Welcome to my first Hobbit drabble series! Stories will range from pre-Hobbit to during to after. Enjoy!
It wasn't natural being apart from the earth like this. He would much rather walk on his own two feet. It was safer and he could fight better.
No, Thorin crushed the fear and desire to dismount. Horses, or in his case, a pony was an asset. The men and elves rode the beasts with great skill and so would he. A pony was useful and more distance could be covered on a mount than on foot.
Thorin grit his teeth, tugging on the reins, pressing in his heels. He would become a master horseman like any proper royal ought.
A/N: Richard Armitage said he believed Thorin should be a great horseman being a prince/king in exile and he worked hard to show it. He was certainly a good one from the little we saw of them on horseback, so tada! This little drabble is about when Thorin was learning how to ride and become the great rider he is. :)
