“Novo loves birds. From all flocks and feathers, from the tiniest hummingbird to the biggest Moa, and even magical birds like phoenixes and rocs. In fact hippogriffs can understand and communicate with birds of all kinds, which is why they are very fond of them. Novo especially likes to visit Mount Aris’ population of parakeets, which left the island after the Storm King’s invasion, but have since returned following his defeat. In fact one of the things Novo misses when she went underwater was seeing all the birds. Now that the hippogriffs have resurfaced, she can enjoy having conversations with all the birds she comes across!”
