The caster should prepare a magic circle before casting this spell. The spell summons 16 knightly figures. They may be ordered to summon their subordinates who will come and bring dishes, and make a grand banquet, with games, singing, music-making and dancing, and in general all those things that can gladden the hearts of those standing about. Splendid pages will come and prepare beautiful tables. When these are set, trumpets, harps and an untold multitude of songs will be heard. Water will be brought when ordered. Likewise, the meal. And there will be butlers and stewards serving excellently, and handsome pages, and players providing countless entertainment. And you can have a thousand types of dish brought, if it pleases you, and those who eat them will find them uncommonly delicious. When ordered, the tables will be removed. And when ordered, the entertainment will depart. Like all illusions, the food will fail to nourish. Care is given to make sure the caster does not leave the circle until the meal is finished

This spell may only be cast in an abandoned room. The magus touches the ground where the steed is to appear, then must exit, for if the spot is watched, the steed will not answer the call. In a stress die x 5 minutes, a bridled jet black steed appears. Its snorting and stomping herald its appearance. The steed is twice as fast as any normal horse and unafraid of its summoner. It will travel anywhere its rider demands. At the moment that its rider dismounts, the horse vanishes leaving the rider holding an empty bridal. At any point before the spells expiration, the caster may shake the bridal, causing the steed to reappear, bridal affixed.

This lab text describes and gives a +9 lab bonus for the creation of this bridal. The bridal is made of leather, with a bit carved from horse bone (+7 form/effect bonus) requires 5 animal vis. When completed, his lesser enchanted device will posses a CrAn 45 enchantment that can be used 3 times per day and only by the enchanter himself. When he shakes the bridal in the air, a jet black steed immediately forms, bridled. This animal will accept the magus as a rider and take him where he wills. It vanishes at sunrise, sunset, or when dismounted.
