Donas was a large sorrel stallion at Castle Leoch, and later at Lallybroch. Ill-tempered and vicious, Donas could not be ridden by anyone but the most skilled rider.

Dragonfly in Amber[]

Jamie returns to Culloden House and finds Old Alec in the empty stables. After being told that the men ate the horses some days past, Jamie becomes emotional and laughs at himself for crying over the loss of Donas. Old Alec then informs him that Donas is still alive, and was in fact taken by Prince Charles Stuart to ride for his supposed triumphal return to Edinburgh.

A short time later, Jamie entrusts Fergus with the Deed of Sasine and tells him to take Donas to deliver it to Lallybroch.

"Fergus was speechless with alarmed excitement, but Murtagh frowned dubiously at him.

"D'ye think the bairn can manage yon wicked beast?" he said.

"Aye, he can," Jamie said firmly. Overcome, Fergus stuttered, then sank to his knees and kissed Jamie's hand fervently."
