Night Heron
Descrição
The night heron is a nocturnal bird endemic to the forests and glades of Phoenix, Crane, and Unicorn provinces. Identified by its black-and-white plumage and its eerie keen, the night heron is known for a phenomenon called “blue heron flame” (aosaginohi). Under the full moon, the night heron glows pale blue and casts a phosphorescent sheen over anything beneath its beating wings. While the night heron is peaceful enough to be approached, it flees when it is confronted or senses danger, only resorting to blinding phosphorescent flashes and raking talon attacks when it has no other choice.
