Adelina had gotten the saddle and bridle, and began walking back to where Tsim was. Upon seeing that he had chosen a horse, she nodded, and opened up the stall. She put on its bridle and saddle, and brought it out, looking at Tsim. "Alright. Now, put your foot in the stirrup," she pointed to where that was, "climb up, sit down, and put your other foot in the other stirrup." She stood next to him, ready to help him up if he needed it.

He nodded doing what she said but still beginning to fall off the horse when he tried to put his other foot and waving his arms trying to find balance but failing

Adelina quickly reached up caught him before he could fall, helping him with his balance. She put his other foot in the opposite stirrup, hoping that might help him even more. "Alright. Now take the reins so you can control where the animal goes, and give the horse a GENTLE kick to get it walking outside," she told him.

He nodded just barely tapping his foot against his side trying to make him walk not sure how gentle or how rough to be...he only watched her after...

Adelina smiled. "Good," she said. She took a part of the bridle and pulled gently on it, helping Tsim lead the horse outside. As soon as they were out of the stable, she climbed on her own horse, and kicked it gently, looking back at him as the animal she was riding began to walk. She just wanted to make sure he could handle himself, and if he couldn't, then she wouldn't mind helping him out.

Tsim copied her kicking gently and not really knowing how to steer...so he just waited for instructions...as the horse began to walk

Adelina still looked at him, trusting the horse she was riding not to walk into anything or to start running off. "Now, to steer," she started, pausing for a couple of seconds to think about how to teach him. "Move the reins this way to make the horse go this way, and the other way to make it go in that way," she said, demonstrated for a moment or two. "To make it go faster, just kick it hard, and to stop it, pull back on the reins. Simple, really."
