"It's got my kit! It's got Rose That Grows On Ledge!" Lone Wolf On High Mountain screeched.
My sister is in trouble. That was all I could think. Swiftly I dashed out of the cave, streaking away towards the eagle. I heard my mother wail
"Sparrow That Flies Over Peaks!" but nothing could stop me. My sister was in danger. I saw on the edge of my vision three Cave Guards flanking me but I was faster. I was a Prey Hunter. The eagle was my prey. I could make out the tiny ginger figure of my sister in the eagle's talons.
It's going over the cliff!
I needed to act now or Rose would become eagle food. I leaped. It was slow motion, the eagle dropping Rose. I clung on as we swept over the edge. I saw the mountains. They were tall, majestic and and the peaks were snowy. It hit me:
I am soaring! Like a sparrow!
Suddenly, the eagle twisted. I fell. I heard screeches and yowls from the cliff. They seemed distant, like I was underwater. Slowly I turned and faced the sky. The eagle was falling too.
My job here is done. Welcome me, Tribe of the Endless Hunting
Then I closed my eyes, and hit the ground.
