Описание

Famously depicted as a stunning white horse with a spiraled horn, the unicorn is said to gallop throughout the wilds of the world away from mankind. It cannot be subdued by brute force alone, though that would not stop many hunters from attempting it. A famous legend, but where did the myth of the unicorn begin?
