Firefly Glen reptile boy

A crow.  So a crow had apparently gifted her a bone, which was WAY more than Fennec had expected her to obtain out of this little exercise.  She'd thought maybe Sialuk would give up and call her on her bluff but instead she'd just added even more enthusiasm to her drive.  Fennec loved it and one hundred percent was not about to disappoint her.

It seems you've found your guide.  Every good witch needs a familiar who will walk with them in the shadow realm and help them to interpret the future.  They ensure you aren't lost in time, and birds are the best because they are not anchored to the ground like we are.  Fennec replied, impressing herself with the way she pulled that little note straight out of her ass.  Well, who was to say it wasn't true, anyway?  It made about as much sense as anything else.

I can't tell you specifically the message, or what you should do with the bone.  That's between you and your guide.  I'd try to find out their name, though, so you can call on them.  She was smiling a very full, very honest smile at this point because this was probably about the best mentoring opportunity she could have dreamed of.  Better than anything she'd hoped for, in fact.  I'll need to find a guide now, I suppose, she thought silently to herself.  Doubtless Sialuk would ask to see them sometime and while she had an answer for that now, it would really bring the story forward.  Plus, ever since Fig had brought it up all those years ago, a part of her had wanted to try out a bird companion.  Mom always spoke so highly of her time with X, and it would be rad as hell to have a companion who might help her in a hunt.
