Melinda

A small female sparrow with uncanny intelligence, this bird introduced itself to Broken Tusk as Melinda when he used Speak with Animals. She has taken to Jack and hardly leaves his side, though apparently she thinks his name is Will. 
Melinda was found following the group in the Seldarin Mountains the day following the group's encounter with a circle of faeries. She appears to be the result of a wish made by Jack. According to the conversation she had with Broken Tusk, she has very little memory about where she was before she found the group, though she remembers being in a city, and remembers "Will". Jack is very evasive about his thoughts in the matter, though he treats the small bird with great delicacy and kindness; Ridley seems to know something about it, but is also unwilling to share.
