Description
This land is more vast than I remember. However, a good scholar always prepares for contingencies. Two of the most airborne dragons have agreed to aid our cause. They will provide a winged mount so you may cover more ground. I will send you to Lord Andestrasz. He shall instruct you further.

After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- How to Glide with Your Dragon
Let us start with the basics. If you fly straight you will wear yourself out right now. Use gravity as an aid and aim slightly down to fly a long distance. The rings will give you the general angle that you should use for basic gliding.
