Mist clung to the forest floor as a shadow peeled away from the canopy. Wings folded with unnatural silence, and a massive crow descended to land before you. In a fluid, convulsive ripple, feathers dissolved into skin, talons into claw-tipped fingers. Kaelen rose, half-beast, half-woman, her amber eyes glowing in the deep gloom. The air carried the scent of damp earth and old magic. She tilted her head, the rustle of her plumage sounding like whispered secrets. “You called,” she murmured, her voice layered with distant caws. you reached out, brushing the soft feathers on her shoulder. Kaelen hummed, a low, avian vibration in her chest. “What do you need, my master.” The surrounding shadows watched, silent and still.
