With permission from the mods, as of this post the forest is once again populated with birds--all the regular kinds you'd find in any Scottish forest and a few more besides. (Keiran Green likes peacocks. It's all the colors.)

And since babygods had a hand in their creation, these birds cannot be killed. Hit them with a rock or shoot them with an arrow, they'll only be stunned a moment and then get back to their birdy business.

So, can we expect there to be a massive increase in the bird population over time? What happens if a demon bunny gets hungry for bird? Will these birds age and die if left alone?

Asking not to be a nitpicker so much as because there are some interesting things you could do with a burgeoning bird population, especially if Jack plays the indulgent father and doesn't fix things. (I am seeing him relenting to demands from the staff, followed by a rather strange and totally sanctioned bird-hunt.)

They can die of natural causes. It's in the post. Although a sanctioned hunt may be called for if things get out of control . . .

[sdelmonte]

Oops. My bad.

[jack_inthegreen]

Is no big.

Only natural causes, h'm...*speculative look* I think I feel a miniplot trying to sneak up on me here.

Your post is lovely. I'd have Sooraya come say 'hi' but that really feels like something better left as is. Thank you.

You know, old age, predators, whatever else birds die of . . .

Thank you :).

Just cause I love and I love your post and I love your idea (and I'm personally already giddy for a possibly imposed sanction hunt), I'm playing devil advocate. *smirks all lovingly*

You just said predators could take down birds, but made it clear humans don't really count in that predatory list?

[jack_inthegreen]

Humans are not on the predatory list. Other critters are.
