Through an arrow loop in the wall she saw a familiar horse and rider tearing across the camp toward the healing rooms. Brigan pulled up at Nash's feet and dropped from the saddle. The two brothers threw their arms around each other and embraced hard. Shortly thereafter he stepped into the healing rooms and leaned in the doorway, looking across at her quietly. Brocker's son with the gentle gray eyes. She abandoned all pretense of decorum and ran at him. Kristin Cashore
About This Quote

“Through an arrow loop in the wall she saw a familiar horse and rider tearing across the camp toward the healing rooms. Brigan pulled up at Nash's feet and dropped from the saddle. The two brothers threw their arms around each other and embraced hard.”This quote is an example of how fiction can be used to bring up issues that are real life. A fictional character in a novel or short story uses his abilities of reading minds to get information about people's feelings toward him.

He then uses that information to help him in his decisions of who he wants to know for himself when he finds them "by an arrow loop in the wall." This is accomplished when the character finds out who is good and who is bad by reading their minds. The characters in "The Magician's Nephew" must use similar abilities such as this to find out who they should trust when they see a familiar horse and rider tearing across the camp toward the healing rooms. When he gets there, he finds out that it is his brother, so he knows that his brother will help him when he finds himself lost in a strange place in which he has never been before.
