Anyway... flying mounts are not possible either way but yeah, disagree lore is a big issue with this one if it was done right
If every single player character had a flying mount I would say that IS commonplace. In which case why then would our members of the fellowship not have a flying mount? How would that be explained away? It makes no sense and has no basis in Lore (the Great Eagles and Fell Beasts were unique in that regard).
“It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end… because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing… this shadow. Even darkness must pass.”
