GM, 84 posts Wed 14 Feb 2018 at 04:30 | A tangle of rootsThere appeared to be about a dozen winged quadrupeds, but she could see the sunlight glinting off of the metal in gear they were wearing. There were no signs of riders, however. They were accompanied by a larger quadruped, with a long twisting tail, but no wings. It appeared to be galloping on the air, striking sparks as it ran, reflecting off of a covering that was perhaps not fur. Scales or skin? The others seemed to be moving in response to it.
And it had no rider, either.

GM, 86 posts Fri 16 Feb 2018 at 03:58 | A tangle of roots"...yeah, that's the question," said Blue-Wings.
As they came closer, it was clear that they were armored and armed, which was not a good sign. They weren't rushing, and their weapons weren't actually drawn as yet (and how would quadrupeds even use them?) but there were definitely too many to fight.

GM, 88 posts Mon 19 Feb 2018 at 05:23 | A tangle of rootsThe flying forces approached; it was now clear that most of them were... griffins? But armed and armored griffins, with spurs on their claws, and lances mounted to their harness.
But the others! Some strange combination of dragon and horse, flying in the air without wings, armed with polearms that they carried in fore-claws... They would arrive in just a moment.

"Strangers, what do you so close to the Great City of Bells?" is asked in a deep, rumbling voice.
