She opened the wardrobe and found a few wooden clothing hangers. She easily broke them into the sizes that she needed and returned to Sinthos. After spreading out the splints and wrappings on the bed she went to work, carefully realigning the bones and applying the splints to ensure they would heal correct. "I'm sorry," she said softly. "If I hurt you, I don't mean to."

"No one?" she echoed curiously, still stroking the delicate feathers. "Why not? Your wings are beautiful..."
