I'm all for keeping things lore friendly and not ripping off an idea. The concept is sound, information gathering and informing can be done in a number of ways, birds is one example. The evolution of RPG's has its roots in the Fantasy genre, all sorts of ideas have been written, watched or played within the genre. If we discount ideas because they relate to another Fantasy series, I think we limit ourselves to other possibilities we may not have otherwise reached. Experimentation and taking risks is sometimes needed to evolve an idea. I enjoy chilli chocolate, some people dont, I'm fine with that.
