Spirit Walker

Alright guys, we can all agree that this is the best of them. Even the wiki background was based on this. (JUNE 21 BABY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TORAK)

**Spirit Walker, Summer of ‘68** is the second entry in the *Chronicles of Ancient Dankness,* published in 2005.

## Back cover

Sure to make a splash! Torak and his new pals are back in the greatest adventure that has heavily copy-pasted plot from the original and a terribly-written ending that the invisible screen has ever seen! A psychopathic skin sap epidemic has literally driven all of Norway insane, and we know only one scrawny twelve-year-old who could figure it out. This time, Torak, Renn, Wolf and three raggedy beach bums search an exotic island to cure the world of **THE FISH**, two little stinkers and YOU’LL NEVER EXPECT THE REAL CULPRIT!!! Bonus: get your authentic Seal Clan Dinner at 1-800-WOL-FBROTHER for just $2.99! ©Orion Publishers, Michelle Paver, 2005.

## Introduced characters

**That one Boar dude** was infected with the disease and tried to kill a fully-grown auroch cow with calves, even after Torak’s warning

**That one boar** might count as a character. This boar was Torak’s only companion in his initial journey through the forest, and it went insane after being arrow’d by a Tokoroth known as The Follower. The boar then tried to kill Torak, who climbed up a skinny little tree, andmanaged to pull his quiver off the ground with his ax, managing to kill the boar with a well-aimed shot to the shoulder.

**Thull** is Oslak the big dude’s brother.

**Dari** is Thull’s son, five “summers” old (born in 3973 BC, making him now 5996 years old.)

**Poi** never really liked Torak, and was the same age as him. Kind of a jackass but too irrelevant to really tell.

**Sialot** is the same as above.

**Bera**? I don’t know about her and I don’t care either, all I know is that she died of the disease.

**Kyo** is a Sea-Eagle Clan man whom Renn met on the beach during her search for Torak.

**Tiu** is another Sea-Eagle guy who was with Kyo. Why does the clan with a two-word name get all the shortest names?

**Asrif** is believed to have some sweet ass-riffs, but would rather not be asked about fart music (correction: his fart music; Asrif would willingly talk about anyone else’s ass riffs.) He is the shortest and giggliest of Torak’s captors, collectively known as the Seal trio.

**Detlan** is the tallest, oldest and buffest of the seal trio, but ended up fracturing his thigh.

**Bale** was the closest of the three to Torak, and taught him the seal clan’s ways, including how to paddle the clan’s “skinboats”, as well as helping him fight Tenris. Bale’s brother died to the disease two years before it spread to the mainland.

**Tenris**, (the crippled wanderer from Wolf Brither) not to be confused with Tennis, Tetris, Tetanus, Testes, Tenrecs, or otherwise, is Torak’s uncle and the chubby old Seal Mage. He initially served as a new mentor for Torak, who was unaware that Tenris was a member of the Soul-Eaters and started the disease. Tenris taught Torak about his “spirit walking” power, while Torak was unaware that Tenris was planning to eat his heart so that he could “spirit walk” himself. Instructing Torak, and the seal trio to climb a sea stack and get a Selik root (the fake cure), knowing injuries would ensue… uh… screwed that up.

**Islinn** is the leader of Seal Clan. Nuff said.
