fine I'll spend time with the damn bird

Zephyr gave a warrior’s cry as he broke out into the daylight, extending his wings immediately into the empty air and beating them hard to bring him back into flight. It was difficult to pick up speed with the incline remaining as steep as it was, but up ahead he could see it begin to slope back down and into a long stretch of smooth stone. Azure was not far ahead of him, he could make it.

As he reached the plateau Zephyr let his talons land briefly upon the rock, buckling his knees down to put his belly low to the ground and pushing hard to jump himself into the air - for greater height, and greater gliding capabilities. His wings were tired but his adrenaline was pumping hard. Along the smoothened plateau they raced, bright blue eyes set firm upon the looming stone structure and the doorway that marked the finish line.
