winter hawk returns at a hard lope, breath tearing from his chest as he crosses into the heart of the rise.
snow and distance cling to him. miles run without pause. nothing found.
he slows only when he reaches white feather. his head lowers and presses to her nape, feathers at his own stirring as he breathes her in. pine. ash. home.
a low sound leaves him, quiet and apologetic. he did not find the boy. no trail. no blood. no sign.
he stays there, sharing warmth and truth both.
he will search again if she wills it.
