Description
I thought long and hard on this one.
Apparently, winged yōkai are fairly common, but there aren't many that have dragon-like or bat-like wings.
So, I took some artistic liberties with a scarcely described Okuri-inu.
This friend follows people who are walking along mountain paths at night. They eat people who fall over, but if travellers take a short rest, no harm will come to them.
In some regions, it is customary to leave a little gift for Okuri-inu once a person makes it safely across the trail (or to simply say something along the lines of "thank you for escorting me").
Information on Okuri-inu is fairly scarce, but they seem like capricious creatures, rather than evil ones
