Horse

Horse is a beast for mounting and travelling. A mule is an offspring of a horse.
Sir Galahad left Camelot mounted on a horse, to find the Grail. He left it at Southampton in order to sail for the Far East. Rollin' Jack, the harbourmaster, sent his horse and the mule back to Camelot. The two beasts remained in the castle's Courtyard until King Arthur took them with him on his quest to rescue his knights and find the Grail.
Arthur left Camelot mounted and used the horse mainly to travel to Forest Perilous. On the horse he fought the boars and the Black Knight. However he later had to mount wounded Gawaine on the horse, and continue his quest on foot, a noble sacrifice for his holy quest. The horse brought Gawaine back to Camelot.
==Behind the scenes==
In the game, the horse has several sprites, both alone and with Arthur mounted, in that case it becomes part of the player's sprite. See also: Arthur's appearance
;Small: The first appearance of the horse in the Camelot Courtyard, including the horse and the mule.
;Large: The normal appearance of the horse throughout most of Arthur's journey through England.
If Arthur attempts to walk on frozen Ot Moor mounted, the horse will turn back.
If Arthur proceeds past Gawaine to the stone circle and attempts to pass it mounted, there is a special animation of the horse being electrified and stepping back. If he solves the riddles and attempts again to pass, he will be teleported, but the horse will stay behind. After Arhur is released from Glastonbury Tor, the horse has left; Merlin says that it was terrified and returned by itself to Camelot.
