It's not every day a blood bathed hippogryph walks into your house. I can help but stare as the oddity wanders over the boarder and into my woods. It's strange enough to pique my interest, and lure me away from my lounging. Truthfully, it was the noise that first tipped me off to the intruder. Hippogryph, I have learned, are dreadfully noisy creatures.
I should hesitate when I approach. A little caution goes a long way when encountering something as volatile as this. It really does. I've long since discounted caution, however, and saunter up to the beastly thing without much thought.
"You need a bath," I declare. On closer inspection, this proves exceptionally true. Gore is drying on the feathered head, blackening the beak I can only assume is responsible for the mess. My nose wrinkles delicately at the stench of blood and bowel. "Come this way," an order, not a request. If this thing was going to spend any amount of time in my domain, it would be clean about it.
Still, a bit of mess was acceptable. If it came with this kind of entertaining interjection to my day.
