Walking along a bunch of Gwythaints were sited circling some sort of prey. All of a sudden a swarm of thousands of black dots attacked the Gwythaints.
They were crows! The Gwythaints retreated and the crows went away, all but one which flew to them. It was Kaw. Kaw told Taran everything and even that Achren was what the Gwthaints were circling. They hurried over to her and used herbs to heal her. Carrying Achren they trudged into snow filled hills. Soon he and his friends got too tired. The only sort of shelter was a small over hang which the sat under. It protected them from snow but the wind and air were still freezing. Eilowny and Gurgi fell asleep. Taran tried to keep them awake knowing if they went to sleep at this temperature they would never wake up. Desperate for heat Fflewddur broke his harp into small peices. He then burnt it. Everyone huddled around the warmth and it lasted until morning.
