I loved the April Fools Winged Donkey and it was very much in the embodiment of the Shai Spirit. I wish it was a staple of the class that every Shai could have as a baseline and think it would also give us a great reason to pursue a 'Dream Donkey' variant which should be able to keep up with normal horses. Yet, it is unfortunate to say that the April Fools Donkey would have made a poor 'Dream Donkey' because it was significantly slower than a horse and my Siege guild felt like it was turning red in the face while trying to avoid yelling at me for being late to anything that required mount travel. (- negative uwu's detected - run donkey, run!) I fear that if it cannot keep up with normal horses then eventually I would be ordered to ride a horse or potentially face reprimands and at worse removal from the group which is a huge 'YIKES!' in my book.

Don't let our Donkey Dreams die or fade. Let's talk about what this event has taught us.

I want this dream donkey back.

In my opinion, they should have never caved and made it where Shai could ride horses. I knew once this happened any plans to develop future mount abilities or dream donkey mounts went right out the window. 

Please give us something. I actually really enjoy using my Donkey on Shai so having a dream version or even wild Donkeys that we can catch to train/breed ourselves that had different tiers like normal horses would be amazing!

We still want Dream Donkey, just look at the poor neglected Shai faces above!
