The idea is that the way horses walk is fundamentally the same way people walk; the up-and-down motion, the rhythm. It’s supposed to help with balance and speech.

Since Namine has scoliosis, the way she sits is a little crooked. Lopsided, you might say. The way she scoots on the floor to get around is always on one hip, so that might exacerbate things a little.
