Part 4/8:
Gandalf's urgent quest led him to mount a horse named Shadowfax, who was said to be born at the dawn of the world—described as "tireless" and "swift as the wind.” This majestic horse had a unique fur demeanor that shone with silver by day and became shadowy at night, aptly capturing the essence of Gandalf’s mission. The name Shadowfax, translated from the original "Sharaelfax," underscores the connection to shadows and speed.
