So, maybe this is not a good question, because this city does not have much spirituality. But it is worth trying, I think!
Where I am from, sometimes contacting the spirit world needs, ah... [She mumbles a few words to herself in Taurahe, looking away. She is clearly frustrated by the lack of a proper word for what she's trying to say.]
...I don't know. Like a drink, almost, but made of powerful ingredients. Water from a river and not the steel pipes, herbs, hearts maybe, like that. Maybe here it is food, or something else, but there is something that can help with that, right?
I know humans are not very... good with this. Um, not as an insult! They are good at other things. But they are also distanced from nature and their ancestors, I have seen. Especially here. And, uh... W-well, speaking of humans, I am wondering. I wondered for a long time. People can become human here, right? ...And only human?
[Aah, crap, where was she going with this. She bites her lip and glances down, looking a little ashamed of herself.]
I-I can't, uh... This sounds bad, now... I was just wondering why. It is not like home, is all! So, for those who do it, why do you do it? How did that start here?
--But also, the spirit thing is still the most important question right now. Thank you. | |
