[This is close enough to adventuring that it counts, and adventuring is the kind of career that you get good at quickly or you die. Or quit, but that's the lame option.

That is, until Snagglefoot Miffen screams out of godsdamn nowhere and scares it into running. The way he laughs once the horse runs, despite his situation, makes it clear that he's done this on purpose.
Furious, Lizzie marches over and punches him in the head. He slumps over, knocked out.
