Certainly, Gandalf. I haven't fed Wyrd yet tonight, so he will be expecting to hear from me.

Bethberry nodded, took the rolled parchment from Gandalf, and walked to the open window where all had earlier seen the black horse of Mordor neighing triumphantly.

She whistled twice, sharply, in quick succession, and Wyrd rapidly came to perch on the window frame. Bethberry slipped the parchment into a metal clasp around his leg, and then stroked his head and fed him something she had retrieved from her leather bag. Whispering in a language none present could understand, she then lifted him up and tossed him into the air, where his wing beats rapidly lifted him out of sight, but not before he startled the two delinquent hobbits, Holly and Olo, whose shrieks as he appeared out of nowhere had certainly alerted the Ranger to their attempts at stealth.
