Over the domains of both Mephilia and Volumdreemak, there have been sightings of monstrous cross, the size of huskies and with greenish tinted feathers, a result of their acidic saliva. They have been migrating all over recently, originating from the city of order. So far around 10 have been sighted, mostly in groups.
"We have company, what are they." Mephilia says as she spots them.
"Are they ememies, or just passing through?" Volumdremaak replies from the shadowy void that is her being, as she is finishing conjuring another skeleton war horse for her newly appointing Umbral guard.
"Not sure, maybe we should have some of our drakes scout it out"
Mephilia orders a few of her Lantern drakes to fly up and check them out. Volumdremaak orders a few of her shadow drakes to go as well.

Three of them are encountered by those lantern drakes. They seem to be searching for a spot to land, and they also look hungry. Very hungry. one of them eyes the lantern drake, greenish saliva dripping from it’s beak.

It squawks back, seemingly incapable of speech. It approaches a few feet closer to the lantern drake, trying to peck at it. It’s saliva sprays everywhere as it pecks and squawks, not dangerous yet but a bit painful to those coming into contact with it.

Curious, it tilt’s its head in intrigue and stops attacking. At the mention of food, the other two turn their heads and fly over.
The drake motions towards one half of the Kingdom of Duality that is shrouded in shadows as if always in night, the Hallowed Meadows of Tenebrous. One section of this meadow is a collection of corpses and skeletons, where Volumdremaak has been practicing her necromantic arts to reanimate these animal corpses.
The drakes begin to fly towards this place, the Necrotic Grotto.

The drakes begin to fly towards this place, the Necrotic Grotto.
The three crows call into the sky, and seven more meet them from the surrounding area, previously hiding in trees or perched in bushes. The ten crows all swoop down into the necrotic grotto and begin to feast on the corpses. They’re ravenous, like hyenas with wings, tearing flesh from bone before swallowing said bones whole, they leave nothing behind and eat faster than any normal animal.

"Curious creatures" A voice whispers in the darkness, many violet dragon eyes float around, watching the creatures with interest.
"I wonder what being could have spawned such ravanous creations."
Volumdremaak simply observes them as she conjures another Shadow from one of the poor lost souls her drakes have collected.

Volumdremaak simply observes them as she conjures another Shadow from one of the poor lost souls her drakes have collected.
Within say, an hour, the ten crows have completely devoured several corpses. They leave others untouched and now seem mostly sated. Volumdremaak sees one of them start to collect twigs, sticks, grasses, and webs and other similar materials and start to arrange them up in the tall branches of a small tree. It’s not very good at it at first but it seems to start to get the hang of it. It’s forming the start of a nest. A few of the other birds start to do so as well, in other trees or on top of large rocks or similar areas.

Eventually, most of them make nests, some of them sharing communal, larger nests as well. In addition, they often peck a certain symbol into the nearby wood or stone near their nests: a spiral with a sort of eye at the center, the spiral having multiple offshoots and lines, almost like a staircase. Now, otherwise for the most part, they are acting like normal crows. Very very large, very hungry, very toxic crows.
(if you wanted we could timeskip this interaction to after a few days have gone by because then the crows are gonna do some more stuff, unless you want Volumdremaak to interact with them some more right now)

*alright!*
over the next few days, she notices that the crows, mostly staying near the grotto, cover their feathers as well as their nests in their greenish saliva, giving the tips of their feathers that toxic green color. They mostly avoid people but when they do encounter them, they stay up high and launch at them sprays of acidic spittle, mostly harmless but it causes rashes and painful red bumps. After around a week, she also notices that all of them, every single one of the ten monstrous crows, lays two to three eggs. So in total, around 25 eggs. They are quite large, around the size of an open palm, and are mottled with black spots. The crows keep the eggs snug under a layer of sticks, twigs, and cobwebs, and layer them in that same acidic spittle to drive anything trying to touch it away.

Volumdremaak has her people steer clear of theses nest, and only has her slowly growing undead workforce move about the Necrotic Grotto. She has also been collecting some of the feathers, considering learning more about their biology in order to create an undead or shadowed variation of these crow creatures once she has increased her power enough.
