Bat

Narahdan the Bat wanted honey. He watched until he saw a Wurranunnah the Bee alight. He caught it, stuck a white feather between its hind legs, let it go and followed it. He knew he could see the white feather, and so follow the bee to its nest. He ordered his two wives, of the Bilber tribe, to follow him with wirrees to carry home the honey in. Night came on and Wurranunnah the bee had not reached home. Narahdarn caught him, imprisoned him under bark, and kept him safely there until next morning. When it was light enough to see, Narahdarn let the bee go again, and followed him to his nest, in a gunnyanny tree. Marking the tree with his comebo that he might know it again, he returned to hurry on his wives who were some way behind. He wanted them to come on, climb the tree, and chop out the honey. When they reached the marked tree one of the women climbed up. She called out to Narahdarn that the honey was in a split in the tree. He called back to her to put her hand in and get it out.
- Aboriginal folktale
Bat's children, the Camazotz were nearly driven extinct during the War of Rage and the Shadow Lord invasion of Central America. However, within the Alcheringa such creatures may still exist. If so, their emnity for the Garou must run deep. Yet Bat, a spirit of darkness and death, befriended certain Garou back in the colonial days and pacts made then remain intact. Bat is not well-trusted by the Australian Concordiat, especially since she seems just as willing to accept Black Spiral Dancers as her Chosen. Packs are advised not to seek out Bat's patronage in most septs within the Eastern Jibayne Council though those to the west are more tolerant (or influenced by darker forces).
