For the Tolkien_weekly "Horseback" Challenge
Title: Rider
Author: Lady Branwyn
Character: Ioreth
Source: bookverse ROTK
Warnings: none
Note: AU
Ride a horse to Lossarnach? She feared the great, flighty beasts with their flying hooves and strange moods. And perch on its back with no saddle? She'd sooner ride on an oliphaunt!
But no aethelas could be found so now she must go in search with Mithrandir. A healer’s duty, she told herself.
Later, the other healers smiled and called her a true Rider of Rohan. But in her dreams, she heard again the steady thrum of hooves and felt the smooth grey flanks gather each mighty stride, springing into the air. And her heart sang along as they flew.
