Blacktail Deer Plateau Sweater weather

Peregrine took off and the two she-wolves began to walk along the outer perimeter of the plateau. Hawkeye looked at Pied keenly and the dappled female could see concern written on her sibling's dark face.

"It's nothing bad," Pied started. "I ran into Crete a little while ago and passed a message onto him, which he passed onto the rest of his siblings. It was about how Tyrannus was dead at the hands of Perseus and Echo, who took over Flightless Falcons and restored it to its former glory. You've probably heard about this."

After looking at Hawkeye's face for an answer, then peeking over her shoulder to make sure Peregrine wasn't secretly lurking there, she said sotto voce. "March Owl and Tyrannus visited me. As in, they were dead. I couldn't tell Crete et al that. I don't want them knowing..." She was possessive of her secret. "Anyway, I just wanted to tell someone the truth. Don't tell Perry, though, not that he'd believe you."

They came around a bend and Pied glanced over the flatlands before stopping and motioning for Hawkeye to turn around and head back in the other direction. "So I can't believe you're all settled down with Perry. Will you tell me how it all happened—how the two of you fell in love?" She chuckled, her tail waving as she pricked her gray ears for the story.
