Commentary
I'm shocked that Ellen doesn't know what that thing was.
She clearly presented it as a very vague thing that no one was actually able to see, thereby suggesting she had a very clear idea in mind of what it was.
In fact, it was so clearly suggested that Ellen knew what it was that this claim that she doesn't know what it was must be a desperate attempt at retroactive continuity.
Perhaps the original idea the author had no longer sits well with them, and they're attempting to backpedal on it with all the grace of a hippo on a unicycle.
Though, on reflection, that is a poor example. A hippo on a unicycle would have to be very graceful, for the hippo would have to be able to get on the unicycle in the first place. That alone would be an impressive feat, and any amount of control would be absolutely Olympian in so far as hippo athleticism is to be concerned.
Hippo athleticism aside, I intend to express my displeasure to the author at length in writing.
Given that I myself am the author, this will take the form of writing a journal, and should be a delightful and fulfilling experience.

I see you have some preconceived notions of what a hippo on a unicycle would look like. I've seen a hippo on a unicycle, and it really didn't need that much grace. To be fair, it maybe would have been better to term it a hippo on an ex-unicycle, as it was basically totaled by the first foot that stepped on it. Also, once they settled down on it, there wasn't enough visible to even recognize it as a unicycle.

A Lawful Good Kirin comes to mind: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qilin It would totally explain the Paladin's inclusion in the group.

...so it's the Gun Devil?

It's an anti-Lovecraftian anti-horror. It's so cute that the unaided human mind can't even perceive it. The party will pursue it, incomprehending, finding in the end that it means to save the world, not destroy it, and needs their help.

I've seen Fantasia... hippos can be very graceful :)

she can go on not knowing as long as she can blame stuff on it but that it moves on too quickly for the party to find out what it is
