Spanish term or phrase: pifiaba emocionado
— Tú no tienes la culpa, Erik — levantó la mano, aún temblorosa y acunó su mejilla —llévame a casa por favor. Él asintió levantándola en brazos, como si fuera un ser delicado y frágil, la llevó hasta Gullfaxi que pifiaba emocionado y montaron sobre él. Luego, la cubrió con su capa.

Gullfaxi is a horse that has a lot of personality, but he's just witnessed how the woman was saved by Erik from being killed. as well as how Erik just killed his brother with a dagger.
