Expo: Birdman (Rhokir) is on death row, waiting for his days to end for a crime he did not commit.
In-in: Several days before his execution, a powerful spirit comes to him, offering them both a way out, but all options come with a price.
Conflict: This entity gave Rhokir two options: take the spirit as an addition to his own (basically voluntary possession) and jump from the tiny window, but abandon the life (and family) he knew and came to love before prison--or give up his avium ancestry to the spirit (lose all power of flight and other such things) and return to the life he knew before.
Crisis: It is execution day and the offer still stands, but the clock is ticking, just he hears the guards approaching down the corridor, Rhokir makes a decision.
Resolution: Rhokir chooses to except the spirit as part of his own--it blasts a hole through the bars of the window and they escape, melded together--though he flies from entrapment, he flies on a path away from home.
