After a while she found a tasty looking deer. She had just started to chow down on its hind leg when she caught a whiff of an intruding scent...
Rolling her eyes she turned menancingly towards the entrance to the valley where the scent was comming from. She grudgngly lifted into the air, annoyed she had to leave her breakfast now that she had finally gotten ahold of one.
She finally spotted the intruder: he was another sphinx, flying straight towards her. Good Mother, what were they all thinking? If this was Galoriane's army everyone down to the lowest private should have known to pay proper respect and ask permission before passing through a sphinx's territory! This arrogant male whoever he was was giving absolutly no indication of respect.... no, he was in attacking mode, dammit....
Really mad now, she pulled herself up in the air, she flared her wings and let out a roar that echoed across the valley. Flames started running through her hair as she realized he was not backing down.
Once he got into hearing range he called out "Cousin, you have done injury to an Imperial Messenger who has done you no insult or injury as an instigator. As such I will ask you..."
"THE POMPOUS PATHETIC EXCUSE FOR A QUADROPED? I WILL TAKE NO SUCH INSULT FROM HIM!!" With that she dove at him, her claws and teeth bared.
Sphinxes do not generally include magic in territroial battles. It is generally considered a lesser form of fighting, and though they may use it if an opponent uses it on them, they will usually not do so among themselves. Therefore Morgule kept her eyes open to see if the stranger was using any spells, but did not engage in using her own fire magic.
They met in midair, the other sphinx's eyes widened, then narrowed with anger and annoyance. He brought his claws up to meet hers and let out a roar to match her own. They began to kick and claw at each other, throwing blows that would take the head off of a human or an elf...
