Mike had his dark cloak tied tight around him his hood up and was on his horse he was riding out once again to find more men or women to join his cause. Mike rode hard and strong and never stopped till his mission was done. But MIke stopped this time as he fell off his horse and landed in the snow deep in the snow so deep infact he could not get himself out.

Rith was enjoying another leisurely jaunt through Nature's Bounty, still unable to believe how beautiful the view was up in the frigid heights. He sighed contently as he continued walking onwards stepping through the deep snow.
As he ventured he came upon a lone horse.
"Eh?" he queried with a face contorted into the definition of confusion. He walked up to examine it better, it wasn't a wild horse, it was bridled and saddled. He shrugged and moved to the front of the horse, feeding it an apple he had retrieved from his pack of emergency supplies. After feeding the horse its snack, he gently pat its nose as he said sympathetically "Poor thing, you must have been abandoned by your owner up here. Certainly went quite out of their way just to get rid of you."
Rith felt bad for this creature of nature, didn't want to leave it out in the cold to freeze. He shrugged and walked back to its side, clumsily scooping his foot into the stirrup and valuted himself onto the Horse, taking a moment to gain his bearings on the beast's back. Patting its back gently before grasping the leather reigns saying " 'Atta boy...um...Giddyup?" with a snap of the reigns. The horse looked back at him as if it were confused, but warily began clopping ahead down what little was visible of the trail.

"Get back here with my horse" Mike yelled out. Mike tried to get up but fell again. "Get back here." Mike said again as he fell once again. Mike finally got up and started running off towards the horse. "CHI CHI" Mike yelled as the horse stopped suddenly.(that is all I have I am not good at really really long post but I am working on it.))

As the horse came to a stop and he heard a voice from behind him, Rith looked back to see a bizarre fellow running up to him. "Oooooooooh, I get it. You're claiming the Horse as your's because you found it as abandoned too, Finders Keepers, right?" Rith replied pointing an accusing finger at him. Of course he had the situation completely wrong, but how was he to know? To him, this guy came from absolutely nowhere to get this abandoned Horse...the nerve.

"It is my horse watch this" Mike stood up and got on a rock "Chi Chi" Mike said then whistled and watched as the horse galloped back to him. "His name is chi chi he is the only horse to be raised in the dark forest and he has a scar across his left eye and down the middle of his mane." Mike said and shown the other mage the scars.

Rith had a look of disbelief on his face at first, but his eyes quickly widened into a look of revelation as he noticed the scars and whatnot the man had pointed out. Looking back to him, he nodded and said " I see...so you were the one who abandoned the Horse." then proceeded to nod acceptingly as he cupped his chin between his thumb and forefinger thoughtfully sure he had figured it out this time.

"No I fell off when we hit this rock back there of course my horse was startled and I fell off for the first time in the 14 years I have had this horse." Mike said petting it and looking at the mage. "Can I ask you to get off my horse" Mike said looking at him. "I really must be going soon." Mike said smiling petting the horse.

Rith grimaced at this odd fellow in speculation, but either way it resulted in the horse being in the care of a poor owner. Whether it was the indian-giving of abandoning a horse for no reason then wanting it back, or he poorly trains the horse over a course of fourteen years causing it several disfiguring scars and it still being startled by a merely mis-step over a rock.
"Well...alright, but I worry for this Horse's wellbeing." Rith said sloppily removing himself from the horse's back, more or less slipping off the last stirrup causing him to stumble backwards about a yard before regaining his balance.

"Thank you" Mike said and hopped on the back. "And as for the scars thats what you get for training a horse in the dark forest." Mike said as his last words and rode off into the moon light slowly like one of those old movies that nobody really likes but there good anyway.

Watching this odd little man ride off on "his" Horse, Rith added to his statement "Pfft, poorly." blowing a few stray strands of his auburn hair out of his eye before turning about and walking away in the opposite direction. "Probably gave the horse those scars on purpose...Jealous that the Horse looked better than he did." Rith said with a jovial laugh at his remark. "Oh, I really must write these down." he added continuing to laugh as he walked further away from him.
