BUTIn the Prydain Chronicles, the protagonist, Taran, comes across a wounded wyvern.  While these creatures aren't innately evil, they've all been trained/tainted by the evil King Arwyn and he can see through their eyes and stuff.  So they're pretty bad and you usually kill them on sight.Everyone tells Taran to kill the wounded creature.  Instead, Taran nurses it back to health. When it's finally healthy enough, it takes a swipe at one of the party members and flies away.  Everyone in the party is, like, "I told you so.  Now it's going to go tell its master about us"Fast Forward:  I'm not sure if this event happens in the same novel or if it happens in a separate one, but as the heroes are fighting an almost impossible fight(I think it's against a flock of evil wyverns or something), the wyvern returns and helps them right when it's needed most and helps to turn the tide of the battle.It was pretty cool.I think it would be neat if that griffin flies away as soon as they free it and then shows up to help them at a later time.</blockquote>
