A Close Encounter
Officer Sarah was no stranger to curious creatures, but the baby owl’s persistence was unlike anything she’d encountered. Its eyes, a blend of innocence and desperation, locked onto hers, and the pendant attached to its leg seemed oddly out of place. She could sense the weight of its significance, yet she couldn’t help but wonder—how had a tiny owl come across such an extraordinary item?

Gained Trust
Dr. Steven Mitchell, his expression marked with curiosity, suggested a gentler approach. “These creatures are sensitive,” he whispered. Together, they moved slowly and deliberately, trying to build a bond of trust with the owl. The bird clutched the pendant tightly in its talons, its eyes flicking between the two humans as it carefully assessed their intentions.
