Souls and Sola's

^^ Erie ^^

--- Day 145 AD, 08:00 ---

I stood up slowly, and paced, staring at Drake, who was standing, mindless, in the corner.

I sighed and sat down, deciding to speak to Tern. I entered Frey's mind, and leaned my head back.

I slithered along the forest floor, and followed Tern's scent, ending up at his hut. I entered, and coiled up in front of him.

"Hello, Tern. Long time no ssspeak." I said through Frey.

He slowly opened his eyes, and hummed. "Ah, Caleb... What's the occasion?"

"I would like to know sssomething... What will happen if I use a human Mage to make a familiar?" I asked simply.

He blinked slowly. "I... It's been tried before, by a Shifter who wanted to be able to recycle his consciousness, but age normally and live a normal lifetime, each time."

"Did he sssuccssseed?"

"His Sola (reincarnation) still exists today, the 14th, I believe. He was an Old One, like you. He used a miscarried baby as fuel for a familiar, and received a whole one." He nodded.

"I sssee... And the child?"

"When it was created, he pulled his soul out of his dagger, and into the child, as it had no soul before. It grew as any child, and he died immediately, or so everyone thought, until the child began displaying his magical abilities. Memory was later established, though only a small set of snippets. All his knowledge was present."

"And how did the next one come about?"

"When he died, another child, seemingly random, that one a girl, was born, and letter developed the knowledge and skills, and the same Small set of memories, that were later learned to have been set there by the original on purpose, so he would always know who he was. That continued for 14 generations. 14 Sola's." He nodded.

I hissed in interest. "Very interesssting... I will look into thisss sssome more... Wasss there any sssignificant sssign each child was the ssSola?"

"The eyes. The child's eyes were always the same as the originals Shifter eyes, and they were always Wolf Shifters, despite their parentage. Even one generation, a wolf was born to a family of Snakes. My great-uncle was one of the children." He answered.

"And their children?"

"The children of the Sola's displayed the traits of both the Sola and their second parent, though heavily leant towards the Sola." He hummed.

"Alwaysss?"

"There were rare cases in which certain children didn't, and were instead directly similar to their grandparents and mothers, or in two cases, their fathers." He shook his head in confusion.

"Ssso the ssSola was changed not only physssically and mentally, but also hisss genesss were altered... Interesssting... Thank you, Tern. I am most pleasssed with thisss Lessson." I bowed my snakes head, and slithered out, disconnecting.

Tizzy stood in front of me when I opened my eyes. "You know how weird it is for non-shifters to see your eyes do that?" She asked.

"I can imagine. What do you need, my love?" I pulled her into my lap.

"Heh. It's summer break. You need to take a break." She smiled.
