Sky

Sky is an Aspect of height and horizons. It gathers on hilltops and church towers, on castle walls, in the cold air above marsh and motorway. Beasts of the Sky are restless things. They follow flight paths and weather fronts, cling to weathervanes and telephone wires, and pay close attention to every change in the light.

Norwich feels this Aspect strongly. The old city climbs around its castle mound and cathedral spire, and Guild records are full of sightings where Beasts seem to track the line of the river in the air rather than on the ground. Out across East Anglia, Sky settles over airfields, cliff edges, causeways and lonely radio masts. Wherever there is a clear view to the horizon, a Beast of the Sky may already be watching.

Hunters argue constantly about where Sky ends and Night begins. A creature that only appears under a clear full moon might be logged as Sky in one ledger and Night in another. There are Beasts that seem to belong to both Aspects at once, moving by starlight yet always keeping to the highest ridges and rooftops. Storm-driven Beasts complicate things further, blurring Sky with Season as they chase particular winds.

Here we have gathered those Beasts most often witnessed above the tree line, on high walks and rooftops, or circling routes that never quite touch the ground. They remind us that the hunt does not only follow footpaths but also the empty air above them.
