Wow. Good call! I always tend to remember Anzu as a Dragon (or more usually a chimaera), what with the winged-lion motif and all. But it is called bird in many cases.

OK, since IMG the ducks don't speak like donald, I'd drop that part. But yes, having a myth like that makes me think the Ducks would be hated by the DH and probably not the most beloved of creatures for Rinliddi. But I also figure some Rinliddi would want to restore flight to them, earning them forgiveness in the sight of the gods.
