Before Adora is given the Sword of Protection by The Sorceress of Castle Grayskull, Spirit is an ordinary horse. Adora had transformed into She-Ra and had saved her brother He-Man from Hordak's Magna-Beam Charger. Leaping out of the Magna Beam chamber, and into the Horde Stables, she lands on Spirit's back, and tells the horse to run to The Whispering Woods, but as she did so, the horse is suddenly surrounded by an energy field of the same enchantment that transformed Adora into She-Ra. It is at this point in time that Spirit is magically transformed into a majestic winged unicorn. From this moment onwards Spirit also possesses the power of speech.
