close enough.
Codae glances up at me from upside-down with an unsure expression. "Here?"
"As I said, it was supposed to be the baths, but it seems like you will enjoy this spot better. Maybe Ayumi will visit us again to chat with me some more. I wonder what her face would be after leaning over this counter and seeing you tucked in there so disgracefully." I grin at her wickedly.
The moment her eyes widen in disbelief, I thrust right into the dripping slit positioned perfectly at the level of my cock. A prolonged growl echoes through the chamber, morphing into a moan full of carnal satisfaction. Grabbing Codae's hips, I begin to hammer her leaking snatch like there's no tomorrow. Like the force of my pounding might somehow transfer into the suitcase and be noticed by the carrier.
Even if it doesn't work like that.
"Fuuuuuuuck…" My partner curses openly, her eyelashes fluttering from the burst of ecstasy. "H-Harder, please… Yessssss…"
It doesn't take long for Codae to lose herself in the pleasure, partially forgetting about everything else. And since that's the goal, I redouble my efforts after a few initial shoves, giving her just enough time to grow accustomed to the pace. The counter keeps thudding from the hammering it receives alongside the poor or lucky girl's slit, but it holds itself valiantly, designed to withstand some rough handling.
Contrary to my expectations, it doesn't look like Mom will be gracing us with her presence again. A few minutes into pummeling Codae's pussy senseless, there's no sign of another intrusion. Someone else appearing could be an issue, like Noah, for example, but we both know that Ayumi expects me to rail her best friend somewhere in here, so she will undoubtedly keep the little troublemaker away from the suitcase.
"Ahhhh! Ahhhhh! Ahhhh! Fuck! Me! Ahhhh!" The tough Racoonkin takes a beating and makes it clear she enjoys it a lot. "Ahhhh! Ahhhhh! Shit!"
She's managed to overcome the overwhelming beginning and is now observing intently as my dick plunges into her pussy, spread wide around its girth. With front row seats to the show, she holds onto her legs like they are her last lifeline. Even the sporadic droplets of her own love nectar that now drip onto her face are not enough to make this any less delightful.
"I'm coming! Ahhhh! Ahhh! I'm going to come!" Codae's gaze slips past my manhood and locks with mine. "Can I cum now, sir? Can I please, cum? Ahhhh! Ahhhh! Please!"
I let her beg for a while longer, watching amusedly as her legs begin to shake and her snug channel shows the first signs of losing the battle against her will. She does everything in her power to hold back, but desperation quickly pools in her stunning eyes. If I don't give her the word, she will fail to defer to me, and perhaps be up for some more punishment due to that.
But I'm not that cruel.
"Cum for me." I slam into her with all my might. "Now."
And so she explodes with a full-blown quiver. Her shuddering moan arrives in parts, interrupted by the mighty tremors tensing her muscles and shaking her body. She spasms so much that her snatch attempts to choke my dick off with its convulsions and ultimately pushes me out of her cosy embrace. A trickle of love juices follows it shortly, a few spurts shooting onto the floor, just like the last time she got harshly pounded into the height of her peak.
However, with how tough this girl is, especially after joining my close Partners, she will recover from this much in a flash.
And I promised a certain nice lady that I would destroy her friend's needy pussy today.
That's why, before Codae can fully recover, I grab her hips again and slide back in up to the very root. She jolts awake from her cum-induced stupor, and her face snaps up to mine just as I'm pulling back for another shove. Her mouth opens to say something, but my glans retreats to the edge of her folds by then, and I thrust in again with enough force to slam the robust woman into the desk.
Needless to say, all that leaves her throat is a loud whine mixed with a rapturous groan.
"FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!" The chieftess's eyes roll to the back. "Too soon! Too soon! Ahhhhhhh! I just came! Sir! Ahhhhh! Please, sir!"
"No can do." I chuckle and slide my feet between hers to widen her stance to the point that her ears graze the floor with each movement. "You heard the boss lady. No more walking for you today."
"Shitshitshitshitshit, ahhhhhhhhhhhh!" Codae tries to slap my thighs away, but doesn't use any real force and ultimately resigns herself to the relentless banging. "Ahhhhhhh! Ahhhhhhh! Ahhhhhh! Again already! Ahhhhh!"
"You are free to cum at your own discretion," I offer the troubled female an olive branch.
"THANK YOU, SIR! AHHHHHH!" She explodes not a second later.
And I just keep plunging my hard cock into her squeezing insides even as she moans, curses, shudders, and spasms. It makes a mess out of her due to all our combined juices splashing everywhere, mostly all over her overturned front and face. The floor isn't spared either, already covered in her nectar so much it's better for me to avoid moving my feet lest I slip and punch into her guts way harder than I intend to.
Codae clearly takes my permission to her heart as she orgasms practically non-stop. It becomes increasingly difficult to plough through her narrowing passage. Yet, I don't stop, sensing through our connection how much she relishes the fairly brutal way I pummel her pussy. And even without that sense, most people would be able to guess as much thanks to her loud cries interlaced with an occasional growl and shouting for more.
By the time I'm starting to lose her, she's on her sixth finish in a row. Fingers sinking into her supple flesh, I aim for its peak and slam home one last time. A wave of hot seed spirals right into her awaiting embrace. Feeling the creamy delicacy coating her insides, Codae releases a contented whine. I pump her full of my load as deep into her womb as I can. Mostly so that she doesn't end up splashed all over her face as soon as I pull out.
Standing by and watching carefully as the stunning chieftess slowly comes to her senses, I regard our surroundings for any possible surprises. There have been no further interruptions as far as I can tell. Granted, we haven't been exactly quiet, so perhaps the prospective visitors might have gotten turned around after guessing what's going on.
Only time will tell.
