Lilith sins?

Lilith sings Lilith speaks many a cross word Lilith has an anger like love like a procession of pillars of fire Lilith has the delight of a woman scorned he modeled me I was his clay thing into me he breathed life I became his golem I went forth and I destroyed havoc my middle name

I am the dybbuk of delight I slip into the souls <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">of those who need me

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">perhaps you breathed <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">just a little <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">too much life, a sniffle too long <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">but once tasting the air <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">I would not be still, not <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">be silent, not return <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">to my feet of clay

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">I will not gather dust <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">I do not cower beneath cobwebs <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">I do not fear the hot streets <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">I walk <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">in the middle <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">of the pavement

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">I do not hug the shade <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">of cowardly buildings <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">I do not stay in my ghetto <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">but I strut and stride <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">into the ghetto <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">of men <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">I interrupt <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">the invisible universal <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">which denies men their souls <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">and women their being

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">I do not creep

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">I do not crawl

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">I am proud

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">I have taken the cloth <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">from my mirror <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">of mourning

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">for your birthday <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">(if gods have birthdays) <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">I shall give you <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">a mirror

<u style="box-sizing:border-box;">Opinions Grace:  <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">She talks to me like I'm human, and over the age of ten. This makes her okay, for now. Hawksley:<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;"> Like most people, he treats me like I'm about eight, but I was older than that when we met and danced a long time ago. He belongs to my mom's world, and there's no place for me there. Jim:<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;"> He might be alright. Makes me think of a Robin Williams character, one of the slightly less manic and more kindly ones. Justin:<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;"> I have to give him credit for trying to get over the creep factor, and the instinct to treat me like a kid. Lena:<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;"> It feels like she doesn't do much, even when she's doing something. Weird. Mara:<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;"> Ehhhh. She's weird. Pan:<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;"> I'll find a way to send anyone who does him harm into the worst kind of afterlife. Beyond that, mind your own business. Patience:<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;"> I can hardly understand what she's saying most of the time, but she still seems pretty cool. I might actually like her. Serafine:<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;"> I DO NOT LIKE GREEN EGGS AND HAM, I DO NOT LIKE THEM SAM I AM (But if she started treating me like a fully grown human and stopped being all WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH PAN, she might be okay. She's interesting enough, anyway.) Sid:<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;"> She helps me commandeer and rearrange rooms when I need to, and I have a sneaking suspicion she knows more about me than she should. See what I said about Pan for the rest.

Mind 2 can also be used to locate people by their minds, and Life 1 can be used to scan for life force.

A mage can read a newspaper, and realise that the current conflicts on Balkan are linked to the disappearance of several prominent engineers in England, or that the fluctuations of the stock market have been strongly influenced by the person in the border of that picture. He might not know how or why, but he will see the links.

By singing it the mage can scare away most of the lesser unbeings.

Their secret was to first study the patient, and then almost instinctively know the right herbs or methods to heal the disease. They often wandered the countryside or parks, studying the plants (and animals) of the Mother, seeing which would work best for which disease.
