Dear Diary,
I have a lot of news today. Da is going on another long trip, so Ma is upset with him again. I got my school report, and I did quite well, except for Seithr, for obvious reasons, so Ma said I could start teaching Safire. If I can get her to come to me when I call, I can take her to school. Even lindoorms can do that, and Fire Lizards are supposed to be smarter.
I tried taking her out the crate again tonight, but the problem was getting her off of me. She was either very clingy, or trying to go into the fire.
At one point she got stuck in my hair, and scratched my ear a little bit, but it's not too bad. Da found it very funny.
I don't think she recognizes her name yet, but Da says it just takes time.

I am mostly making this all up, so please do not expect any historical accuracy regarding Vikings, but Seiðr is a thing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sei%C3%B0r
