Vanaheimir

A strong wind blew towards them as they glided through the sky on the back of the glowing bird that was just summoned. 

The Elder turned around, looking towards the pair intensely, squinting against the rush of wind. "Hang on!!" 

The bird flew so quickly against the direction of the wind that it threatened to blow them away. Fortunately though, both Emery and Klea had enough upper body strength to grasp the glowing bird's feathers tightly enough to hold them in place. 

The truth is, Emery felt a little uncomfortable flying at such a height, but Klea, ever the adventurer, surprised both him and the Elder by screaming in excitement, an elated look plastered on her face. 

She even began to sweet talk the Elder, trying to convince him to teach her how to summon one of her own.

As it was going to be a day-long journey at the very least, the Elder was forced to explain to the two how the spirit realm worked, albeit with an exasperated tone of voice.
