@DaneruuIn 5e does Grappling a flying creature make it fall (due to speed being 0)? What about creatures flying via magic? creature is safe at speed 0 only if it can hover

A creature that can hover need speed to do so if his speed becomes 0 it will fall.
Once gravity breaks the grapple (because the victim leaves the grappler’s reach), its speed is no longer zero, and it can fly.
