The problem had started in a much simpler way than Victor imagined.
Aerys was far too temperamental to remain still for very long.
Victor had left her in the forests near Heavenly Demon Mountain because a creature of that size would naturally attract too much attention within the main areas of the Cult. The original plan was simple: she would stay there while he trained, hunt whenever she got hungry, and wait until he finished whatever he needed to do.
For Aerys, that was perfectly acceptable.
For a few hours.
Maybe a day.
After that, the enormous Wyvern began getting irritated.
She wasn't a mount trained to remain tied up in a stable waiting for her owner to return. She was a wild creature Victor had defeated, won over, and subsequently accepted as his companion. She had her own habits, her own instincts, and, above all, an enormous appetite.
So she did what any Wyvern would do.
She began hunting.
First, small animals.
Then deer.
