Paran’s mare is a warhorse of the finest Seven Cities stock, bred in the blood for generations and marked by a proud, unyielding strut. When she shies and bucks, her pinned ears, flared nostrils, and trembling muscles reveal her terror. Later, blood and fragments of flesh cover her as her hooves crunch across mosaic stones, turning her fierce composure into a grim image of the surrounding violence.

Description

A finely bred Seven Cities warhorse, the mare has a strong, conditioned frame and a proud, high-stepping carriage. Her ears pin back and her nostrils flare when she is frightened, while tension trembles through her muscles. The text gives no coat color, markings, or tack details; her most striking visual quality is her spirited, unyielding presence.
