Crows
Huginn: They are much like us. Our common ancestor was the Thunderbird.
Muninn: Yes, but I remember that they are the ones who were charred as they flew too close to the sun.
H: Was that not legend only?
M: Truth, or memory. Jays are naughty children, rooks are earnest assassins, but crows — crows are the cowards and bullies who aim at greater things than themselves. And of course, we are legends.
H: (dubiously) Are we legends? Or are we myths?
M: Both, and more. But watch the crows: they are carriers of ill tidings.

Hmm but ravens are often connected with death, and the afterlife too.
Of course not necessarily to degenerate you to the level of a crow. Even then, both are associated with darker and mysterious things - possibly natural logical association with their color?
Who knows.
