,,How much the coming of the heavenly messenger was desired for scores of centuries! Ever since the expulsion from Paradise, when God also made the first promise of salvation (Genesis 3:15). Adam and his descendants always waited with impatience for the coming of the promised Savior. And, behold, God decided the fullness of time (Galatians 4:4). And the first human being deemed worthy to learn of this divine decree is the Holy Virgin Mary. To her is first addressed the "gospel" (good news) of the Savior's coming into the world."

I can't stop with these lil dudes. I decided to make them canon!

These little Savanna Scrapwings have more flair than their northwesterly plains cousins, but are just as hardy. They live in the grasslands that skirt the Sentomia Desert, and travel in small ever-moving herds. They feature a somewhat strange bulbous beak and an equally strange combo of stripes along their crest and dappled spots on their hindquarters.

They rarely stand taller than 13 hands and are seen as a cute curiosity by those unfamiliar with the animals in the desert regions.
