Willowing

Willowing is a kingfisher and a close companion of the White King Laat. He lived on the coast of Corvid Xol and was continuously harrassed by magpies and crows. When Laat arrived in Corvid Camanth, three ravens had cornered the tiny kingfisher in an abandoned rabbit's hole, threateningto eat him if he left the safety of the burrow. Laat, angered by this display, attacked the three ravens in an attempt to save the little bird, and the ravens, believing Laat to be the raven god Korvax, abandoned the kingfisher in order to bring Laat to their king. Willowing was coaxed out of the burrow by Laat, and from that moment forward, the little kingfisher never left his savior's side.
