He felt like the bird acknowledged him, that the head tilt was no random event. A thrill shot through the boy. He had spoken to the forest, and the forest had answered. This owl was a wise woodland creature, and it had cared enough to take a moment to acknowledge them. In that moment, briefly, Mortis felt powerful.

The boy remained still as the owl stretched his wings, though his own couldn’t help but twitch in envy. If only he too, could open his wings and fly. When the bird landed, Mort scrambled to climb down the tree. Going down was always more awkward then up, his body wasn’t made to contort like a cats, even if he had the claws, and wings to balance him. When he was close to the trunk, he spread his wings, and jumped. His own descent a sad mimicry to the owls, and he landed heavily.

He was on his paws again an instant later, a grin on his maw, as he trotted closer to girl and bird. Not close enough to intrude.

With mischief in his eyes, Mort wagged his tail and looked at his Auntie. “I think he likes you” he told the older woman, before hunkering down closer to the bird's height. Nobody had ever asked him to name something before… it required a great deal of thought now. He scrunched up his nose, and considered it for a time. This bird was a creature of the stars. He had learned a little of stars now, from Asla, and from wanderers. “Rigel…?” He suggested hesitantly.
