[02] well piece by piece and nail by nail

[On the other side of the scroll there's a red-brown pegasus with a conspicuously gold mane and an even more conspicuous back-left bronze leg, looking rather disgruntled. Still, this is something he needs to do.]

My name is Gilgamesh, and I'm looking for a blacksmith or someone similar. My false leg is making it very hard to fly straight, so I'm looking to get proper weights for my other legs to act as balance, otherwise I run the risk of becoming permanently lopsided. I... need some help.

[He looks reluctant as he says it; this is the sort of thing he should be able to himself. Still... no thumbs, and no access to his lab. This is the best he can do under the circumstances.]

I also don't really know how to pay you, since I haven't managed to secure a proper job and thus regular income. I'm happy to trade labor for product.

Perhaps a brew to make balance anew
Would do for you what you seek it to.

Like... a potion that would keep me from being lopsided? I'm concerned that lightening the leg will reduce its functionality.

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

It will not change the leg. Instead
It will shift your body, and your head.
Your sense of balance, made anew
Will address the leg's weight more true.

I would try looking for the HandyPony in town. Blue, brown mane. Carries a sign for his business on his back. He's the sort of fellow who could make what you're looking for.

I know how to make flying machines, but I dunno if that'll help much with your leg.
