So wrong account but I've got a half-done tag in another tab and questions!

At the end of last QC Jaunt, Lupa had done a reading of Questing Country's Will, and gotten a vision: A fish with a hook in its mouth, surging and fighting against a line, a bull on sands stuck full of barbed bone javelins in his shoulders, and a wyvern pulling a kite made out of a wyvern's wing along behind it. At the time, I assumed (and Lupa assumed) that this was mostly about the big plot, but now it could easily be a clue towards Travelers, perhaps?

Also, he's read the Will of Questing Country at least once since, so what might he have discovered from subsequent readings?

It certainly may have been a hint about Travelers!

-in subsequent readings, Questing Country's Will has mostly read like a starlit sky on a warm summer night, every star looking enticing and full of possibility, or another metaphor that implies benevolence and possibility but no unified direction - everyone in QC can chase their own dreams!

-when Fintan went into Retrograde, Questing Country's Will became as garbled and indecipherable as the Spirit Companions themselves.
