Description
“It was quiet for a moment. The horses stood looming over the pack, the villagers made no sound and had seemingly locked up, preventing them from moving. Moments later, the pack could make out the sounds of beating wings. They felt the push of air above them, and Astrid was able to make out the newest monstrosity to make itself known to them. The creature landed atop a building, and climbed its way down, digging its forewings into the structure to come down without issue. It shuffled to one of her pack, tattered wings, seemingly incapable of flight yet achieving it anyways, dragging its inverted body and head towards her people. It let out a roar, and thrust its stinger into the shoulder of one of her men. It continued this process, not killing them, and their captors started to walk them away after the sting. Their screams pierced her eardrums. As the creature approached her and raised its tail, she jolted to the side, the stinger lodging itself into the villager that held her. It released its grip on her and she sprinted, the only way to go being even deeper into Perameridian. ”
