Raven 153: The Word

Sometimes you need to stare at the finger for a while before your eye turns to where the finger is pointing.

Case

Stag Sensei invited Raven to speak to his students, and Porcupine went along as her attendant.
In their absence, Owl led the discussion but said very little.
Wolverine asked, "If truth is essentially wordless, why do we usually talk so much at these meetings?"
Woodpecker said, "Maybe we should listen to the silence between the words."
Hearing of this later, Porcupine said, "The word! The word!"
