Just as the battle begins, a bolt of lightning suddenly strikes out of nowhere followed by a shrill screech. A familiar blue-feathered beast appears, one that looks more serpent than a bird. It hisses viscously at one of the trolls before suddenly dashing towards it. It would seem that Tonitrus, as Regis has named it, has taken the initiative here. The viscous fiend lives up to its fierce namesake. It rips at the offending troll with beak, pecking away until the flesh becomes bone. A gruesome sight to behold.

"Tonitrus." A familiar voice calls out as the thunderbird mauls its prey. "You're a bit too hasty today," Regis says with a sigh once he spots the grotesque beasts upon the bridge. He's clad in black and golds today, looking very much like the Lucian Kings of yore despite his lack of a crown. While he looks very similar to before, it should be noted that the old king is without his cane and leg brace now. He stands tall now looking very much like the Reaper himself except for his serene gaze.

"It would seem that the rumors were indeed true." Regis comments in regards to the trolls. "But I hadn't expected to see a dragon here." He says as he turns his gaze towards the macabre of flesh and scales.
