Dale took the proffered limb, wrapping his fingers around Sharpbeak's talons. The two stared at each other for a moment longer, before they began their handshake. Sharpbeak finally broke Dale's grasp, lowering his talon back to the floor. “He's stronger than he looks,” he mumbled. “It was a pleasure to meet you both,” Sharpbeak said loudly enough for everypony in the room to hear. “I look forward to working with you in the future.” With that said, he turned and walked out of the embassy, taking flight as soon as he had cleared the door.
