Birds
While the normal citizens are fascinated by the message that came with pigeons, the small-time business owners and moderately reputed cultivators got bigger birds.
Crows and ravens, the city guards got bigger birds, the guard captain got an owl.
Not just them, the birds went to the students in every academy and to the instructors. The student got ravens and the teachers got small-sized eagles.
The higher the position the bigger the bird.
Pearl who is sitting in her courtyard is also examining the bird in her hand. Her lackeys, including Rain all got one themselves.
All her lackeys got ravens, but hers is a sea hawk. More like a baby one that was still growing. Bigger than the ravens and crows, but smaller than the eagles that were sent to the instructors.

'Wear the band on your wrist.'
