Random thought: In Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy, why does no one have a daemon that is something unwieldy like an elephant or even a horse or rhinoceros? I just imagine some tiny person with an elephant daemon, trying to walk into buildings and down alleyways WITH THIS HUGE ELEPHANT. And it is hilarious. OR, why don't they have daemons that are water animals? Like, what if somebody's daemon was a dolphin? Would that person always have to live on a boat? THESE QUESTIONS NEED ANSWERING.
