I just read your post with Javan, Foley.
Great! It looks very good to me and I hope the others agree. There is a host of chances how we could make the things evolve to any direction we wish...

An easy way to bring this to a good drama! Cnebba knows how to ride Snowstreak to be sure but to shoot arrows while riding... at the age of eight? Now he's sure Snowstreak has changed after the fire to become so much more easily startled - one of the reasons he has hated Javan so much as Snowstreak had always been dear to him - and will blame javan for it. And he's not erred in that: the horse has changed in the hands of a young bloke even if it can still behave - about - with the adults! In a sense his claim is a rightful one (and it might need admitting by those who have power over him?) but surely he uses it to distract the notice away from his own failures...

Well, Groin, I had originally expected Crabannan and Erbrand to become good friends, but I'm having fun with this.

Gwath and Groin - you amuse me.
![]() Foley, Nog, LMP - you all seem to be acting like there was still something to discuss about this issue. Isn't it settled yet? Isn't it fine as it is? ![]()

We just like wasting lots of words.
![]() No, no, I'm kidding. We were thinking of different ways things could happen. There are eight characters involved in this, you understand, and we coud potentially discuss how each different one acted in the situation. ![]() The only thing that is NOT fine just where it is is the present state of things. But I think that that's been figured out in my latest post. Nogrod, I'll fix Cnebba's age. Garmund is 9, right? You're thoughts concerning Snowstreak is interesting. That can definitely be incorporated.

My two cents about the horse's apparent spookiness:
Chances are, the fire would not have damaged his ability to respond to proper handling. If he were to become more spooky, I would think it would only relate to fire or the sound of crackling, and the smell of smoke. In fact, if you really want him to be affected by the fire, then the smell of smoke would probably be what bothered him the most. Now, it is absolutely possible that if Cnebba was the only one handling Snowstreak for most of the time, then Snowstreak could become less trust worthy. If Cnebba's handling is inconsistant, maybe a little rough at times, or just doesn't happen very often, then Snowstreak could easily turn more skiddish. I think Nogrod insinuated that in his above post - that Snowstreak's behavior has something to do with Cnebba's handling and not all of it is due to the fire. So...those are just my ideas concerning this, based on my own horse handling and experience. We can fling it out the window, of course, as this is purely pretend.
