Leucothoë was glad to hear that there was more going on than she had initially imagined. The clarification was necessary for her to understand precisely where they were at... and she nodded at Caiaphas's words. For the Sea was just in all things, although sometimes cruelly so.

The Sea prefers new life, or sometimes the life of those very old. It is believed that the new life given from the land will add to the lives within the Sea. The old that might be given share their knowledge gleaned from this place and take it to the next. That was why Leucothoë did her scrying with old bones; the dead had learned lessons the living had yet to learn. Leucothoë looked to Caiaphas, and continued. It does not matter what it is, so long as it is something of value. A meal we will never have. A wolf we may never know. It must be something sacrificed and virtuous. New life might be more difficult to find than old. Either, this time, would do.
