But even as you study the rubble, you feel a new spirit nearby: one yet unborn. The spirit presses against the walls of reality, asking you to build a place where it might abide. You see the shape of the Falcon of Many Faces, and know how to build him to make him real. He promises the languages of birds and beasts, and command over the creatures of Gaia. A modest outlay for supplies, a trip to Lucinda to have a place to work, and you could call down the Falcon.

Using the Falcon-Gift: Broad Brook's falcon spirits grant you the power to communicate with and command birds and beasts. Employing this Gift requires Rage and relies on your Composure.

Earning the Falcon-Gift: Though called a "falcon," like the Silver Fangs' Patron Spirit, this falcon is actually closer to the Hart Warden tribe. The only way this new spirit would agree to teach you is if you swore to serve Stag, though you suspect that even if you became a Warden, your commitment to the Litany is insufficient for this spirit, despite the Honor you've earned.

After an initial outlay to rebuild the physical statue, you'll need to spend four nights in Honorable chiminage to earn the Gift. However, in exchange for this work, the spirit promises to tell the blackbirds and starlings about your Honorable deeds, in addition to granting you his Gift.

Chiminage Possible:

Glory: 3 nights

Honor: 10 nights

Wisdom: 3 nights
