Still no new spell nor i will speak about protecting the house.
As i can only notice that every things i can use to form a safe barrier around my house is ... useless.
My familiar didn't come back. I think it died. It pain me. Greatly. A familiar must be protected by the contractor for all his life. In exchange if the contractor has a mortal accident or is hurt the familiar will take the full damage to ensure that the contractor survives.
Such loyality such trust and bond is hard to form. Even the most loving pet may choose to stay a pet and to not be a familiar. To create this kind of bond you must have an early connexion. In instance a kitten who still need the mother's milk being taken care by you for a few hours nearly every day. And even... then... It's best to know his ancestors generation after generation for it to works. Your very existence will then be marked in their blood, in their lineage, in their collective memory in their senses.
I don't say that it's impossible to have a familiar amongst pet adopted after leaving his mother but clearly it ls rarer.
Then it take times to know the animal. You need to speak to him or her like an human. You can in some moments speak in " baby voice" to your pet but in most time you must treat them like your equal. Suche creature is proud you see. And so don't you dare " punish" them. Or the bond will have damage. You can however express that you aren't satified with them by just speaking and explaining.
Anyway, i lost my familiar and my other animals. To top it off the newborns of my pets didn't survive long. It's bad year for the livings. Death is rummaging in my dwelling circling it.
What is taking my precious living beings out of my arms?
A fox? A weasel? A wolf? A badger?
It can't be a weasel because it will leaves the corpse. A fox? Its cunning enough to escape my watch and i did see a fox around but he took his prey so fast, and some were at so much heavier than him. By the traces left he had to drag them along a huge slope. Does he or she have the strenght? I have my doubt.
Then a badger or a wolf?
I think a wolf wouldn't attack like this. It's... too neat... I don't see footsteps on the earth nor blood, nor much part of the dead animals around.
And it will need to eat a lot more. Why not attack the sheeps in place of my animals?
It could be a badger.
But i don't see big hole that will relate their passage. Nor did i ever see a badger in my territory.
who is it?
The humans?
or a creature of magic?
That's why i concluded that my barrier of protection isn't useful. I need to better myself. Or maybe i will die before i can by whatever is here.
Witch you see is a meal of quality for "others". it may kill all the animals around to prevent me from having a familiar that can save my life and thus making me more powerful or maybe its just hungry.
On a side note the banshee still scream sometimes but farer from my house than before.... Does it fear something?
