Stoic Portrayal

To defeat a spirit and start it running you must find a pebble and close it in your hand. Now squeeze tight and imagine your spirit's worldly countenance. When you open your fist, you will have an earthly proxy. Throw it on edge across the surface of a calm lake. It will skip a certain number of times. Count the skips and by that number multiply the number of half moons in a season. The number you arrive at will assist you in your task, for that number is how many moons the spirit will be on the run. In the event of of a single or double skip, bust up camp and head for the hills.
