The plateau where the monoliths stood didn’t last for long, and then we were back to fighting our way up a steep slope.

It wasn’t like we were scaling El Capitan or anything, but the trails were pretty narrow, and there were plenty of places where one bad stumble could send you hurtling a couple hundred feet down over jagged rocks.

It was easy for me, though. My Wall Crawler ability allowed me to safely climb without fear of slipping.

I carried Alia on my back, held there with a harness of spider silk provided by Spirella. Alia was probably the least suited to ascending the mountain, so it made sense for me to carry her.

Although… damn. She might have had the upper half of a tiny chick, but she had a hell of a long tail – and a lot of extra weight as a result.

She tried her best to brace her snake half behind us on the ground to take the extra weight off me, but it was a fuckin’ workout, powers or no powers.

Spirella was like a mountain goat. Her eight stiletto-sharp feet were great for finding every nook and cranny in the rocks, and she could also use her spider silk as safety ropes. In fact, that’s how Dyra got up the mountain – by climbing up the trail on foot, but using Spirella’s webs as a rope to help pull herself up.

It was difficult for Hara. She kept sliding down as pebbles shifted under her feet, and she had to keep flapping her wings to stay upright.

After getting smacked in the face with giant swan wings a couple of times, I finally told her just to fly up to the next bare outcropping of rock and wait for us – for which she was very grateful.

If it was hard for a harpy, it was perilous for the female centaurs. With their larger bodies and increased weight, they had a hard time climbing at a slow pace. Think of a horse in any movie where they go up a mountain: they usually race pretty swiftly up a steep slope in order to keep up their momentum – but that was impossible with over 30 centaur chicks at one time. Everybody kept bumping into each other, and as they slid and tumbled, they continually threatened to turn our group into a chain of falling dominoes.

I finally told the Chieftess, “Look, I appreciate your willingness to go all the way to the top with me, but I need you guys for the Grim Keep. I don’t want anybody breaking their necks on a side mission. I can handle whatever’s up there, so you guys stay safe down here.”

“We will still go with you, if you need us,” the Chieftess said, not wanting to abandon me, but also not wanting her entire tribe to go falling ass over teakettle down the mountainside.

“No, it’s cool – I’ve got my harem backing me up. We’ve got this.”

The Chieftess nodded. “Perhaps that is best.”

Seera, however, wouldn’t hear of it.
