тАЬThe time of Hawklan is so far in the past that it could be the distant futureтАЭ

Prologue

Frantically the valleys and peaks sped by. Gone now was even a vestige of pretence at silence and
stealth as the brown bird, its ghastly yellow eyes glittering, hurtled over the mountains from Riddin to
Orthlund.
Contained within was the news of HawklanтАЩs escape from the trap at the Gretmearc. Within was the
news of the destruction of that trap by a strange old man. Within rang the terrible noise of the battle that
was even now being fought with that same man for control of the birdsтАЩ will.

The bird faltered. The battle or the message? All effort to the message, and it would be bound utterly.
All effort to the battle, and the message might still be lost.

Then its masterтАЩs will reached out and touched it. The message must be delivered at whatever cost.

Unsteadily, the bird flew on, its wings a numbing vibration, until suddenlyhe was there. Tall and lank.
Alien in the Orthlund sunshine. His eyes, red beacons from another age.

The bird dropped out of the sky towards him . . .
