Description and lore
A patient mule carries a fitted load along walkable trails that a wagon cannot use. Its deliberate footing makes a narrow route feel possible.
Fitted packs balance against a patient body. The animal watches the narrow turn while the handler checks the load.
The mule's ears follow the sounds on the slope. One deliberate step brings the carefully arranged burden farther along the trail.
