A drizzle as light as mist, frail yet persistent, enveloped a northern city in the Griffin Kingdom named 'Monta'.
The light rain was too weak to soak any passersby. 'Riley' decided to lift her hood, revealing her wine-red long hair. She was leading her little mare named 'Orange', walking on the spacious and clean streets of Monta City. 'Orange' was not remarkable in terms of stamina and speed, but it was gentle and understanding, perfect for someone like Riley who didn't ride very well.
Accompanying Riley were her two newly hired followers. The tall, fit man with a tattoo on his forehead was called 'Hilda', and the pale and weak-looking woman in a grey long skirt was called 'Doreen'.
