[ The sun catches behind a large creature, cutting the distinct silhouette of outstretched, feathered wings gliding through the air. But Mako's eyes don't need to strain for long. A gray cloud, seemingly billowing behind the bird, obscures some of the sun's rays.]
[Soon, the bird circles above the house, bringing a low rumble of thunder along with it. It's coupled with the woosh! woosh! woosh! of powerful flapping as it lands.]
[On top of the roof.]
[Even at this distance, it's clear that the bird is almost a cross between an eagle and a crow: Long, black beak. Sharp talons that look like they could pierce through a man. Raincloud-colored feathers cover its body, intermingled with a few fluffy patches of a former fledgling's leftover down. A white head, streaked with gold, bears a gem in the forehead.]
[Vyng — pressed against the bird's back until now — straightens up, giving Mako a jaunty wave from his perch.]
