On the morning the banners changed, I was already facing the right way. My keep’s old horse counts every muddy mile, and after the south road he breathes hard before touching his mash, a better warning than any stable ledger.
Should a tired horse be rested or ridden gently home? I lean toward rest, because a proud rider can replace boots, but not a good horse, unless the road is already behind you.
