When the wolf appeared, the bird did not hide its interest. Not having the nose of a wolf, it could only guess at the creature's origins, but it seemed almost to recognize the one that stood below it. At least, it acknowledged it with the slightest incline of its dark head. Not a gesture of recognition, but the unsettling narrow of a predator's senses.
It was an unnatural gesture, for a raven. A raven should not hunt.
This one did.
"Do you know what lies underneath?" it asked, the words crackling and popping unnaturally in the raven's throat. Only crudely could it immitate the words of wolves, but it was enough to be understood. Here, it leaned its head down a fraction more, listening carefully for the wolf's response, should any come.
