Title: mounted retreating
Post by: deda on April 03, 2008, 03:24:43 am
You rear in a donkey and flee from combat!

should be on and the verb should be changed to retreat.

"rear" means "raise", not "turn your back"...

Nothing wrong with in and flee!

Actually you don't rear the mount, the mount rears itself. Should be 'rein' in. You pull the reins.

So like "You rein in your donkey and flee from combat!"

or that... just as long as "rear" and "in" are no longer in the same sentence... It's gives me some ideas... ;D

Actually... I thought that verb 'to rear' refers to 'to caracole' in this context.
