THE PROMPT:
By all the laws of science, The Pigasus should not be able to fly. It is a heavy and cumbersome creature, much like a common hog in almost every way, in size, shape, diet, disposition; except for the fact that it reportedly has a pair of wings upon its back. These wings are not large, perhaps the size of those found on a duck, and do not appear to be able to lift such a creature. And yet, as impossible as it seems for these peculiar wings to carry a beast of such proportions, there are many recorded instances by reputable sources of the creatures being born aloft, and being seen flying over forests and fields. It is thought by the more eccentrically-minded, that there is some magical agent that allows them flight, as in many of these accounts it is said that there are often small beings riding upon them, most commonly, gnomes. Others dismiss these magical claim out of hand, and suggest that it is the natural by-product of something in their diet that allows them flight, or perhaps that the wings themselves are made with some hitherto unknown form of anatomical construction.
Whatever the case, it seems impossible that they should fly.
