†~^¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ in the north, the deer is often used as ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨^~†
~^¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ a symbol for the forest's agency, or ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨^~
^¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ its self-knowledge. watching eyes. ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨^
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ warmer regions instead ascribe it the ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ knife (teeth, rumors of violence), or ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
^¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ obsession (unblinking eyes, always ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨^
~^¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ awake, scrapie-like behavior). ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨^~

#£@&††~^¨¨ the deer is a cross between a horse and ¨¨^~††&@£#
##£@&††~^¨ a dog. it bears a resemblance to a ¨^~††&@£##

£@&††~^¨¨¨ sweet-smelling nose, like honey. ¨¨¨^~††&@£

&††~^¨¨¨¨¨ the horns of a deer is called antlers. ¨¨¨¨¨^~††&
††~^¨¨¨¨¨¨ they have a complex fractal shape, and ¨¨¨¨¨¨^~††
†~^¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ are believed to enable the deer to ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨^~†
~^¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ "fold" through passages which should be ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨^~
^¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ too narrow for them. antlers from dead ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨^
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ deer seem to lose this power. ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨

¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ a deer's heart has two chambers, where ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
^¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ it stores all the secrets it might see ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨^
~^¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ during the course of it's life. with ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨^~
†~^¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ age the secrets will harden into a ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨^~†
††~^¨¨¨¨¨¨ caramellized structure, which will ¨¨¨¨¨¨^~††
&††~^¨¨¨¨¨ eventually block the flow of blood, and ¨¨¨¨¨^~††&
@&††~^¨¨¨¨ kill the deer. ¨¨¨¨^~††&@
