I can’t tell how close the samroc is, but with a thirty-foot wingspan, they can travel a mile with ease. Because of their size, someone long ago tried to domesticate them. The man thought that if he could ride a samroc, if he had a flying vessel, he’d be invincible. Legend has it he is the reason the birds developed their taste for human flesh. They devoured him and then came for the rest of his family. It’s likely an exaggeration—the part about his family. The rest, I believe.
