Honestly horses could have the most deep and intriguing reasons to be void coded but that will never erase the fact that hussie just really frickin likes horses. (But to go with that what if horses were void coded because of the death of the author, with hussie becoming irrelevant and obscure to the story.. and him just really liking horses)

Shit. I hate that this actually makes sense, god dammit this is a really good guess.
