Fast was well and good, but Kimeya much preferred a safe ride over an expedient one.  And despite Elliot's words, he found it nearly impossible to relax - the mention of dead passengers not doing much in anyone's favor.

After a moment, Kimeya shook his head and leaned closer to Elliot to be heard over the noise of his horse.  "I'll pay more it it takes longer, jus please slow down.  Not even the ocean gets this bad."

In truth, the ocean got worse, but at least if you hit the water it wasn't rock hard.  Kimeya could swim, and he's had his sea legs for years, but this?  This was something different and terrible when they went so fast.
