[Straylor Leonard]

OoC: self-moderation approved by AGM LostWalker. Will secure approval from GM Soldier.

The walk back to the Skyrider academy was equally as uneventful as the previous brightening save for the fact that getting checked-in and asked to remove all weapons was no longer necessary. "Didn't bring any", Straylor smiled before awaiting his escort. It was the same female rider who accompanied Stray before. When asked what his intentions were this time around, Stray simply asked to be around the magestic creatures a while longer while he practiced his druidism.

"No attack spells or anything that could hinder the riders and their mounts", the woman said firmly, "we don't want to have to arrest and fine you for endangering our academy."

"Of course", Stray nodded reassuringly, "just some spells to help me understand more, if you will."

With that, Stray was led into the familiar compound with an open roof where gryffins both mounted and unmounted were arriving and flying off at great speeds. Stray could only watch in awe as the winged creatures glided, spun, and maneuvered in the skies. It was a sight to behold and envy at the same time.

Finding a reasonable position on the ground, Straylor began to meditate and allow his mind to transcend above the Plane of the Material using his Wand as an aide to propel the process. Once he gathered enough Ara to mix with his Vis, Stray produced the Mana necessary to gather the Nature Essence he needed to make the spell Detect. With the spell he hoped to keep a close watch on the surrounding gryffins and observe their movements and behaviors that way.
