'Amazing!' though Camlost to himself.'No matter how many times I've seen them do it, it still astounds me.' He watched closely as Rose's cheeks turned from a light pink flush to a deep red staining her cheekbones.

Since the comment from the hobbit Ranger about villages looking after their own, her attention had been drawn away from the crow, as she tried to follow the conversation. Camlost hopped off her arm and inched toward her pack, one eye fixed on the shiny ribbon. He had reached it and was just easing the last of it from under the flap, when a large hand caught him in its grip and hoisted him upward.

'Now, Camlost, be a nice bird and give the young ranger back her ribbon.' The crow dropped the prize and squawked indignantly at Eärendur, delivering a few well aimed pecks at the man's hand.
