You expect to find all sorts of things when you go out walking, and you know what dangers to expect depending on where it is you choose to take your stroll. Having a giant pair of talons wrapping around your shoulders and hoisting you into the air...isn't one of them.
Just like that, the ground beneath you is gone and you find yourself soaring through the open blue sky. It's a bit hard to tell just what snatched you up. But judging by the long trail of vibrant blue and green feathers behind you, it might be some sort of giant peacock?? Do peacocks even grow that big?! Whatever this thing is, it's surprisingly gentle in the way its talons hold onto you. Tight enough to keep you from falling, but each claw is careful to not dig into your skin.
As quickly as you found yourself whisked away into the endless blue, you find yourself deposited in an almost startlingly large birds nest. It's surprisingly nice, lined with silk pillows and shiny trinkets among other little oddities. It's only now, though, that you get a good look at your captor. Harpies were said to be a thing of legend, but as the towering man sits down before you and crosses his bird-like legs, it's hard to deny that they're very real!
"You have very pretty eyes, y'know that? I promise I'll take you back in a bit, but for now...why don't we have ourselves a nice chat~?"
He's...rather casual about all of this, a little too much so.
