"Yes. And you must be Emma-dono. A pleasure to meet you in person." Tonbokiri bows slightly towards the girl, then turns towards the horse.
"Mikuniguro, this is Emma-dono. The place she is from doesn't have any horses, so show her your best, all right?"
Patting him firmly on the side Tonbokiri steps to stand to the side slightly. Mikuniguro, for his part, arches his neck proudly, then brings his face down slightly so that it is level with the little girl.
"You can pet his nose, if you like. Just stand to either side a little so that he can still see you. As you can see, a horse's eyes are very far to either side of their head, so seeing something directly in front of them is difficult."
