Whatever conversation they might have had about Halo disappeared with the arrival of the crow. As surprised as Alys was, she wasn't particularly bothered by it; she'd always liked crows, and she didn't have much of an attachment to that particular bracelet. She would have been more than happy to allow the creature to escape with the bauble, but it seemed like her new companion had a different idea.
The Ancient moved faster than Alys would have dreamed possible, dropping the sack she carried, palming a shoe, and hurling it at the bird's head in one fluid motion, leaving Alys to stand under the eaves, slack-jawed. The crow crashed to the ground and Maea freed the bracelet before picking up the bird. Then she just stood there, holding the creature in the rain.
Alys swallowed hard, then stepped out into the rain. "Is it hurt?" she asked as she stepped closer to Maea. "I can heal it if it is." Maybe that would shake the woman out of her seeming trance.
