"Kak-Kak-Kak!"

It was an alarming sound for anyone not familiar.  It came from above the group, high in the sky, and anyone who turned their eyes upward would see the obvious source of the bird call.  It also might be an alarming sight, for shortly after it sqwauked, it circled into a sudden dive-bomb towards the group at breath-taking speed.  It twisted itself gracefully and decelerated, then flew around the group, making it's presence known among them all, before going and landing on a tree branch.  It spread it's wings proudly and sqwuaked once more.

It was a falcon, one slightly larger than normal - a beautiful golden brown colour, marked with dark brown spots.  It looked at Fenna, who would recognise it as the falcon who she'd met already.  The apex predator flew over to her and landed on her arm.  For whatever reason, it's huge razor-sharp talons would not harm the Ranger in the slightest.

Connected in spirit they were. Now, connected as [i]Master[/i] and [i]Familiar.[/i]

As the sun began to dip in the west, the group came to the spot that Adam had chosen for them.  A small clump of tightly knit trees and rocks, had formed a good-sized grassless area on top of a hill, where it would be easy to set up a camp site that had cover from the elements.  Hommas' town river had followed them north, winding up inland, and a stream had broken off to go it's own way, bending around the area below the site.  It went in and out of sight, through the treeline below, providing a good, clean source of water.

The orange sky threatened dark soon, but Adam had gotten them to a spot with ample time to set up camp, to hunt and cook if desired, and anything else they might wish to take care of before settling in for a long night.
