There's only so much a person can do, and a person can't not check Farogil out, as he sits up there with pride and his calves on full display. Detlef smiles up at him and now faces a choice. He can quickly saddle up his own horse and ride alongside Faro, giving tips as they go... or he can climb up behind Faro and give him more of a hands-on lesson. Either way, he'll teach.

And maybe he should also be more clear with the hitting-on, because it's entirely possible Farogil's missed most of it. So after that consideration, Detlef hops up on the horse behind Farogil, on the blanket rather than in the saddle.

"I've got everything opened up for us, so take her on out. Legs loose, you'll be guiding with your knees more than your hands and the reins. Press your right knee to her if you want her to turn right, and so on. Nice and easy. ...And may I rest my hands on you? I can reach past and hold on to the front of the saddle if not."
