Firefly Glen reptile boy

A guide? A familiar? Sialuk listened intently, soaking up whatever the witch said. It sounded as though she would need to communicate with her guide to find out how to use the bone, something she was now quite eager to do. Not only that, but she would need to learn the name of the quanglaagix. Her familiar, her guide. The thought was exhilarating, as if she had somehow been chosen by this bird. Had it somehow known she was looking to speak to animals? She had attempted it with a few more, but those had not amounted to anything... but maybe they had managed to alert the crow to her quest. Whatever the case, this was an exciting development.

Naturally, Sialuk asked an obvious question. Since the witch was familiar with guides... Who is your guide? she asked. And how did you learn their name? Knowing that might give Sialuk some hints on how to learn the name of her own guide. Perhaps her mother would know of this as well. Sialuk wondered what word would be used in anaa's language, too.
