Some kilometers away from the town Reynolds just visited.
A large figure could be seen in the sky of a fully abandoned town. The town was large, spanning hundreds of meters, but there was barely anyone present. It was as if it had been deserted.
Above the town, the figure with the body of a Lion, head of an Eagle, and massive wings hovered above it, looking down at the town with its menacing eyes. Its eyes were set on one place only, a large hill that was within the town boundaries.
The Griffin stayed in the sky for a while, inspecting the place, and after a few seconds, he dove down, heading straight for the hill.
Just as it was about to reach the hill, it sensed a powerful aura fast approaching. The aura was coming its way, and it could sense a little bit of threat from it. It wasn't enough to scare it away, but enough to make it wary.
It didn't focus on the hill anymore, rather, it turned to look at the aura rushing towards it.
