This boy was all too eager to tell her what he knew, and Poem gazed curiously at him as he began. His father also had a raven, which sounded like her dad! However while Poem was much more interested in the bird the boy went on to describe his father’s familiar. She reacted with awe as the boy described the snake, the Destruction girl knew how dangerous snakes could be, what living so close to the serpent plains. It was amazing the boy’s dad had such a close friend in the viper.

She and Edgar were beginning to know each other better, they were almost always together. The boy went on to explain further and Poem couldn’t help but see the similarities between herself and Edgar and the boy’s father and his cobra.

”I wonder if he’s really my familiar and I didn’t know it?” She asked curiously as she looked over at the raven who had relocated to a tree branch above them when she sat down. ”We are best friends, and almost littermates. Tato said they hatched the same time my siblings and I were born. And we’ve been learning to keep each other safe.” She beamed up at her friend before turning her blue and lavender gaze back to the boy.

”What’s your name? Do you know what kind of familiar you want to have?” She’d always wanted to have a raven partner like her mom and dad. Though Edgar’s companionship had been somewhat of a surprise she always knew she needed him in her life.
