Dragoncrest Cliffs intervention

Sialuk watched for signs in the other girl, some inkling of what her feeling on the outcome of her first throw had been... but nothing showed itself to the Ostrega. Instead, the girl posed a question to the starwoman. One she did not know how to answer, seeing as she did not know the question asked of the sacred antler.

Reading the outcome takes time, Sialuk said. I think it is not only the yes or no, but also the relationship to you that matters. Which way the tines point is only one piece of the whole. What did it land upon? Are the tines close or far away from you? Did it roll? Does the tine end point toward the sunrise or sunset? Layer upon layer of answer could be found this way, Sialuk had learned. One merely had to seek out the multi-layer answers instead of seeing only the surface of things.
