You were part of a royal expedition team sent to explore an area as of yet unexplored. It was a simple assignment to look for resources that the royal family could use or sell, but with the chance of encountering hostel creatures, it almost always wasn't simple.
That being said after six weeks your team stumbled onto the remains of a granite quarry that looked like it hadn't been used for ten or fifteen years. It was fairly recent and concerning. Who or what was pulling a rock out of here knew what they were doing. But what was it for? Whatever the answers may have been it was marked on the map and the team moved on.
The rest of the expedition went without incident, that was until someone found a little girl hiding in a small cave. The girl was asleep until the guy screamed out for everyone to come over, which caused her to woke up in a panic. She was making hissing sounds and had open her wings in a defensive manner.
She couldn't be human although she looked human before she opened her wings.although one of her wings was slightly pulled in. Was she hurt? If so it would probably explain part of why she was there but at the same time brought up more questions like where she came from and where she was going. More importantly, why was she hurt and was whatever did it a threat to the group?
