"Shalia is going to use her full force to evict us from the forest," said Arryn as she walked away from him. "She is going to use every nymph, every druid to come after us!" She walked to the torso of the demon and pointed at him. "You should brink his blood, father. That would give some magic back to you." Saying that, Arryn crouched right in the center of the cave, her robe spreading all around her. When she shot up, she had shifted into her feral form of a raven. With a loud caw, she flew out of the cave and vanished into the night.
The eagle flapped its wings and came to the fallen body of Haden. It sat on its shoulders and like a bird of prey started eating his flesh and gulping blood.
