Bumbeak

Mysterious and majestic
With the head of a bald eagle
Talons of a bird
Wings of a dragon
Body, feet, and tail of a dragon

It could easily be mistaken
For a griffin
The colors are alike
But it's hind feet are different
I shudder as I saw it

"Welcome to my lair!
I'm Zelibazo. May I ask you
Why do you dare wake me
Up from my slumber?"
Zelibazo asked.

"I'm in of great need
For fear the enemy has risen
And you are of a great legend
To conquer the enemy at hand,"
I replied.
