The light cavalrymen murmured amongst themselves, but they all reached the same conclusion: Leech, with his strength and the Horse-headed Eagle Rocket, would be absolutely terrifying!
Leech put on his armor and jumped into the saddle. The comfortable saddle complemented his riding skills, making it easier for him to display his superb horsemanship.
An attendant handed him a lance. Leech nodded, gripping the reins in his left hand and the lance in his right.
"Rocket!"
With a gentle shake of the reins, Leech signaled Rocket, who began to trot forward.
Another shake of the reins and a squeeze of his legs against Rocket's belly gave it a further signal, and Rocket began to pick up speed.
Leech lowered his lance.
Rocket was now at a full charge. To the onlooking Soldiers, Leech and his Horse-headed Eagle became a white blur, covering a vast distance in an instant.
THUD!
THUD! THUD! THUD!!
The sounds of his lance striking the straw targets came in rapid succession.
