He heard her get up and move away, so he opened his eyes and saw her move towards Midnight.  She laid down next to the Tarn and under its wing.  He shook his head.  Well she had inteligence that was for sure.  She figured out a way to stay warm.  But would Midnight allow her to stay there.  He watched and Midnight moved his head from under his wing and moved the wing to look at Reese laying there.  He nudged her with his beak then placed his wing back over her to keep her warm and protected.  He looked over at Daniel cocking his head to one side as if asking something, then tucked his head back under his wing.  Daniel just shook his head and closed his eyes again.  After awhile he fell asleep and awoke in the morning before the sun came up.  He restarted the fire and prepared a porridge like breakfast.  The air was still cool and would be until the sun rose.  Midnight woke and moved from where he had been, the cold air now surrounding the naked body of Reese.<br/><br/>"Time to get up."  he called to her.  If his voice did not wake her the cold would.  He began packing things up except the bowls with the porridge in them.  He placed everything back into the saddle bags and stood by the fire as he ate.  He threw the fur to her so she would not be cold as she ate her breakfast.  They had a full day flight before they reached Ar's station.  Perhaps another night on the plain before he flew to the city.  It would be wiser to approach during the light of day then at night.  The Tarn Patrols could the see them better and know they were not trying to sneak into the city.  After cleaning the bowls and pot once more he put those away and lifted Reese up into the saddle and then mounted up himself.  Once more they were in the air and in silence.  He had nothing more to say to her.  Again they stopped about mid day and he prepared a meal and let Midnight hunt.  He said nothing to her but tended to his sword, cleaning, sharpening and oiling it.  When Midnight returned, he petted its beak, "We will be there soon my friend.  You will have a nice roost and other Tarns to keep you company.  A place to call home."
