| His Lady's Horse (Third age- pre-WotR) (Aragorn, Halbarad) |
Halbarad brings Aragorn a gift from Rivendell. |

"All was well in Imladris?" He smiled knowingly. "Aye, she lives." I turned to face him. "I did not ask of Arwen --" But then I saw the horse. I knew that proud back, that hardy coat. A horse of the Valley. Halbarad leaned close. "The lady is well, and wishes you the same." 'Twas good it was so dark. A ranger did not smile so foolishly at a horse. |
