Mystery Unveiled: The Heartbreaking Plight of Zelda's Tears of the Kingdom Horse

In The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, a devoted Zelda fan encounters a frustrating situation as their horse becomes trapped in a never-ending cycle while attempting to eat an apple. Within the game, players have the opportunity to tame and register wild horses at stables, which offer special rewards to Link when specific conditions are met.

After Link safely returns to Central Hyrule, players are free to explore the region, uncover hidden secrets and engaging quests, and progress through the main storyline of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. While exploring Hyrule, Link may come across groups of untamed horses that are often found roaming expansive open fields. By patiently mounting and soothing a wild horse, players can eventually calm it down and successfully tame it. Once the horse has been tamed, players can register it at a nearby stable by paying a mere 20 rupees and giving it a personalized name. Additionally, players can earn Pony Points, which unlock horse customization options and further rewards, by visiting a stable for the first time, registering a horse, or purchasing a bed.

Zelda enthusiast Malinblie had an unfortunate encounter with their loyal horse in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. The horse got stuck in an endless loop when an apple became lodged on its towing harness. Despite the presence of other apples nearby, Malinblie's horse seemed fixated on the one being dragged in circles, completely ignoring the rest.

In Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, players are able to own up to six horses simultaneously, but only one can be active at a time after registration. Upon dismounting, the horse typically remains in close proximity, observing its surroundings just as depicted in Malinblie's gameplay video. To enhance the bond between Link and his horse, players can feed the horse by offering an apple in Link's hand and bringing it near the horse's mouth. This act boosts the horse's understanding and strengthens the connection between the two.

It seems that Malinblie is causing the horse distress, but the gameplay clip serves as a reminder that players can feed the horse to improve its relationship with Link. In Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, apples are the horse's preferred food, so players may want to provide it with nourishment after a long and exhausting journey in Hyrule.

In addition, players of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom can reap additional benefits for their horse by seeking out the legendary horse deity, Malanya. While staying at a stable and sleeping in a Malanya bed, players can receive hints and peculiar messages from the horse god. By summoning Malanya, players have the option to revive a horse for Link or enhance its abilities.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available now for Nintendo Switch.
