This scene is a direct followup to: [Scout That Hollow]

With information in hand, the wereraven is in dire need of unburdening himself of what he saw. Flying back from where he was, that is the easy part. Finding Sten or Aaryn? That is the hard part! He may have eyes of a Hawk, but in the end the area is really large. Like, truly so. With lots of trees. And brushes. And wolves. Come to think of it, he has never seen Stens wolf form. This could take a while! So, starting out at the Caern, the raven starts a pattern of flying randomly over the forested bawn around it, trying to find either of the two Get of Fenris.

Sten rarely used his wolf form when just walking about which was lucky for the Corax. He was around the small cabins where he lived though heading out to head towards the kinhouse to meet up with his sister.

Success! The ravens eyes does not fail him. They rarely do, though, after all. They are two black pools of amazing things that he can always rely upon. Spotting the Son of Fenris, the raven begins to descend. It aims to head him off at the pass, at it were, making sure to find a good perch on a high branch so that it will look as if he has been there all morning. He does not try to be hidden, either, making sure the light hits him good.

Sten smiles as he spots the Raven "Hrafn" he says with a nod towards the bird stopping in his tracks. "What brings you here?" The large swede waits and listens for what the Raven has to say, quite curious since he never gotten a Ravengram before.

The large bird sits silently for a few moments, watching the man arriving. Head tilts to the side, black eye peering down at him before he finally lifts his head up a bit. His beak opens and clicks a few times in the air before he speaks, "I have found taint. I have found what attacks the land, Son of Fenris!" he announces with, perhaps, a bit too much drama in his voice, "A creature of Colony that speaks in the corrupt language of the Wyrm recruits miscreants and lowlives for his own uses. The Black Dawn resides in a build of blue, with many guards and many weapons. From there, they go the woods. They go to the pipe which pollutes and taints the waters."

Sten nods and looks to the Raven. "So in a blue building a creature of wyrm is gathering humans to corrupt and polute the waters in the woods?" trying to make sure he got this right as he watches the Raven. "Can you show us where this building is? And where this pipe is?"

The raven clicks its beak a few times more, lowering its head a bit as it peers down at Sten, "Hmm. A bit dramatic.." the bird speaks, "..and obscure. Perhaps best I speak plainly" he adds, "I have done as the cloud have asked. I have found the ones that angered it." he speaks, "Black-Dawn is the source. They work out of a well defended building and they have a lot of firearms. The words outside their building read it as a rehabilitation centre. For prisoners, I would guess, from what I saw. Their leader is a really large creature. I believe a Fomor. It spoke within itself. Many creatures in one creature. I can show where the pipe is. And where their office is. A map.. we need a map."

Sten nods "I can get a map." looking up to the Raven with a some concern "Is the office in the city?" he asks trying to ponder just how and where they can strike properly. To know and learn how they could tackle this problem on the two fronts."

"It was in the outskirts of the city. Not within the city." The raven replies to this, "It looked somewhat isolated. Perhaps why it was so well armed." The bird muses, "Many guards on the roof, on the ground and many more within the building itself. Might need a distraction to get some of them to leave."

Sten nods "We will have to lay battleplans on how we strike. But if it is away from other humans it will allows us more heavy attacks if needed. Possibly when they go to the pipe, take them when they are split up and then strike their homebase" seeming to ponder. "I will tell Guides the Dead and Ironside"

"Not wise to how, the human ways in that regard confuses me somewhat." The raven starts, "But I have flown over many building sites. They all have papers with the building in print. Shows levels. Plans. Layouts. Perhaps someone forgot to toss away the plans for that building." he suggests, "Or I can try to sneak in there and see whats inside! Dangerous, though. I am not bulletproof."

Sten nods "We will see if we can get our hands on some blueprints... but I doubt we will. Either way we need to scout it out and find weaknesses we can exploit in their defences and guards, hopefully we can make it so we can take out that Formori alone"

"Then we need a map." The raven replies to this, wings spreading a bit before settling back to his body, "We need a map of the area. So I can show you where the pipe was found. And where the building is." the bird moves a bit sideways on the branch.

Sten fishes out his cellphone and gets up a map of the area on it. Motioning for the Raven and offering his shoulder or arm for him to perch on. "I got a small one here, not sure how accurate they are for area but should work"

The raven leaps off from his perch on the branch, spreading his large wings and sailing down with such grace, until he lands without much effort on Stens shoulder. Wings slowly fold along his body, taking a few moments to poke his beak into his feathers, adjusting and preening. Once done, his eyes turn to the cellphone, "I have used these before. Stolen several in my days." he replies to this before he starts to give directions on where to mark out the pipe and the building on the map.

Sten thusly marks the building and the pipe on the map. "Thank you Hrafn, if you find anything else do tell and we will, leave a the sticks if we find something that could be useful"

"I will. And I ask only one favour. That I be allowed to join your Hunt when you attack." The raven says, taking flight and leaving his shoulder, heading back to the branch, "I wish to assist in rooting out the taint. I wish to see the Sons and Daughters of Fenris in battle and I wish to drink the eyes of the fallen when you rend them."

Sten nods "We already promised you that, you will join us and you will drink your fill of eyes."

Common Raven lets out a loud crawing sound, filling the air with it. He spreads his wings, "I will return to the place of the enemy, keep my eyes upon them. If they do anything apart from what normally done, I will alert you. I will leave Bob with you, so that you can warn me if you are on the move. He will be around and nearby." To this, the raven takes flight and is off over the trees.
