Lore
"Old Goir Na H'al was once a drunkard man. He talked to the trees, and the birds, and the beast. It is said that he once asked the loyal hound, 'Hound, why is it that I feel so empty and forelorn that I must act the fool?' The hound shook his head and said 'I do not know these things, go ask the snake who knows the secrets of the world'. So he did. Goir Na H'al asked the snake, and the snake replied 'I know your sorrow, goir, but not the cause. Go ask the owl who sees all". Goir Na H'al went far to see this owl. He asked the owl ' Why do I feel sorrow, Owl?" The Owl turned to a beautiful woman and spoke to him without words. "Goir, you were born a elf, but meant to be born a boar for you are stubborn and often lay in the mud' With a twist of her slender hand, the Owl turned Goir into a boar. 'Now you will go and lay in the mud and be stubborn, Boar, for that is your true nature'"

-An old Elven Story. The Owl is speculated to represent Bahluhm who teaches that mortals must be true to what they are. The houd represents the folly of mortals looking for an answer without earning it. The snake is said to be mortals abiliy to see a problem, but not know the aswer.
