"No." Was the reply of the other monarch. She suggested the idea to the Skywing Queen. Perhaps she could gather members from her tribe to teach them how to farm. If the Skywings were in such dire need of food, then it would be cruel to let them starve, especially after the events that had occurred at the Seawing Palace. There was truth in the statement that Cloudwings could grow most of their food, and as they were smaller, they did not require as much sustenance as other dragons might. The Cloudwing Queen was puzzled, but she conceded that the shared ground from now on would be reserved for the Skywings, and the Skywings only. The shared ground would be Skywing territory from now on, for it was evident that her tribe needed it more than the Cloudwings. She needed the mountains for her dragons, and her dragons alone. Nevertheless, the CloudWing Queen agreed to allow Skywings to hunt on her tribe's mountains for in spite of her bewilderment, her benevolence caused her to trust the word of the Skywing Queen. Did they not already share a large portion of the mountain range with each other, and take measures to ensure that the prey would remain plentiful in those areas? Did the two tribes not trade for what one needed whenever a food shortage was being experienced? The increasing numbers of her tribe had all but hunted their mountains bare, and unlike the Cloudwings, they could not grow the majority of their food to sustain their growing population. The Skywing Queen announced that she wished for more land. The Cloudwings became a target of their concern with their high rates of animus hatchings. The Skywings, after having their Princess killed at the Royal Seawing Massacre, grew defensive and suspicious of outsiders.

Though sometimes depicted during the Classical Era and during the rule of the Merovingians, it was first named and defined by Ludovico Ariosto in his Orlando Furioso, at the beginning of the 16th century. The first recorded mention of the hippogriff was made by the Latin poet Virgil in his Eclogues.

A veces representado en escudos de armas heráldicos, el Hippogriff se convirtió en un sujeto de arte visual en el siglo 19, cuando fue dibujado a menudo por Gustave Doré. Es montado por magos y el errante caballero Roger, quien, de la espalda de la criatura, libera a la hermosa Angélica. Dentro del poema, el hipogrifo es un corcel nacido de una yegua y un grifo - es extremadamente rápido y se presenta como poder volar alrededor del mundo y de la luna.
