Great Bear Wilderness Blackfeather Woods (DISCOVERY THREAD)

@Erebus @Keith Morrígan is raiding a crow settlement by the border of crow and raven territory.

The raven queen perched on the black-barked tree, her single eye gleaming maliciously as she peering into crow territory. All about her, scores upon scores of her best warriors kept silent as they glared at their next conquest. A copse of trees, holding several families of crows, was dangerously close to her land. Why they were foolish enough to be so close to enemy lines escaped her, but she took advantage of their idiocy as soon as her scouts found out about them.

Raising her wings, her troops flew as swiftly and silently as they could towards the trees. Within a few moments, the silence of the dark woods exploded into a flurry of noise. Crows attempted to flee from their larger cousins, only to be torn down by a raven's sharp talons. Fledglings, hatchlings, and eggs were taken by the looters back to the ravens' trees to be raised as slaves. Some did not have the luxury, and were eaten by the more hungry of the warriors.

With the battle over, Morrígan threw her head back and cawed racously. Her raven warriors followed with glee, dancing in the sky. One of her generals, Bertrand flew up to her perch. "The copse is ours, Milady. But three crows have escaped. Our scouts say they are heading to Erebus." Morrígan turned to him, smirking. "How many crows does it take to deliver a message, Bertrand?" Her general smiled. "One." He flew off, a group of ravens following him.
