CHAPTER 8: TRAVEL TO THE NEW WORLD

During the journey, the team of 200 wings men and beasts enjoy the colors of dawn, they can feel the wind rubbing their bodies in a sign of freedom.

For safety reasons, every 15 men were appointed a squad leader, out of 50, the remaining five will be divided among the teams.

And of course, to control DWYER a little bit, he's not a leader in the expedition.

There are some animals in the sea that come out of the sea at the same time as they advance by diving back into infinite jumps.

DWYER himself is the most excited, being able to feel free in the air, enjoying the gusts of wind, HAFU is aware of the emotions of his rider and prepares to bypass the gusts to the delight of DWYER.

After an exciting walk, they rejoin the formation.

They notice that in the distance you can already see on the horizon that there is earth.

They say you have to stick to the plan.

They must not interfere with the humans of the new world.

Preferably that taps, phoenixes and qilines are not seen and stay out of contact as much as possible.

They don't know how humans in these lands will react?

Maybe there are no specimens like them on this side of the world.

They find that this new land is composed of many islands on the horizon, in which some buildings, girls and huge ones rise on other islands.

Where they are closest, there are large buildings, on top of some mountains and mountains.

On the first island they cross is large, it seems divided in two.

They begin to approach the place.

Everything seems to be in apparent calm, you have noticed that for a few thousand meters, there are no animals in the sea.

They approach cautiously, about 300 meters away, emerges from the waters a kraken... few had seen it but many knew of its existence.

That beast was huge, it looked like a giant snake, in the spine its bones stand out like thorns and possesses large, sharp teeth like swords, dark and brown eyes.

Catching one of the faucets along with his rider, the others react by skiing him.

That monster, he's capable of giving a deafening roar.

The fliers dodge aggression as much as they can and depart from that place, being chased for a few miles.

The beast spins in the water to lift the waves trying to knock them down.

So you have to go higher until you lose it.

A group of 50 will turn the island around for inspection.

Counselor DWYER, he decides to stick with the other group, he's hungry to see.

There are more islands ahead.

He thinks humans would live on some other island away from such a monster.

On one of the following islands, they see that there are many small houses gathered, some of them in the group decide to stay here, to inspect, among them DWYER.

There are humans and he wants to see them.

Other groups will follow other islands.

They say good-bye to the agreement that they will see the return of their expedition until they reach the council kingdom.

The DWYER group is hidden among the trees.

Following what is agreed with the flying comrades not to be seen, they will wait for them until their return, unless they hear a sound of help coming from a horn that each of the leaders brings and must intervene for the escape.

Being human, they believe it is easier for them to approach without causing fuss.

A group of 17 men, including DWYER, leaves the wooded area towards the village, around it they see crops and some humans, it is a vast field and there are numerous humans collaborating on various things.

Some sowing, plogging, others removing herbs or picking vegetables.

Gradually those humans realize their presence and turn them to see, the clothes of the expeditionaries, it is extremely different from that of the villagers, they look strange, they are far from the materials they use.

While those who have come wear leather-made clothing, they even wear boots made of leather, shirts and metal weapons.

Locals wear fabrics made of loom and joined by bows, on their feet they wear wooden sandals and leather tied by threads.

The skin of humans is also different, those who have come have skins of different color, dark hair, dark eyes mostly and more defined features.

While the locals are white-skinned, thin, almost feminine, brown-haired factions in different shades, some are blond, with green, blue and grey eyes.

They look at them suspiciously and make the atmosphere tense for a moment as they see that expeditionaries carry weapons.

They move one by one towards their village at a hasty pace.

The group of humans is certain that they should not approach.

They're afraid of them.

So they start the retreat, at a bit of a hurry without running, they don't know what those humans have planned, they'll investigate further, by far.

Watching.

They return with the other comrades and decide to change places, they will visit another island.

They rise in flight in the direction drawn from the start.

It is an interesting world, although they have seen that it will be almost impossible for them to mix, their traits are totally different.

They're following the flight.

Not far from there, they find a set of 3 seemingly abandoned islands, they are small compared to the others, there are ruined temples and claimed by vegetation, the group of 50 is divided into 3 to inspect the 3 islands.

The DWYER group is the first to take the first island, the others will go to the next ones.

The appearance of that temple is somewhat tetric, the pillars dirty, wrapped with plants and with the walls and ceiling of dubious stability, as if they had endured more than one earthquake and still stand.

Between the pillars, the entrance is somewhat narrow, the riders agree with their flying comrades that they will inspect through the air the rest of the island.

They come in together, they're well armed, so nothing should happen.

That said, humans enter the temple.

The light sneaks through the pillars, letting it see its interior in half light.

Inside, the temple is spacious, full of pillars every 3 meters.

The floor of it seems to be stained with something dark, like making way for something that was dragged.

There's a somewhat unpleasant smell, not so penetrating, but it smells bad.

As they progress, the light loses its quality, there comes a time when the leader of the group says that they should no longer enter, they must return, look for ways to make torches, if they do not find materials, they will terminate the inspection.

The group begins to advance back, when something catches their attention, among those ruins you hear some regrets... they look like women's sounds crying.
