Jaz awoke the next morning to the sound of the whole flock of sparrows in her room. "Don't you live with Daine and Kel?" She asked them, but knowing that they couldn't reply in a language that she could understand.
Jaz got up out of bed and tried to shoo the birds out of her room but all that they did was fly out of her reach. Jaz considered using her magic to get the birds out of her room but then remembered that Daine would kill her if she hurt the birds.
Jaz decided that the only person that could get the birds out of her room was Daine so Jaz got her wrap and wrapped it around her. (She couldn't get changed in front of the birds –how did she know that one of them wasn't a shape shifter?)
Jaz then went to find Daine. As Jaz walked through the palace to get to Daine and Numair's room she received many strange looks. Jon and Alanna where having a heated debate when Jaz passed them. They both looked at her and Alanna asked "Jaz is something wrong? You're walking around the palace in your sleeping clothes and a wrap. Is there anything that we can do to help you?"
Jaz replied, laughing "There's a flock of birds in my room— unless you are a wild mage and can talk to animals… I don't think that you can help me."
Jaz continued to Daine's room and knocked on the door.
The door opened and Jaz looked for who opened the door. She then looked down and saw a dragon that was just as tall as her waist. "Well hello" she asked the dragon "Who are you?"
"This is Skysong." A male voice said "But everyone calls her Kitten."
"Hello Numair, is Daine here?" Jaz asked the mage.
"Yes she is— I'll get her for you. Would you like to come in?" Numair asked.
Jaz walked into the room and sat on the lounge and Numair went to get Daine. When Daine walked in she found Kit and Jaz sitting next to each other with Jaz examining Kit and marveling at how light the young dragon was.
"How old is she?" Jaz asked Daine in hand still on Kit's back and looking at the young dragon in awe.
"About 11 years old." Daine replied "Are you here for any reason or have you always visited people in your bed clothes and a wrap?" Daine asked trying and failing to keep the laughter from her voice.
"I have a problem" Jaz started laughing as well "You see this morning when I woke up there was a flock of birds in my room. I can't get them out without using magic and I thought that if I used magic you would get angry at me so, I was wondering if you would consider coming and getting the birds out of my room so that I can get dressed please?"
Daine burst in to laughter and managed to splutter "Ok I'll come with you" between laughs.
"What's so funny?" Numair asked walking into the room "Are you laughing at me?" he asked Daine. "Is she laughing at me?" he asked Jaz.
"No I'm not laughing at you my dear," Daine said "It's just that our dear friend is being terrorized by little birdies and she can't get changed so she came to ask me to get rid of them." Daine explained to her lover.
Numair then also burst into laughter.
Numair and Daine went to Jaz's rooms with her and where shocked at the amount of birds that where present.
"I told you that a whole flock was roosting in my room!" Jaz told the shocked couple.
Daine immediately went to work to see why the birds where in Jaz's room and Jaz went to the kitchen and made breakfast for her guests.
An hour later Daine finally emerged from Jaz's bedroom and went to sit at the table with Jaz and Numair.
"Well, why where they in my bedroom?" Jaz asked Daine
"It's sort of complicated but put simply, they where there to give you a message." Daine told Jaz.
"What is the message?" Jaz asked Daine.
"Well" Daine started "It appears that they had a message from your niece. She says that they will be at the palace gate at the time of the lunch bell."
"Oh" Jaz gasped "I forgot that they where coming. Did the birds say how many of my brother's children where coming?" Jaz asked Daine.
"They said just the three of them will be coming." Daine said.
Numair and Daine then took their leave and went back to their rooms and Jaz went to organize the spare room in to rooms for her nieces and her nephew.
