She was glad to hear that; she’d briefly forgotten that he’d been around long enough to know what they said and meant. “Um… not quite sure on that. We think it’s because of… you know… the gods waking up and everything. All the extra magic around. But we don’t know why me; no one else can see them.”

"What else happen to you?" He paced. "This strange, this something from long, long time ago, people see ghost sometimes and they sacred people. They called Wind Speakers."

Ky furrowed her brow, pulling her coats tighter around her though she didn’t rebutton them yet until she got the rune back. “Um… that’s all, really. Just… I don’t know. Myna knew somehow even though I didn’t tell her. So. There’s gotta be something funny about me now but I don’t know what or why.”

He handed the bone back to her. "Trolls have good eyes. She see something in you?"

“Yeah.” Ky nodded and slipped the rune back in her pocket, patting it for a moment to reassure herself it had made it fully back in and hadn’t fallen out. It was making her anxious to be responsible for this. “I don’t know how. She confronted me if anything weird was happening and I…” she blushed. “…lied… but then Tomhas told her the truth and she gave me this.”

"Hmmm." He thought for a moment. "What you know about gods?"

“Not much.” She shook her head, anxious that he was bringing them up. Was she really in danger of being noticed by them like others had claimed? Gods. “… Just… Haelar does spirit stuff… so… I don’t know. Why?”

"I just wonder." He frowned. "Haelar not awake. But this...maybe he waking soon?"

“Maybe.” She frowned and buttoned up her coats, looking away. “I don’t want… I hope not.”

“I don’t know.” She shrank, looking very, very small despite her mountain of coats. “Die, I guess. I don’t know how to fix it.”

"No die," he said with a frown. "You not do anything, that the answer. You just human. But if you see ghost then maybe he dreaming about you."

“Why would he be dreaming about me?” She pouted. “I’m not even Northern; not really. I want it to stop. I want him to stop.”

"You tell him stop, but I not think he listen." He looked off toward the woods. "He not as bad as some gods."

I see no reason to celebrate the random timing of natural events by eating poison and singing.
