After the Tukan Eagle Knights delved into the Great Valley, they split into two.
A large portion of them, brimming with momentum, advanced along the Grand Road, with a very clear goal: the City of Usmer at the western end of the Grand Road.
A smaller segment shifted direction, flying directly towards the Laisel Forest to the south. Leading them was a particularly unique giant eagle, not only twice the size of a typical Prairie Giant Eagle, reaching an enormous size, but with feathers as if drenched in fresh blood, gleaming red and surrounded by a faint blood mist.
However, upon closer inspection, it became clear that this blood mist didn't originate from the Blood Eagle itself, but from its rider, whose true face was obscured. The blood mist seemed almost alive, swirling around him.
The piercing lethal aura it emitted compelled the other Tukan Eagle Knights to keep a distance of nearly a hundred meters.
