Chapter 8
The two and a half rangers got on their horses and slowly rode to redmont.
It only took around about three days which was really fast all things considered that it should have taken way longer.
'Hiya Bob!' called out Eibhleann.
'Hello, I haven't seen you too younglings for a while. Now which one of you has an apprentice and how crazy is the apprentice?' he asked them.
'I do,' said Myfanwy.
'At least the apprentice has a chance of living now,' he said and much to Eibhleann's annoyance they all laughed.
'How did you get here without a horse?' Bob asked them.
'She has one. But it is not a ranger horse,' Myfanwy said back and gently pulled the horse forward. 'I was thinking that you could use her in some of your breeding. She is fast and is a bit surer footed than the normal ranger horse,' she said and gave the horse over to him.
'Well she is a dear then,' he said looking her over. 'Great to see that the youngling is able to look after a horse properly. She will have a loving home here. Now, I am to assume that you are here for the horse that you wrote to me about?' he asked as they all walked over towards the stables and watched as he bed Nuline's old horse down.
'I have just the one for you,' he said and got another horse out. 'Go on. Take her around the field. Get used to her,' he said and Nuline walked into the paddock.
Nuline tried to get on the horse but got buck off. Thinking that it was just a stubborn horse she got on again.
