Mmhmm. [He remembers quite well the time everyone had that fever, Korrin, when you and Cyril wanted to climb stares while delirious.]

Well you be careful too. I still don't know exactly what a nuggalope is but it sounds like they can do some damage if you aren't careful.

[gatheringstorm]

The Avvar said they have horns. Can you imagine, a nug with horns? I can't wait to see them, and prove Kas wrong. He was looking at me like I grew another head when I mentioned it earlier.

[el_tybs]

I... can imagine a nug with horns easily, but still trying to picture something to the scale of being ridden.

[He's still just picturing those small pink, sqeuaking ones around Skyhold, but the size of a ram or something.]

[gatheringstorm]

[She chuckles, crossing her arms.]

I know, right? It's not like Leliana's often-wayward pets make it easy on that end.

Shokrakar said they were big enough even for qunari to ride them, so I think we'll be fine. At least they should be sturdier than dracolisks. I always think their spindly legs are going to snap whenever I ride them.

[And horses will do, but...a horned mount. Korrin needs this, okay.]

[el_tybs]

[They have harts, too, Korrin, but he gets the point.]

Yeah, dracolisks do seem like you can snap them in half if you aren't careful.

Sooo these things are huge then. Bigger then a horse I take it?

[gatheringstorm]

[Harts are absolutely not the same, Sam. She nods, brow furrowing.]

Maybe more bear-sized, from what I'm hearing? Though not bigger than that. Honestly, I'm not sure how something so large can be such a mystery, but they seem to have a knack for it.

[el_tybs]

Bear sized?

[That's pretty damn big Korrin.]

Well bears have been able to sneak up on people, so not surprising that something that big can elude people.

[gatheringstorm]

Yeah, but to the point where a lot of people doubt they exist? That's pretty damn impressive. But since Honey Badger Hold has said otherwise, they do, and it's our job to bring them out from the shadows.

...here's hoping I don't break anything.

[el_tybs]

Well, didn't see many dragons before and now it seems we're always running into one somewhere.

[Course maybe that was because he had been stuck in a tower, but still.]

Please don't break anything. I know I'm coming along just in case, but I'd rather not see you or anyone get hurt either.
