recall
You dismount from a silver-winged pegasus.
You plummet to your death!
Your equipment is scattered beyond retrieval.
You have been KILLED!!

I got a sprite killed through falling damage once by brandishing weak flight on him before a trip, and it expired in the plane of air.

Absolutely no reason that sprite shouldn't have landed and flown again under their own power.

It does mark a point of silliness in the code. Flying races should never be able to fall to their deaths. There is no logical reason that at some point after starting to fall they wouldn't use their wings.

It's not due to sillyness. It's just that every edge case has to be accounted for manually and there are a LOT of edge cases.

Anyhow, I have added a check to prevent attempting to recall if you would dismount and fall in mid-air. Next update.
