Mesnaderos
The Mesnaderos are the royal retinue cavalry of the Pyrenean crowns — the armored household knights who ride at the direct service of the king of Navarre or Aragon. Organized under the ancient obligation of the mesnada, these warriors are bound by personal loyalty and contract to their sovereign, forming a reliable core of experienced heavy cavalry that can be dispatched where the feudal levy would be too slow or unreliable.
