Danger noodle

Knowing that he had a raven just like his dad did excited the boy every day. She wasn’t a fan of being in the den, but every morning no matter how early he woke up, Prose was waiting right outside the entrance for him and Sen to come out and play. Today was no different, the small white raven was perched on his shoulder, right where she belonged. They were allowed further and further each day, and though he loved his mother dearly he much preferred being watched by his father. Rhyme was much more lenient, giving him room to get into a bit more trouble.

Still, he could count on someone having their eye on him no matter how far he went, especially if he got close to the borders. He wasn’t right now. Haiku was on Ruin’s trail. He wondered if her raven behaved similarly to Prose. The thought was dashed when he caught sight of his small sibling and the odd creature she was facing off with. His eyes opened wide in wonder as he surged forward. The gift of foresight would come with age, for now he was fearless.

”Prose, peck its tail!” As the words left his mouth the fledgling raven was swooping down to do so. They practically lived in a snake den and he didn’t want to count how many times he’d been told to be careful of the snakes. This one was going down.

Haiku made his way to Ruin’s side as the snake was distracted by the little white raven. She was too quick for the beast and hopped out of its reach before she could get a nice bite.
