Spirit animal summery 1

Today I read another two chapters of the book, “Spirit Animals: Tales of the Fallen Beasts”. So far we’ve covered Halawar who is one of the three Great Beasts that tried to take over the world. He worked with “Gerathon the Serpent” and “Kovo the Ape”. Together, they were confronted by four of the other Great Beasts, “Uraza, Jhi, Briggan, Essix”. Now, these 7 beasts and the rest are all popping up around the world and are being turned into spirit animals. When I say spirit animals, I mean that now they are going to have a bond with the human that summons them. In this book, it recalls the tales of all the animals and there human partners. How they first meet and the backstories of the humans. The story of what happens further on is left to the actual series that the author created.

Now I want to talk about the next three beasts in this book, “Rumfuss”, is the name of the once Great Beast that was summoned and written about in the second chapter. However, the author decides to take a different approach and talk about the brother of the human who summoned Rumfuss. The kid is Devin and he was outcasted by his father for his side of the previous war did not win and because of this his father suffered lot’s of financial problems. The man increased the tax by a whole lot just so that he could keep his royal life in check. However, now the citizens are pissed and with Devin’s call they rebel against the selfish man. Devin is able to rescue his brother from Zerif (who is sided with Devin’s father), but was not able to retrieve his brother’s spirit animal. 

Before running away Devin tells his brother that they will find his spirit animal one way or another. Now onto the next chapter: Arax and Suka. There is a girl named, “Anuqi” who is part of the Ardu people. They live on the snow terrains of Eras and were very happy when Anuqi summoned, “Suka”. However, Anuqi’s mother was very greedy since they had very little money and his father couldn’t stop her. So when Zerif came to their house and offered to give a large bag of coins in exchange for Suka his mother said yes. And although, his father tried his best to fight off Zerif with two of his own friends it just didn’t work out. So Raisha (Zerif’s servant), smacked Suka the Polar Bear with a bottle of the parasite and it slithered inside the bear’s skin. This gave Zerif complete control over it and with another Great Beast at their side Zerif left alongside Raisha. 

After a week or so Anuqi couldn’t wait anymore. She saw Raisha hit Suka with the parasite but her parents didn’t believe her. They thought that Suka left on her own accord. So late at night Anuqi ran away and met with two people who promised they would do whatever it took to save Suka from Zerif and Raisha. They two people weren’t that much older than herself but looked pretty strong. They were called, “Talon” and “Grif”. “Grif” was the person that summoned “Arax the Ram”, (One of the other great Beasts) and he would do whatever it took to get his spirit animal back. Anuqi felt like she could trust these two but remembered to keep her guard at all times.
