Othic asks.  No-one answers him.  Yip creeps within ten feet of the two horses, then notices for the first time the differences in size and strength.  There's a momentary pause as he looks at the horses hight, to the rope in his hand, and then back again.  He looks over his shoulder at Geoffery, Blarth and Halgo.  The trio offer him a wide grin and waves of encouragement."I put five gold on the horse," Halgo mutters low enough that Yip can't hear.  No-one takes him up on the bet.Yip slinks away from the horses, the beginnings of an idea forming in his head.  He runs to the opposite side of the road and ties the rope to a fence-post, hoping it's strong enough to prevent a horse from bolting once the rope falls over his head.  He then concentrates on tying a lasso and creeps forward again.  He stops short from the horses, then proceeds to start circling the loop above his head.  The loop expands, getting larger and larger, before unravelling just as Yip throws.  The untied strand of rope hits one of the horses in the nose.  It looks up, flashing Yip a glance that could almost be annoyed, and trots down the road with his companion.  "Er," Othic says after watching the display, "does yer little fella have any experience with horses?"Blarth's cry of "Puny Kobold" is the only response.  Geoffery nudges Halgo in the ribs as they watch Yip botch a second attempt and send the horses further down the road."Maybe you better help," he suggests."Why me?" Halgo asks."You've been driving the wagon all this way.  Horses seem to like you."Halgo grumbles, but he gets off the wagon and heads down the road to help Yip...</blockquote>
