The giant mother serpent, Serina, hovered over the ground like a ghost. She learned the technique to ignore or 'bend' the rules of gravity so she would appear to be flying. She could create wings from her flesh but only when she wanted to catch fast moving prey. She has stockpiled on food for her eggs however, so even then when she isn't there to see her children hatch they would help themselves. When she saw a guard acting as though drunk, there was a smell about him that was unsettling. Despite regular human flesh, there was another kind of flesh sent that smelt older... ancient almost. Serina decided to rip a patch of grass right out of the ground and go straight back to her eggs.
