The Wing Guard
The Wing Guard, a renowned and distinguished force within the High Kingdoms, stands as a symbol of honor, loyalty, and aerial might. Comprised of elite soldiers and skilled griffon riders, they serve as the guardians of the sky and the protectors of the realm.
Formed under the command of the High King, the Wing Guard's primary duty is to ensure the safety and defense of the kingdom from airborne threats. They are responsible for patrolling the skies, scouting enemy movements, and engaging in aerial combat when necessary. With their griffon mounts, majestic creatures known for their speed, agility, and ferocity, the Wing Guard possesses a unique advantage in battle.
Led by the Captain of the Wing Guard, they are a force of highly trained warriors chosen for their exceptional skill, courage, and unwavering loyalty. The griffon riders undergo rigorous training, honing their bond with their majestic companions, fostering trust and synchrony that allows them to become an unstoppable aerial force.
In times of peace, the Wing Guard participates in ceremonial events and serves as an emblem of the kingdom's might, showcasing their aerial prowess through dazzling displays of flight. They are revered and respected by the people, embodying the embodiment of honor, chivalry, and protection.
During The Civil War of Tillain, the Wing Guard found themselves deeply embroiled in the conflict, torn between loyalty to the Boy King and their commander, Tolgaine Alontar, and the rival claim of Mathis Travinder III, the Prince of Flames. As the war raged on, the Wing Guard became a formidable presence in the skies, engaging in intense aerial battles against their fellow countrymen.
Their aerial superiority, honed through years of training and experience, made the Wing Guard a force to be reckoned with. The griffon riders soared through the clouds, executing daring maneuvers, and unleashing devastating attacks upon their foes. Their swift and lethal strikes from above disrupted enemy formations, striking fear into the hearts of their adversaries.
However, the Wing Guard also suffered internal divisions, with some members choosing to align themselves with the Prince of Flames, while others remained loyal to the Boy King. The once-unified force found itself torn apart by the conflicting loyalties and shattered friendships.
It was during the Battle of Tassendar Fields, the climactic confrontation of the civil war, that the Wing Guard faced its most devastating trial. In the skies above the battlefield, the griffon riders engaged in intense duels, their swords clashing and spells intertwining in a breathtaking display of skill and valor.
Tragically, the battle saw the fall of the Boy King and the demise of the Wing Guard's beloved commander, Tolgaine Alontar. Their loss dealt a severe blow to the morale and cohesion of the Wing Guard, as they witnessed the defeat of their cause and the fragmentation of their once-proud force.
The Wing Guard's involvement in the Civil War of Tillain serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by these noble warriors, torn between duty and conflicting loyalties. Their aerial prowess, unwavering dedication, and iconic griffon mounts have etched their legacy into the annals of Tillain's history, forever remembered as guardians of the sky and warriors of unparalleled skill.
