The Pirates of Pacta Servanda (Pillars of Reality book 4)

She glared at him. “I don’t have good experiences with giant birds. You do remember that, don’t you?”

“I will speak with the Mage,” Alain said.
“You will not get within reach of that thing’s beak or claws!” Mari objected.
“I will take care,” Alain said.

The Mage riding the giant creature patted the Roc’s neck.MoreLess
