As soon as Liem steps forward, Dokja pulls him all the way in, leaning down to hook an arm under Liem's legs while the other supports his back.

[ That's all the warning Liem gets before Dokja stretches out his wings, raising them high in the air, and then swinging back down just as he kicks off from the ground.

It's not just his wings aiding in his flight and speed, but even the wind seems to have been summoned from seemingly out of nowhere, carrying them higher and higher up. As promised, Dokja keeps a firm grip on Liem while he scans the branches they pass by. ]
