Back down in Woodport, Umbra seems to have woken up and made his way to the gigantic tree in the forest. He sits among the enormous roots that poke above the surface with an acoustic guitar, lighting a candle nearby for a small amount of light. While his colorful rings and eyes emitted a soft, teal-ish light, it wasn't enough light to see anything with. He starts warming up with a few soft chords.
State is still back at the house, unaware of the black-furred creature's 'escape.'

"Well at least you're alive eh?"  Shrugging, he stepped aside as the bird thing named remy face-planted a tree, he kind of glanced awkwardly at them before looking back up to Danu and Anomaly guy.

Zeureis meanwhile changed her attention to bird thing.  "And what are you supposed to be, an overgrown chocobo?"  She teased it with aa relaxed venomless tone, leaning on the tree slightly looking down at Remy with a soft laugh.

"We're right in front of you." Sure enough, there's a bunch of Guards on the mountain with them that originally came to confront whatever was enslaving people.
"Yeah, don't. We can't put him in danger. There's no telling what'll happen if any of us die, him included. He's already being put under enough stress and confusion, anyway."

Danu jumps when she hears this. "I was not expecting that one."

She reaches over and pets Remy, shrugging and laughing a little as she looks to Umbra and Zeureis.

A mist starts to creep along the forest floor, traveling against the wind. This late in the day it seems highly unnatural for such a thing to be forming.

Spoiler

to put things in perspective Remy has a body like a black bear but with a much more slight build but also a fair bit more pudgy. The lower half having a decent pot belly that hangs down a bit and rather appropriately sized hindquarters and somewhat wide hips to match and provide effeminate features. The limbs are sort of short and thick as under the layer of fat there is a very good amount of muscles as is true for most of Remy's body, making them look slightly less frail. The... Mammaries (here we go) exist as one pair as would on a humanoid creature and are SLIGHTLY prominent but do not really tell the gender with their shape. The shoulders are somewhat narrow but support both their arms with surprisingly dexterous paws capable of mine manipulation, and a set of truly MASSIVE and sturdy wings that can easily keep Remy's hefty figure aloft for extended periods but on the ground they look more like a rather unpleasant burden to bear as they usually drag and hang limp if Remy stands bipedal this aids with balance.

The head of the gryphon sports a falcon like shape with a short hooked black beak with a gray line over the nostrils. The ears are very long and sort of shaped like an Avali's, or possibly a Rabbit. The tail is long and rather thick like a Snow leopard's, and the eyes are falcon like with emerald green on the inside and the edge of the iris being a ring of sapphire blue. In terms of plumage the feathers are long, densely packed, mildly shaggy and quite scruffy and smoke gray with silver wing tips. The scruff behind and atop the head is quite long and dense and like the thick chest and cheek feathers can fluff up and move with the mood. The stomach and lower chest are covered in a silvery gray coat being more like short and extremely soft baby down feathers.

Zeurei description

An Avali of dark fur and feather, his tone is technically dyed to hide his natural coat.  Currently it is dyed Deep purple with small teal markings with the tip of each feather marked with the same teal.  His natural tone is pure white, which is quite disconcerting in appearance upon Avali, especially since the glow of his eyes makes his fur seem to shimmer when it isn't dyed.  He currently wears a form fitting pale green robe that hides most of his form from vision down to his toes.  His left leg is an adjustable prosthetic with hard-light fittings that automatically adjust to the body, only requiring cleaning as with standard bodily pruning.  It runs off of a neural lace at the base of his spine

Zeureis Description

At the same height as Zeurei and with almost the same body and head shape.  If it weren't for her hips she'd look like a male Avali, specifically her brother.  Like her brother she has her fur and plumage dyed, although hers is bright red with gold highlights in bands.  It is naturally the same as her brothers.  Pale bone white, and shimmers with her ability active.  She is currently wearing heavy grey hooded robes that sag to the ground.  She looks more like a human child in an oversized coat as it were than any kind of avali.  Her right arm is an adjustable prosthetic with hard-light fittings that automatically adjust to the body as it moves completely removing wear and irritation, only requiring cleaning as with standard bodily pruning.  It runs off of a neural lace at the base of her skull.

Sandrise description

She is a relatively large cat with a coat of softened blade-like scales that harden when she is annoyed or threatened.  She is a scant arid white.  Although at first glance she looks quite small, when standing at full size rather than curled up she is quite sizable standing nearly 4 feet tall and 5 long.  Her eyes are always alight with the blue glow.

//That would be impossible, as feathers would not fit such a shape and form as avali have.  If that were so, then they'd have bald legs head and tail.  As well as bald arms other than their winglets.  They are mostly covered in fur as the protective layer to account for what would be relatively thin skin, with feathers and plumage at appropriate areas that would lighten their movement using updrafts and angling as they move.  (as well as for flaunting) Without hollow bones and with such small winglets they would be unable to do more than glide, them being small and agile they can climb well, but on mountainous terrain, minor gliding is useful by skipping sections of terrain and being able to move swiftly from higher elevations to lower.  Otherwise the entire idea of them as a race would be flawed and I don't like flaws.

//TL;DR:  there is no tl;dr.

Speaking of the Hierophant, it's getting closer to the summit with every second that passes.

"Right. So... I'll just..." Umbra starts strumming some warm-ups again.
He doesn't notice the mist, which may or may not be a good thing.