Catching an awkward groan, I glance into the empty space beneath the counter, still filled with a nude and freshly fucked Beastkin female. Truly, squeezed in there bent like that with her lady bits offered for the taking makes her look so much at her place. Perhaps it's not a coincidence she's developed a thing for being at her mate's mercy.
Unfortunately, it would be rude to keep Codae like this after our fun is done. Moving to a knee, I delicately help her out, ensuring she doesn't slip, then assist the wonderful female in straightening up. We do that slowly since she's been forced into quite a situation for quite a while. I scrupulously knead her muscles to ease the transition, receiving a bunch of appreciative groans and throaty grunts that would make any man fully erect in seconds.
As soon as she's up, she almost falls down again, her legs suddenly giving up on their job.
"Oh." Codae blinks lazily at them after I catch her in my arms. "I think I'm starting to get used to not feeling my legs. It's pretty much guaranteed after spending time with you… Sir."
"It's a sign of a job well done." I snicker at her, shuffling the toned woman into a bridal carry. "But, I should be able to aid this malady with my upgraded power if you wish me to."
"No. It's not entirely unpleasant. A little bit… endearing… even." She admits with a scarlet flush, moving her lips to my neck to nibble on it affectionately. "Thank you for tending to my needs."
"It's both my duty and pleasure." I steal her lips briefly before letting her rake her teeth across my skin more. "But, as much as I love this, it's not my only duty."
"I'll be fine on my own in the bath," Codae assures me. "And I'm sure Ayumi will sneak in here the moment you come out of the mansion. Another reason for you not to rejuvenate me. I won't have to fake having been fucked into a cripple."
We laugh together, and she snuggles further into the crook of my neck.
Reaching the pools, I get rid of my remaining clothes and get us in the water. I might have things to do, but that won't stop me from spending just a minute more cuddling with this ravishing woman and sharing loving kisses together. Somehow wrenching myself out of her deadly clutches, I slip away to dress up and run outside.
Coming out of the suitcase, I appear in a simple double bedroom. This must be where Mom and Dad normally sleep. Closing the lid after I climb out, I follow the quiet sounds travelling through the house and locate Ayumi in one of the storages.
She beams at me after turning around. "That was quick. Are you sure she had enough?"
I roll my eyes at her. "She's stuck in the bath for at least half an hour more. That should be proof enough."
Giggling to herself, my furry mother gives me a cordial hug. "Thank you. She needed it. You might already have an effect on her, but it will still take some time before she becomes capable of openly addressing you with her desires."
"We'll work on that," I promise her. "Now, I gotta go. See you later."
We peck each other's cheeks respectively, and she escorts me to the entrance. Not wanting to be delayed any further, I head straight to the gate while looking as busy as possible. The sight of my peculiar statue still makes me pause, but there's nothing I can do about this without offending the nice people living here.
Going through the motions Sirgia taught me, I activate the portal and step through. Normally, it needs an operator on both sides, but I have enough energy to handle the process on my own. And that rule is partially meant for security. Earlier, Codae was here when Sirgia turned the arch on for our arrival.
I find myself back in the Forgegraver lands, glad to see that everything looks to still be standing. No immediate calamities seem to have descended upon the family during my absence. A quick mental ping confirms that everyone is already at the headquarters, so I should join them as soon as possible. I could summon Diana for a quick transfer or take a walk. But I'm fairly used to always having company, so maybe I should call for some.
"Come out." I cross my arms over my chest.
Pinkish mist flows out of said chest and forms the figure of a scandalously sexy woman with violet skin and demonic features.
"You've been naughty." I swipe Ailish's tail into my palm right after it materialises. "Not only peeping on my private time but even hiding things from me."
"Ahn! Master!" The rowdy Succubus writhes in bliss. "You are getting rougher! Is that thanks to that fluffy-eared bitch?"
"That's not a way to address your fellow sister-mate." I yank the dark appendage more. "Maybe I should punish you too. Actually punish."
"Master, no! I was simply jealous!" She attempts to bring pity out of me with her puppy eyes. "You manhandled her so dotingly! I wish that were me! Why couldn't it be me?"
I snort at her. "Jealous? I ruined your pussy more times than I can count in ways that Codae can only dream of, and you should be the one to feel jealous?"
"You still don't get the female heart, Master." Ailish pouts at me.
"I like to think that I do. But Succubi are on another level." Sighing softly, I gesture at her to start walking. "Nevertheless, spying on your master while he is balls deep in another woman is not your only fault."
She ceases her playful approach and lowers her gaze a tad. "I have no excuses for that."
"From what I heard, you played a major role in finding my father, so I shouldn't be too hard on you." I snake an arm around her waist, and she instantly glues herself to my side.
"It was a flash of luck, really," she replies with a smirk. "It's more like he found us."
"Doesn't matter. I'm eternally grateful to you and the other girls. It's not an exaggeration to say that you have fulfilled a distant dream of mine that's been thrown away long before any of us even met." I glance at the sky reminiscently.
"You know we are always there for you. Anything you need. Anything you want. We love you and wish to make your life better at every step." The usual lust fiend directs a resolute gaze at me. "And we know you feel the same for any of us. Including those who are yet to find their way into your arms. So, I hope you can forgive them for deceiving you again."
It's obvious who she means as we both face the blue canopy above our heads.
"I can't stay mad at you for long. That might be a glaring weakness of mine." I shake my head with a scoff.
"You are a good man." Ailish steals a chaste kiss from me. "One not afraid to do what needs to be done when forced with a limited hand."
Our local headquarters come into sight as she says that, making it clear that trouble is already on the horizon. The unfamiliar carriage serves as its omen. Though if I haven't received any messages to urgently make my way here, the situation doesn't seem to be as critical.
Let's get this shit over with and continue dismantling the Stockhawkers until nothing is left behind.
