DnD - Nienor and Asfaloth (Patreon)

Welcome to another sneak peek into Nienor's life :) Hope you like it!

She was always deeply fascinated with horses. Growing up she and her father spent much of their time traveling from one settlement to another. Sometimes via carriage sometimes on a ship, but Nienor was always most thrilled when they had to go horseback. Adran, her father, had his trusted war horse Garoof, but for little Nienor he always landed a new horse. She picked up fast the skill of riding. She also learned a lot about the animal's body language and that every horse was different not only in their stamina or speed but also in their manners, their character.

Though she held such warm feelings toward these animals she could never truly call one "her own". At least not until she was sent with the other three companions on a quest. A quest to bring a diseased body of a fellow adventurer to his desired resting place far in the north. After one nasty fight, when four horseback bandits ambushed their hearse, only two of their poor mounts survived. One of which was a lovely dapple mere that Nienor took, nursed back to health, and later named Asfaloth.
