The Pterectrifly held the Poryphone between its little hands, allowing the camera view to hover over the heads of everyone in the museum. Many of the visitors looked up with frightened expressions at the notorious pest, and some even fled from the room. But those with a passion for paleontology were eager to point out its prehistoric roots mixed with its modern adaptations.

"Pteri, down here, please."

The camera tilted downward, showing Wendy in a high-angle view as she looked up at the viewers. "Today on the Norcloh Discovery Vlog, Reed and I are taking a tour of the Norcloh History Museum in Pinnegew City. Rori is with us as our tour guide, since she's been here a bunch of times."

"A hundred times, actually," Rori said as she and Reed stepped into the camera's view. "I've been coming here with my gramma since I was a kid. I'm saving you guys the price of a tour guide." She tried to wink and smile at the camera but ended up twisting her face like she was in pain.

Wendy suppressed a chuckle. "Right. So we were only given permission by the curator to record the stuff in this one room. Why don't you tell us about, um..." She looked around at the various display cases and approached one containing a flat sheet. "How about that one?"

Rori followed her. "Oh, that's a winter count. My ancestors used to make them from Bouffalant hide. Naturally, that was the only way they could record events of great importance back then."

"Interesting," Wendy commented as she examined the winter count and beckoned Pteri to hover closer.

The camera zoomed in on the sheet that depicted a crudely shaped mountain with a bear-like silhouette standing on the summit and a red crescent moon hanging above the silhouette.

"And what's going on here?" asked Reed.

"Well, if you look at this plaque..."

The camera zoomed out, hovered down, and then zoomed in on the silver plaque under the display case.

Rori continued, "Says here that it depicts an Ursumbra that climbed to the top of Mount Norcloh and cast a large shadow over the entire region. This one apparently dates back to the year when a freak snowstorm caused an especially harsh winter. That was how the legend of the Winter Tyrant came to be."
