Before fire learned to speak,
the Owl had already seen.
It did not chase.
It did not shine.
It waited—
until the world was quiet enough to reveal itself.
Among the people, it is said:
When the Owl looks your way,
don’t turn.
Don’t hide.
Just listen.
The Owl teaches:
That truth comes in silence.
That shadow holds meaning.
And that not all wisdom
wants to be loud.
