Description
A paper horse is brought to life by a magician and brings only bad luck instead of good. After running away from his creator, Wah-Toong, and living amongst the wild horses, he returns, but causes only more bad luck. Finally, when a war breaks out, the horse brings peace to both parties and is honored with the name "Good-Luck Horse".
