His ponderings ceased with Raven's welcome arrival, and Elwood nudged Tywyll's cheek reassuringly as the medic approached. "It's okay," he said quietly, then straightened to talk to Raven. "Thanks for coming. Tywyll got into a tangle with an eagle -- I think he's alright, but I wanted an expert to check him out," he said, gesturing towards the puncture wounds left behind by the bird's talons.
