Grief And The Elements

The People Of The Wind, XV.

Pathetic fallacy. Eyath learns that Vodan has been killed in battle and nature responds:

night falls;

wind rises;

clouds break;

the moon, Morgana, flees;

surf threshes;

trees roar;

air chills;

Eyath flies alone.

An Ythrian grieves in the elements, not under shelter. Arinnian had thought that she could be the sun or the wind... Oneness with nature is natural for intelligent flying carnivores.
