DUSKRAYS
Duskrays are nocturnal birds native to Tehom, known for beginning their song at twilight when the first stars appear. Their calls carry across fields, passes, and settlements, marking the shift from day into night.
Their flight is quiet and remarkably stable, allowing for smooth, controlled movement through low light. Because of this, Duskray feathers are highly valued for arrow fletching. Their eggs are distinctly colorful, and once hatched, the shells are collected and used in Tehom for decorative and crafted work.
