[align=center][div style="text-align: justify; width: 60%; font-family: georgial; font-size: 11pt;"]When Corryn had first gone branching, he'd never accounted for the journey back up to the safety of his hollow. Flight feathers only just fledged in, the Barn Owl had intended to get more practice before trying genuine flight out of fear that he'd crash, but as it turned out gaining altitude was difficult. Trying to do such a thing had resulted in him losing the favour of the wind and tumbling down to the floor, where the predators roamed. Sheer desperation had given him the strength to fight against his lack of knowledge and find safety in a nearby tree, isolated from the others, but not without sacrifice. The sounds of furious barks were all that the young owl could hear. He found himself roosted where the forested mountains met the plains of sand, one leg lifted up above the safety of the branch out of pain. The vicious mutt circled the base of the tree, black and hollow eyes casting its glare directly up at Corryn. Foam frothed at its mouth, from excitement or disease the Tyto didn't wish to know, but its tail seemed to lash with excitement despite whatever ailed the beast.
Cory had to hope that it got bored and left him alone. His own eyes, though similar of colour, displayed absolutely no aggression in comparison to the lone hound - they were wide with a fear that could be felt even in his gizzard. He was safe for now on the leafless tree, but with his leg starting to swell up and the possibility that he might have to try and fly when he wasn't ready, it was hard to stay as cool and collected as he would've liked. Pale brown wings spread, perhaps in a way to make himself seem bigger when he was up a dozen or so feet in the air, his other foot's digits flexing and unflexing. Please just go away dog... there was nothing else that could be thought, with most of the avian's body paralyzed as he repeated that thought over and over.
