3.6 – By Man & Monster Beset
The chatter of kalalintu from above rattled Einarr’s nerves. They were starting to feint at diving, trying to keep their prey from escaping, nudging them ever closer to the ledge. Not good. “Henir!” The blond man snapped his head around and Einarr tossed his bow back to him. The archer wasted no time nocking another…

3.5 – Between Wind & Water
“What’s this?” Erik paused to look back at Einarr. “Stop and listen a minute.
