Screech

Screech is a white goshawk. Screech and his brother, Sheer, lived on the unnamed eastern island alongside the coast of Corvid, visiting the six kingdoms only to bring prophecies to the kings and queens who rule them. Unlike Sheer, who is the only other known raptor in the six kingdoms (or the Other) besides Dirgen to know the exact contents of the prophecy of the Te'pi, Screech has no powers to probe the Stream or consult the Omens; during his brother's journeys, he acts as a bodyguard, and is much larger and stronger than Sheer.

It is speculated that Screech and Sheer are both several hundred years old. After the prophecy was fulfilled and Laat became the king of Gyr, both Sheer and Screech disappeared, unable to be found in the six kingdoms. When Saygar travels from Gyr to the Other in search of the truth of Ieilae, he meets Sheer alone on the lonely Mountain of Tor, the original nesting place of Ieilae, and received knowledge about the falcon god's exile and the truth of the Cult of Ieilae. Sheer, refusing to speak of his brother, gives no insight into Screech's whereabouts, making it impossible to tell whether Screech had died at that point or was visiting or living in another area during that time.

It is said that Screech, and his brother Sheer, are related to the goshawk hero Lliot, who was part of the Four who banished Tor and the gyrfalcons from the Land.
