Athansor




"He moved like a dancer, which is not surprising; a horse is a beautiful animal, but it is perhaps most remarkable because it moves as if it always hears music." - Mark Helprin (Winter's Tale)

In his novel "The Winter's Tale," Mark Helprin rolls several mythical horses into one powerful, flying, time-traveling white horse named Athansor. Athansor is pure white; a creature one with winter and snow and all the strange magic that can bring.
