Through the tranquility of a mid-summer night came the flash of lightning. It lit up the air and blinded the creatures below. The sound of thunder cracking like a whip rode the air, breaking whatever peace remained to the night. The downfall of rain was next to follow, the hurricane moving above the mountain with rapid speed. Wind lashed against the trees, splitting them and dropping them to the ground like twigs. The lake beneath the mountain was tormented by the wind, causing it to rise and create waves like the ocean. Those waves crashed against the mountain, rising up it's steep slope steadily. One wave broke against the mountain, flooding a hidden cave in it's side. As the water spilled from the cave, so did a creature unlike anything ever seen upon Lenova before. The creature took to the air on steady wings, riding the storm easily. It's taken refuge in the woods that cover the mountain, even though the storm has since passed and it's cave is habitable once more.
Since it's left hiding, the creature has been seen by masters and slaves alike. Rumor has it that the creature possesses the paws of a lion, the wings of an eagle; that it has a lion's mane and tail, and it's horned like a unicorn not once, but thrice. A monster hunt has been organized by those brave enough to seek out the creature's existence. Others have started looking for it with the intention of proving it doesn't exist. What about you? Do you believe this creature is real, or is it something the slaves have made up? Will you seek it out, or ignore it?
Contest Rules;;
