A fascinating idea about a time period I'm interested in myself: the beginning of the use of horses for riding, and the resulting impact. I've looked at town vs tribe -- this reminds me of the traders.

Very good job on the battle scenes, at least for someone like me. I have a lot of trouble visualizing the action in battle, and whatever you did helped me to follow it.

Liked the ending, where the "prize" was learning to ride. Could see this continuing, and imagining how the captive? slave? honored guest? new tribe member? would fit in with the people he's training.
