Halt and Abelard "C'est formidable!"
Halt was on a mission to capture some ruthless thieves that had escaped to Galicia with one of King Duncan's priceless crown jewels. And Halt had been the one to receive a message from Duncan himself asking him to hunt down the thieves.
He groaned as he rubbed his red and tired eyes after a full day of riding wondering how long it would take him to find the thieves. The track left by the thieves had ventured down a wide and spacey path all the way to an Araluen port. There, he had had to take a boat to Galicia after inquiring about three wiry men and two larger ones that were the thieves.
Two long and dizzy hours later, Halt stepped off the boat leading Abelard alongside him. He leaned on his horse for support as he tried to fight down another urge to throw up.
Abelard quickly stepped away from the poor Halt nimbly, leaving him to wobble precariously. Hey, if you throw up, you're not doing it on me.
Halt grunted in annoyance. "Selfishness doesn't become of you, Abelard."
No, but it becomes of you. Hmmf, trying to throw up on me.
They settled in a small clearing at dusk and Halt didn't see why not they shouldn't start a fire. So he did and brought out the dried meat he brought with him. After Halt had fed and watered Abelard, he sat down and tried to enjoy his evening.
"So Abelard, how'd you like being back in Galicia?" Halt inquired.
Abelard looked down at him and whinnied. C'est formidable.
Halt frowned. "Uh, don't know if you've noticed but, I don't speak Galician."
Voulez-vous que je vous enseigne?
Halt raised an eyebrow.
Heh heh, vous pouvez pas me comprendre.
"Abelard!" He complained.
Want me to teach you? That's what I said. Abelard shifted towards Halt a little.
"Euhhh, d'accord!"
Heyyyy, so you do know how to speak Galician. He shook his mussel and stomped away to pout.
Halt grinned and muttered something indistinctly under his breath, "Heh, and that's about the only Galician I know." Abelard was too far away to hear.
I'm 99.9 percent sure that Galician is just french, but if it isn't, then I made a complete idiot of myself! Review and leave suggestions!
