The horse, stimulated by who knows what, was careening into the forest regardless of anything, frantically choosing the most difficult paths without regard for its own safety.

Slanting tree branches scraped across her cheeks, bringing a sting of pain that was quickly replaced by new wounds.
She was jostled so severely that she felt as though her insides were about to spill out. Her voice trembled as she tried to soothe Si Chu's emotions, "Child... little one, don't be afraid. In a moment, I'll hold you, and we... we will jump off the horse together!"
