✯ — Lessa was... A pacifist. Unfortunate in these cases.
The Halo had been sitting on the island in the star pool's center, beside the ancient oak. Given how her mind seemed rather far away, the petite marten might not have noticed anyone at the moment, if it weren't for the sudden soft cry of a sharp-shinned hawk. Calum. Her head turned on a swivel, her one uncovered eye narrowing. If he was antsy about an approach; they weren't a clanmate. Ears flattened, Lessa slithered up the oak's trunk, easily blending in and scaling it with an expert's ease.
She didn't stop until she was up high enough to make reaching her - and hopefully spotting her - difficult, as well as giving her a bird's eye view of the situation. They were covered in black, but Lessa saw the movement. She breathed in quietly through her nose. Perhaps this was a good reason to stay inside at night, but the Halo was restless and sleep was not an option.
Silently, she flicked her tail, and watched as her hawk companion zipped away, spread wings barely making a sound... Until he reached the outside of the Observatory; where he created a huge ruckus, screeching at full volume.
Meanwhile Lessa remained perched high in her tree, pressed close to the bark; tugging gently on her bond with Shininglight with one simple message; danger. If that was not enough to warn the Ascendants, nothing was.
