| Aesrira is still searching for the meaning of the beasts
| within, but here are her thoughts so far.
|
| Timber Wolf - On this she is fairly certain. She believes the
| wolf represents her pack nature. The need for family and the fact
| the she considers the other Hunters as her family.
|
| Porcupine - Protective and nurturing as the mother, yet not
| surprisingly with sharp quills. As a mother must often cuff the cubs
| to keep them safe or when they go astray. And yet, there is also a
| bit of the Crone to be as well, as even a blooming rose has thorns.
| And those quills that may gently cuff a cub, may one day also stick
| and cull the fields.
|
| Alligator - This is the beast she is least sure of, for the
| Crone has yet to come and she is still ripe with youth and a
| Mother's love. Something that will never truly leave her, she hopes.
| Yet, although this beast has the Bite of the Crone, one can see a
| bit of the maiden if they know how to see. It may swim the seas wild
| and free. It is full of life, regenerating, just as the maiden is
| full of youth.
|
| So, as she looks to the beasts that are within her, she is
| more convinced than ever that she was right and Alanathariella was
| wrong. There is no choice. She is proof of that. Now she must begin
| exploring fully these beasts within if she is to gain insight into
| her weavings. The insight, she believes Alanathariella is
| withholding from herself and her students.
