One of the main reasons why Amikans conquered so many tribes and carved an entire kingdom for themselves despite their meager numbers was the See-Ehm-Eitsch
A beast never seen before on this continent, it serves as the primary mode of transport for Amikans, who can cover distances which not even the best rangers can hope to match on land
The CMH (as they are formally known) are a closely kept secret of the Amikans, for no horse was ever born on this land, only grown in secret vats hidden deep in the Blykste mountain - an ancient relic left behind by an unknown peoples
Nowadays open battles are mostly a thing of the past, but the glorious legacy of mounted Amikan warriors lives on in a caste called knights, but where as these mighty warriors of the past were feared by all and their swords were rarely not stained by blood, modern knights use their CMH to stroll through the country-side to impress the locals with their wealth and status
