Elise trudged through the dusty streets of Therinsford, dirt flinging at her ankles. Her clothes were ripped and torn and she was tired and weary. She sighed, a tear slding down her pale, dusty cheek. She stopped and stared down at her clothes. Her white shirt hung awkwardly from her shoulders. It was low on her chest. Her pants were also ripped, and she was hot. Beads of sweat showed on her face. She wiped it off and looked over at a dagger sticking out from the ground. She didn't know why it was there, but she pulled it out and and slit off part of her brown pants so she was wearing shorts. She sighed and did the same to her top, turning it into a tight bra. Then she pulled out the few coins she had and looked over at the horse stables. Maybe she could get a horse for cheap, or even steal one. She smiled and jogged over there.
Strolling along the aisle, she breathed in the sweet smell of horses. She peeked into the first stall, which contained a small, shaggy grey pony. On the nameplate it said 'Dudley'. She smiled at the pony and looked into the next stall. It contained a huge black Shire. When it saw her it poked its nose out to sniff her. She laughed and let it breathe in her scent before looking at its price. Unfortunately it was too much for her. She considered stealing it, but it was too big. Before she moved on she looked at the nameplate again. It said, 'Miedo'. She smiled at Miedo and movefd on past the few empty stalls, coming to a stop at a tall, lanky Buckskin Quarter Horse. She stared at it, it's sad eyes meeting hers, a neglected look on its face. She reached out, but it flattened its ears and turned away. She shrugged and turned around to go to the yards, but no horses suited her except Miedo, but he was way too much money. She sighed after looking around a little more and sat down by Miedo's stall, stroking his nose when he stretched his neck to let her.
