Artaxes said regarding Kleris' dress.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Kleris agreed, but was soon bogged down by delicate dress shoes and getting his dress caught by the foliage.  "Oh, are you sure?  I'm pretty certain centaurs hate that sort of thing.  But if you're offering, that would be very helpful..."  Kleris took his good hand and scrambled up his flank, throwing a leg up and squeezing against Artaxes until he was able to shimmy up onto his back.  Without a saddle or anything, he leaned forward to hug his belly, holding firmly with his thighs as they blazed a trail.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/><div align="center">(http://i.imgur.com/GJPQv1z.jpg?1)</div><br/>Scenes of primal beauty were so numerous in this small grove.  After coming to a crystal-clear pond with a glass orb floating in mid-air above it, Artaxes said "I wonder if the ambient magic of Redhurst is making the forest extradimensionally larger.  Just a thought."<br/><br/>By the time they got out of the woods, he and Kleris were more than a little dirty, to say the least.  Artaxes' hooves were caked in dirt and mud, and some falling tree sap got onto Kleris' dress in spots.<br/><br/>"I'm sorry," Artaxes exclaimed as he applied a<em>prestidigitation</em>spell to Kleris and then himself.  "I should have known better than to go into the forest when you had such a beautiful dress.  I suppose that we should shower off before we trail too much remaining mud around."<br/><br/>Suddenly an idea popped into the centaur's head.  "Ummm, Kleris, I have a proposition.  Due to centaur anatomy, we require the assistance of a second person for cleaning purposes.  I certainly can't reach my flanks or legs with my hands, and I've been too shy to ask others to help until now.  If you want, you can help groom me."<br/><br/>He blushed.  "Don't worry, it doesn't have to be a full shower, just a cleaning of the back and legs.  Would you do that for me?"<br/><br/><em>I'm going to assume that Kleris says yes, then the below scene happens.  If not, he bids farewell and we move on to the next day.</em><br/><br/><div align="center"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;">Boys' Locker Room</span></div><br/>The night was late, and physically-inclined classes finished hours earlier, so the boys' showers were empty.  The anti-illusion and transmutation measures were present over the entrance as well, but it did not prevent such uses inside the room itself.  The boys' counterpart was structurally identical, but had a different atmosphere.  A half-open locker had a<em>capture image</em>of a woman in her undergarments, and a wet towels was unceremoniously dumped onto the floor for the staff to clean up.<br/><br/>Artaxes turned on one of the showers.  Putting his front half into the stall, he let the warm water rush over his bare chest, generously applying soap to his face, chest, arms, and front hooves.  After several minutes he got out, but let the shower continue running.<br/><br/>"Umm, are you still up for it, Kleris?" he asked.  "All you need to do is scrub my back half and hooves.  Here, I'll go over to the side a little to let you in."<br/><br/>Artaxes' body felt soft and smooth, his brown hair catching the wetness of the water.  His tail felt long and silky in his hands and gave a slight swat in pleasure.  From this angle Kleris could see the centaur's manhood: it was different than a humanoid's, a 5-7 inch sheaf-like foreskin hanging a little forward from his legs.  As Kleris' hands worked his body, covering him with soap, Artaxes became visibly aroused.  His growing erection parted the top of the foreskin to grow out to an impressive 13 inches.<br/><br/>Artaxes yelped.  "Ah!  Sorry!"  He looked back at Kleris.  "Don't worry, I'll put it back in!  Just give me time!"<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Kleris lets Artaxes unarouse himself</div><div class="spoiler_body">"Turn the water temperature down.  That will help."  After several seconds of cold water and thinking gross, disgusting things, Artaxes grew flaccid and his penis retreated back into its sheaf.  Kleris continues cleaning the centaur as normal, and the shower ends.</div></div><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Kleris doesn't mind, decides to wash him down there as well</div><div class="spoiler_body">"Oh, you don't mind?"  Artaxes blew a sigh of relief.  "Yeah, just a biological function.  You are a very pretty girl...it happens to us guys.  Heh, sometimes it feels like it has a mind of its own."<br/><br/>He groaned in delight as Kleris' hands gripped his shaft.  "Eh heh, you don't have to clean me down there," he said, even though it was obvious that the slight build-up of sweat and smegma clearly indicated otherwise.  "Oooh, uh...actually, yeah, keep going, that feels nice."<br/><br/>The massive centaur penis throbbed with delight in response to Kleris' touch.  There was no way he could clean this area without effectively masturbating Artaxes, but that wasn't necessarily a negative.  From time to time one of his back hooves clopped against the shower floor, and erotic thoughts filled Artaxes' mind.  It seemed wrong to use Kleris in such a way, but he hasn't received such stimulation in a long time and it was far better than rubbing up against a pillow or solid object.  For the time being he just went along with the ride and let the pretty human girl work her magic on him.</div></div><br/><br/><div

lesson Kleris and the class went back into the Gauntlet.  "This is technically a Divination spell, but today's spell will help you find secret doors and compartments.  You'll need it for this next dungeon, as the only way out is hidden."<br/><br/>The dungeon was a series of blank square rooms.  Obvious doors led into other rooms, but many merely concealed a wall as they were opened.  By concentrating an making use of the spell given to them in the scroll, Kleris could find panels concealing levers and buttons, sliding doors seamlessly blending in with the stone wall.<br/><br/><div

quickly caught the attention of prefect Randall, who approached him shyly.  "Good afternoon, ma'am," he said.  "I don't recall seeing you around here.  Are you perhaps from Thamaunt, or a late attendee to Redhurst?"<br/><br/><em>Roll a Diplomacy check.  Add +3 to your modifier for the sylph disguise.  Randall's Friendly and has a 12 Charisma, so the initial DC is 11.  Asking him to show you
