* A more ''literal'' example in the Aarne-Thompson-Uther Index tale type ATU 314, "Goldener" or "The Youth Transformed to a Horse": it's the ''horse'' that rescues the protagonist from danger, carrying him away on its back. In the tale type, the protagonist (a boy or a youth) is hired by an employer of mysterious origin. One day, while he is away, the hero opens a door and finds a talking horse that warns him that his employer wants to devour him. The boy and the horse escape to another kingdom, and the horse advises him to become a gardener in the king's court, and eventually helps the hero marry a princess. In some variants, the horse is actually the princess's brother, cursed into equine form:

** ''[[https://sacred-texts.com/neu/rft/rft05.htm The Hermit's Foundling with the Golden Hair]]'' (Romania).
