Alone againbshe returns to her endless task, to swim, to eat, to survive.

But sometimes her mind returns to the sensation of feeling something unknown..strange..looking back at her

Sam Davies @stutterhug.bsky.social · 08/05/2025

It feels cold, inert, uninviting.. But somewhere inside, she senses a watching presence looking back at her..

Startled, she retreats, leaving the fish to be swallowed back into the darkness.

She sees a strange silver something coming towards her

Tentatively, she reaches out to learn if this kind of fish is for eating

in the dark season they crash down over the villages, bellowing, shaking each heart who hears their wild calls

in the mornings feathers of blue cloud float, soft and glittered among the footpaths like shadowed snow

despite the terror they inspire, the mountain folk revere them, making shrines of each tree and roof struck by their lightning

when questioned about their reluctance to use their magic, they will sometimes say its too easy to predict the future

what is hard is seeing the present..

without trying to fly away from it

unfortunately, the Oracle owl seems intensely disinterested in ever using its magic

they only give vague and half finished predictions, often getting bored before they finish..

or refuse to speak at all

Sam Davies @stutterhug.bsky.social · 23/02/2025

The very low energy Oracle Owl

scholars agree oracle owls are some of the most powerful psychic creatures ever studied

their magic to body ratio is outmatched only by pheonixes in mid burn
