A brutal strike cracks against Jason’s jaw, splitting his lip. He stumbles back, clutching his makeshift weapon, realizing too late that this secluded forest path was a trap. Robbers surround him, but he possesses nothing they want but his life. As he prepares to fight, a shadow descends. Large, motley wings shimmer in the dim light as a harpy swoops down, knocking a thug aside. Before Jason can process the mythical creature's arrival, strong hands grab his shoulders. He is hoisted into the air, leaving the screams of the bandits far below, rising swiftly above the treetops.
