how would a hobbit get on an oliphant? a really big stool maybe! or maybe a bit legolas style! lol
anyway who ever heard of a fun loving oliphant? wouldn't it just try to eat you!

and i think that the name lord bling should be used for ever more! did they have bling in them days! maybe the 9 rings of man were concidered bling and thats why they were evil!

Oh noes...It looks like my nickname has not only stuck, but has been fairly glued to your character, Orithil.

Perhaps ole Redplate muttered it under his breath, and Nami caught it with her elvish ears, but I coulda swore he had only thought it in his head... But I agree, its a good name for him.

Acally, what a very young warhorse you have! Hate to be a prickler, but at three, a horse would just barely be greenbroke, never mind fully trained to be a war mount.

A middle Earthian book of erotica?

1001 Elven nights?

That's my guess anyway

..or the Karma-kazhad-sutra?

I never said Midnight was a warhorse. Did you forget Aelfwine is only 18?

Hmmm, if you ask me you are trying to write a biography in which you are off course the hero. But you need notes for that. I'm I getting warm?

Well, generally speaking, any mount you ride to war is a warhorse and must be taught certain things...seeing as back then horses were either for war or the plow, and she most certainly is NOT a plow horse, I'm assuming. How not to shy, how to charge, when to stay, certain comands by the rider, how to balance the rider when they sek to engage....that sort of stuff.

But more over, it's not really phyiscally possible for that horse age 3 to be THAT developed, to carry a rider over any really long distances. Horses dont stop growing till 2-3 and to start training them under saddle any earlier then that generally tends to harm them, and doesn't go over well. And training a horse to saddle is a process that takes at LEAST a year for even the basics.*

Trust me, it was my business for quite a few years. But at anyrate, play on...It just caught my notice, is all.


*And if you point to 3 year old thoroughbreds, I cite that by the time they are taken off the track by seven (usually, unless they prove to be stellar preformers) they are usually unsound things, and the only thing they know is how to run dead out, and rarely recieve any training in any other gate or manners. God knows how many I've rehabbed and been trampled by.

You had other plans for "the book"? I can't wait till I find out. Meanwhile I'll just keep speculating: you are trying to find out who and who not to try and get to join your army after the quest is over?

Ok, Shah. You have a point. Apparently I wasn't thinking stright. (I'm not being sarcastic about that) I could edit, but you would have to edit your post as well.

Let me know.

Cool, edited my post then. 6 would be a good age, she'd probably be well trained by that time, or age 7. No worries, I'm just kinda really observant when comes to horse stuff...Sorryz.
