>>5299949The battle rages in the sky as well, as the monastery’s Pegasus Knights do battle with the Wyvern Riders sent from the Empire. You look closely to see if you spot Rex, however from where you’re at, it’s far too hard to tell. These mounted riders aren’t the only ones doing battle in the sky though.
“Are those…flying Demonic Beasts?” Corrine asks aloud.
Sure enough, they are. Supporting the wing of Wyvern Riders from the Empire are several winged Demonic Beasts. The creatures are engaged with the Pegasus Knights, breathing fire and attempting to buffet the enemy with their massive wings and claws. While engaged directly with the Pegasus Knights, you note the Wyvern Riders of the Empire are doing their best to stay away from the beasts, indicating that they don’t possess full capacity to tell friend from foe.
>“It looks like they’ve been set loose on the Knights of Seiros. Someone in league with the Empire must have been involved with the creation of these beasts.” A vile thought. If there was a part of you that regretted your decision to defect from the Empire, the scene in front of you emboldens the idea that you made the right choice. “This is horrible, and I’ve certainly seen enough. Let’s go before we’re found.” You spur Beathan away from the battle, attempting to go around the chaos and make your way in the direction of Faerghus.“I believe we’re a bit too late for that.”
You hear a loud roar and turn around to find the source. A winged Demonic Beast. Somehow it had made its way around the Knights and was making a beeline in your direction. Despite its large size, the creature is fast. Perhaps much faster than Beathan.
>You groan. “Just our luck. We may have a fight on our hands.”“What do you mean we!?” Corrine shouts. “I don’t have wings, Blair! If anyone’s fighting here, it’s you!”
>“Well, you can at least heal Beathan or I if we get hurt, right?!”“Possibly! I’ve never tried healing anyone hundreds of feet in the air. And I’m no Linhardt. I can heal only minor wounds at best!”
The beast roars again, drawing closer.
