Sam nodded along with Jigano's explanation, relieved to find a possible concrete reason why he wouldn't be expected to use the bow. He had little idea how, beyond what he'd read in books; doubted he had the strength for it anyway. The bow was heavy and awkward on his back and he wasn't even sure how to pull it out.
Jigano turned for him to get back on, but Sam hesitated. He had said he was going to go to sleep for the night, which would mean Jigano would be left, well...here. The horse seemed to not consider that though, talking on about silver and gold. Sam nodded along but wondered if the logic was really so straightforward. It did sound like a fairytale, which he supposed was fitting.
"I was thinking of things that might be gold. I'm not sure what the plan is. A-At least we'll look good?" He nervously laughed, not usually one to make jokes.
He started to step up onto Jigano, but paused halfway up, laying with his front across the saddle.
"Do you think time here passes normally? If there is to be a night then I shall go to the palace and um, you...well you would have to....Maybe we can make it the next day immediately somehow?"
