The myth
In Persian tales, the Homa is the bird that never lands. It flies above the world all its life, and whoever its shadow falls upon is destined to become king.
In the Arena
In the Arena, the Homa still never lands. It carries the warrior across the colours, four tiles in a single flight, and drops him above his landing tile. The tribes claim that a warrior touched by its shadow fights better that day.
In play
The warrior moves up to 4 tiles through a side, in a straight line.
