Leviathan

Leviathans are scaly reptiles that live in the sea and resemble scaly snakes with fins and tails. The medium of the species are five or six times the size of an average man, the larger ones twice that. They are cousins of the whales except for the fact that leviathans have smaller skulls, more serpent like appearance and wider tail flukes. Leviathans are generally very intelligent and friendly to man once trained, unlike Dragons in The Daekness Series.

It is for their intelligence, many Derlavai|Derlavaian]] navies make use of the creatures to sink enemy ships, for example the Royal Sibian Navy. Sailors ride on a leviathan and than, swimming under enemy ships, stick an egg under the target's keel. Also unlike dragons, riders often become affectionate towards their animals.

Cornelu named his leviathan Eforiel, after the first woman he had a relationship with, a fact only he knew.
