Chiron caught up from behind, grabbed Alvin's arm, and pointed at the winged horse with a grin. "Do you know what that is?"
Alvin frowned. "How would I know?
It looks like some kind of mount. Is there something unusual about it?"
Chiron smiled. "It's called Pegasus. It's more than just a mount...
Actually, it's Poseidon's bastard child. Sure, it looks like a winged horse, but it really does share Poseidon's blood."
Alvin chuckled. "I've heard those Greek Deities have no qualms about who they sleep with, but I didn't think they'd take it this far...
Why are you telling me this?
What's so special about it?"
Chiron didn't seem bothered by Alvin's contempt for the Greek Deities. He shook his head with a smile. "Poseidon summoned Pegasus back, and it became Athena's mount in the final battle.
Arrows made from its feathers can track their targets, though they need a special process during crafting.

Alvin glanced at Chiron and shook his head with a smile. "Then you can collect them..."

These feathers aren't all that useful, really...
The people I know who can use bows in this day and age have no need for tracking arrows.
But a few would make nice gifts!
The rest are yours..."
Chiron stared at the large bag in surprise...
He'd been with Alvin for quite a while, but still wasn't used to Alvin's "generosity."
Alvin could be "stingy" about things Chiron considered trivial, yet he was remarkably generous
