Honestly Altan won't be interested, the one thing she thrives to keep is her impartiality and even if she doesn't understand the customs fully she can tell if something is important, especially if it's another nomadic tribe's traditions. ^ ^
It's kind of like if she participates in another tribe's rituals it's a betrayal of her own identity.
All goods then. Just gunna go with Dae not wiping blood on Atlan then out of respect for her tribal obligations then
Märchen would accept! Be weirded out by the blood but he'd keep it on him until he can wash it off. But if he found out that this is using her magic to like, protect everyone, he'd want to continue wearing it because he's afraid that if he washes it off then the magic will go away. ...Idk if it will honestly, Boo? Does it?
BOOOOOOM!!^^!! L❤❤❤❤VES!! Thanks ya! K but like the way I'm thinking it works is like with 'willingness' or 'permission' from the recipient. The blood can be washed away no prob! But like the 'stain' remains and so does the spell... As long as Dae does a small dance or chant each morning for them.
And that is how Dae will be able to track her budss. Then thinking that more cool stuff happens over time with being linked and tuned-in spiritually. Like maybe Dae would able to shoot arrows into darkness or combat without hitting her buds. Or like have little animals like crows or bunnies send messages and recognize 'stained' Auras as friendlies^^ Things like that ;DDD
