&¨¨&¨¨¨¨&¨ 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 &¨¨¨¨&¨&¨¨
¨¨¨&&&¨¨¨¨ young salix tree, and has 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. &¨¨¨¨¨&¨¨¨
