Spirit Wolf[]
Fionula is a snowy owl and one of Faolan's three gyre souls along with Eo and Fengo. Faolan saw her in a vision talking to Brunwella. Brunwella referred to her as "Fee" and talked about her position as singer. Brunwella asked the owl about her travelling. The topic of wolves came up, and Fionula defended their strange ways from Brunwella. Brunwella asks how she knew those things, she replies that she just doesn't know.
