(I don't think you understand how horses act, Shille.)

Brighid's horse had only stayed because she had a death grip on the reins and was in fact being dragged across the snow. The horse reared and when he came down he landed a huge hoof in Brighid's midsection. She screamed in agony. Anneken's horse was gone. Brighid, after being thrown into the saddle, hunched over the pommel, reining the beast in so hard that the bit cut into his mouth. Anneken scrambled up behind her and ignored Emrey's instructions, for she had seen what he had not. Brighid's armor was stained with blood.

Anneken screamed in Brighid's ear. "Dawnstar!  The Sanctuary!"

Brighid wrenched the horse around and started the mad gallop toward the last bastion of the Brotherhood before its destruction by Lee and his company.
