“A pair of sleek Median bays moved with slow grace on the left and right, their riders guiding them with the ease of long familiarity.
The small gray Nisaean that walked in the center, however, made Danna sigh with wonder. Every line was a poem of power and harmony. Nisaeans were the most admired horses in the world, and this one stood out as a particularly magnificent specimen. The purple and blue ribbons braided daintily into her mane and tail matched the embroidery on her mistress’s linens, and golden roundels decorated the leather of her bridle.
Jasper bobbed his head and neighed with soft enthusiasm. Danna grinned. “Whoa, boy. Those are lady horses. Likely their pedigree is longer than your tail. Don’t go getting ideas above your station.”
Jasper widened his nostrils and blew out a stream of air, making Danna laugh.”
