    Lightning is one of those things that makes it easy to see why people invented Gods to explain the phenomena.

        Hard to know.

        Could go either way.

        I can certainly imagine people avoiding it because of implied danger.

        … but I can also imagine people evaluating it and concluding that “they don’t look sick, and they taste fine”.

        I guess the decision depends on how hungry you are.

        I think it’s important to point out that anyone making this decision was probably using the herd as a primary source of food…it’s pretty clearly a sign that you should hit the road.

      The one that seals the elder Gods into a soul cage for 1000 years.

      Sadly, the humans will never understand the necessity and impact of the caribou’s sacrifice.
