    On the subject of ambivalent; Road Kamelot, if she liked you or found you to be amusing she would play with you like a kitten plays with her tasty little meal. On the other hand if she didn't like you or found you to be annoying she would torture you slowly. Such a sweet ancient soul. 🧬

    Loki. He can be completely ambivalent and neutral. Your friend one minute and your nemesis the next. 🧬

  5. From the web we learn: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Though the album cover features a picture of a ritual mask from Papa New Guinea, and the album contains Gerrard’s playing of the yangqin (a Chinese hammered dulcimer), the band’s core sound stuck to the traditional setup of bass, guitar, drums, and vocals within songs of three to four minutes in length. Bringing into cellos, trombones, and violins, Spleen and Ideal (1985) documents the band moving into more of a neoclassical and exploratory sound. It's at this time when Gerrard would break from English, or any other known language, and instead sing in indecipherable sounds of emotion like an ancient oracle. While references to Baudelaire and a painting by Carlos Schwabe continue to make clear that Dead Can Dance does not worry about being instantly accessible. Later the adding trumpet, tuba, and oboe, Dead Can Dance moved further into classical with 1987’s Within the Realm of a Dying Sun. While after the compilation of 1991’s A Passage in Time, they ditched the session musicians while adding bongos, sitars, and tabla, and delved further into ethnic music via 18th-century traditional Irish ballads and expressions of Australian spirit dances with Into the Labyrinth (1993). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ So the band has used a wide range of instruments to accompany their vocals. While the actual vocals have changed from recognisable languages to emotive sound. Wikipedia informs us that the band is still active (1981–1998, 2005, 2011–present). Which means there's still plenty of creativity to be enjoyed for some time. 🧬

    So sorry for your loss. In the end what was wrong with Stella?
  9. You said she got her leg stuck in a hole next to a wall; maybe a spider bit her leg? You could carefully look at the hole and see if there are any spiders. Also see if you can identify them. This will hep the vet know what antivenom might be needed. 🧬
