Avians

Avians, or birds, are feathered creatures known for enchanting songs, migratory patterns, and impressive adaptability. The connection between avians and sound is profound. Their calls are expressions of identity and existence. Each species has a unique set of sounds and each individual has unique versions of these sounds. Their songs, often short and fleeting, embody the concept of transience. It is said that ancient birds created the first sound in Ebdypha, as distinct from mere noise.

Ancient tales talk of these avians and their ancient eggs, believed to have since turned to stone and become thunderstones. These stones have the ability to resonate sound, leading many to believe that the great ancient birds were so large and powerful that they caused winds when they took flight and landed, and changed weather when they flew in flocks. The hatching of a thunderstorm was said to be a thunderous event.
