Asha

"You told Asha to spend a few hours stalking something of interest and report back without getting caught. Taking your orders too literally, she returned a few hours later to report on a cute bee's movements among flowers."

"Running towards you, Asha greets you from afar and follows you for the next hour to learn from the best."

When the shamans arrived in November, they took a strong interest in Asha. Some suspected that her two tails were a symptom of a curse put upon Hehet and his pride by angry spirits, so they attempted to persuade the skeptical king to seek guidance from Shaman Aker on how to pacify their ancestors. When one implied that the likely only way to purge the curse would be to kill Asha, Hehet became enraged, snarling at the visiting shamans to leave his territory.

Hearing of Asha and her two tails, Sangoma Tefnut visited Hehet's pride. Despite the damage done to his trust by the other shamans, Sangoma Tefnut was able to soothe him enough to visit with Asha herself. Her advice on what to do was starkly different from the others'. Asha was not cursed, she was blessed, and if Hehet continued to love and protect her, their ancestors would recognize him as a kind and good king. ///
