Discovery notes: Earning a bond; Caring for a bonded unicorn

Earning a bond

Become a Friend of Lothlórien and hold Elanor to lure a unicorn. Offer 3 Elanor flowers, leaving at least 10 seconds between accepted offers. Trust remains between visits. Accepted offers restore up to 2 health points. The bond belongs to the player who completes it.

Caring for a bonded unicorn

The bonded owner can offer Elanor to heal an injured unicorn. That interaction heals instead of mounting; at full health the owner mounts normally. Bonded unicorns can swim, and you receive a message if yours dies. They take ordinary fall damage and do not regain health passively: use Elanor to care for them.
