DEIMOS
Deimos had experience with landsharks.
And though it meant he’d acquired Zuriel in the process, the events unfolding beforehand hadn’t been very pleasant.
Ordinarily, he might not have even bothered. He was already a predator in the ongoing circle of life, understood beings needed to hunt, and prey had means to defend themselves. It was a cycle, age-old, primordial, and calculated through survival of the fittest.
But he also had a protective, guarding, irreverent streak far greater than necessary, and so he proceeded at the first signs of fins circling the grounds, his unicorn pressed nearby. Zuriel’s trials and tribulations with the aforementioned animals were clear as day, and even more unpleasant than the Sword’s. She remained close, but not gliding through as he did, his eagle eyes going briefly to Amun, barely noticing the rock intending to sail.
Instead, he concentrated his efforts on the landsharks below, compelling more raptors, more birds of prey, intending for them to seethe and assail, to distract and deter, to fly overhead and make quick escapes, evasions, while he watched and witnessed from above; pondering when it would be best for him to unfurl and strike too.
