[The video is of a rocky shoreline, under a grey autumn sky. A small handful of the demon horses can be seen grazing on washed up seaweed.]

[Davrin slowly lowers the camera back down, turning it to face himself. Both he and Assan the griffon, are perched on a couple rocks higher up. Out of immediate view of the horses.]


I know we're supposed to be gathering clippings from these things but... call me crazy.

[Assan lifts his head from where he'd had it balanced on his foreclaws, looking skeptical.]

- Not you. [Then back to the camera.] Anybody tried maybe... taming one of them?

[They're no halla, but maybe it'd be a good idea to have a horse around for land-based travel.]

That a good idea?

[His expression is curious. And maybe just this side of skeptical.]

(...Huh.)

You might be onto something.

(Having a form of land transport might not be a bad idea.)

Oh, I know these! The--horses, gamigin, not the bird creature of yours.

And I have seen a tamed gamigin, as a matter of fact. It had grown a horn on its head, unlike the rest of its kind. I'm less certain of how one would set about doing that, however. The one coachman I saw with one was...well, he probably had all the time he liked to do so.

...I think you'd probably want a lot of protective equipment, first. Even normal horses are pretty dangerous when feral.

What would you do with them if you did tame one?

Crazy.

[ There's amusement in Varric's voice, though as he shakes his head and watches the images play out. Those creatures don't look like anything he'd want to mess with, under any circumstances. ]

Have things been too tame for you lately or something, Warden?

Oh that is the best idea I've heard anybody here make, and if you don't have anybody to try I volunteer as fuckin' tribute. [Please excuse this weird little guy's excitement, he Really Likes Horses.]

[Oh... oh no.... Not horses. The goetia had nothing against the four legged creatures, far from it. He just had a feeling a certain someone will try to bring one home. Where would the even house it?]

I can't say that idea has crossed my mind. If you did manage tame one, what would do with it after? Wouldn't you have to transport it via boat to where you could make use of riding it?
