Chapter 14 - The Elder
Moriuk - Priest - Scavenger
Moriuk is the oldest member of the clan, older that Human even. She was blown in during a particularly rough blizzard. She had been lost all night and was too tired to keep going, so she gave up control of her body and let the wind take her. Human ended up finding her the next morning, almost completely covered in ice.
She likes to spend her time alone, sometimes flying, sometimes building little trinkets out of sap and other things she finds. She doesn’t mess with Caddock as much as the others, maybe because he knows the fae language and is very accustomed to their style of living.
-----
Moriuk doesn’t talk about her previous clan, or the markings on her body and face. She laughs off any questions and changes the topic. This started getting annoying for Madlen, knowing that this new dragon could mean harm to them. She decides to ask the spirits about her, setting up all her gear and cleaning her mind.
Silence.
Madlen tries to concentrate harder, but still there’s nothing. This has never happened before, the spirits are never silent. Even when she wasn’t concentrating they were always whispering at the edges of her mind.
But now, whenever she would turn her focus to Moriuk, they would go silent once more.
Madlen couldn’t see anything, not even about the fae’s past or present! She ended her focus and left to find Human.
