Malhandir

Malhandir is the best of all the steeds of Ulthuan, the last of the family of Korhandir, the father of horses. Malhandir was a gift from the Ellyrian Elves to Prince Tyrion as a sign of gratitude for the rescue of the Everqueen, moments before the battle of the Finuval Plain, since then it has been his mount.

Fast as the wind, strong and faithful to the death, Malhandir understands the elven language, although Tyrion rarely needs to issue any order, since between them there is an invisible bond. No other mount is capable of interpreting its desires in the same way at the slightest signs. Like all of its line, the prince of the horses possesses an acute intelligence that far exceeds that of the lesser beasts, and even eclipses that of many creatures that walk on two legs.

Although invariably Malhandir will always be next to Tyrion in battle, he is free to follow his own will at any other time. The friendship of the horse with Teclis and Alarielle is only a fraction less pronounced than the loyalty he feels towards his master, and often acts as messenger for Teclis or wanders freely through the forest of Avelorn when Tyrion has no need of his services. Of course, all this comes to an end when the sharp whistle of Tyrion rings in the air, summoning him. Malhandir will use every last of his famous speed to return to his master's side, ready for battle once more.
