Video - Early Ranir

[twistedempathy]

[The video doesn't start on Will's face this time. No, it turns on to show a matched set of two Xatu, rather than the one he's had for his entire stay in Havenwell. They both look quite comfortable; people Will regularly spends time with may have even already met this newcomer.]

Ainea found my other Xatu! Everyone, meet Vu!

[One of the Xatu ruffles her feathers a little and whistles a greeting, preening for the camera. Will turns the tablet to face him, beaming.]

Flying is one of my favorite things in the world! Hehehe, or should it be worlds, now? But now that both of them are here, I can share that with all of you and be up there to make sure you're safe while you do it. So, who wants flying lessons? If anyone is interested, just let me know or come drop by--I'll be waiting outside of Diacht's temple!

They are capable of carrying a human?

[twistedempathy]

They are! They may look a little fragile, but they're a lot stronger than they seem. They're probably even better suited for it than a lot of the more common fliers people use--even if they wouldn't be strong enough to carry a load normally, odds are pretty good they can make up the difference with psychic power.

[original_is_best]

That is quite impressive. That's a substantial amount of weight for creatures of their size.

How do they carry one?

[twistedempathy]

Isn't it?

[Listen to him glowing with pride as he talks about his babies. Who's the most embarrassing pet dad? It he!]

They're big enough to carry people on their backs, as long as you're careful not to get in the way of their wings!

What sort of equipment is used?

[twistedempathy]

Well, if you've got enough practice under your belt, you can just ride bareback. I do it all the time! But most people should use a safety harness. Those keep you in the right position to allow unobstructed flight, and make sure you can't fall off even if the weather gets rough.

[Will moves to prop the tablet up so he can use both hands, before holding one up to show off. Look, Magolor, your work is getting some free advertising!]

[original_is_best]

Interesting. And it is safe?

[twistedempathy]

Hehehe~ I'm still here, aren't I?
