Again Odessa had left the warmth of her den for the chill of the thistle lands. Snow blanketed the ground thickly, though the medic had more than enough common sense to don her thick deer skin cloak for her ride. She had also been smart enough to use a deer skin rug for Remy's back too, not only keeping where she sat warm, but also keeping the large Hispano-Breton warm. Remy moved through the snow with ease, his bulky hooves showing little mercy to the white carpeting. He faired much better in this sort of weather than the lanky piebald gelding. Keshi was hanging around Odessa's home, grazing on hay under the tarpaulin shelter the medic had put up for him.
Odessa had a reason to be out in the cold, as the medic's bag at her waist signified. There were many herbs and plants that were hardy enough to survive winter, some of which had not been collected yet. It was a long shot that she would find anything she needed, but on the rare occasion she did it could turn out to be vital. Which is why this wintry rides were so crucial. The gardener halted her horse, resting while the snow flecked her dark hair.
