The Carry on the other hand can embody the healer who grounds our energy and gets rid of illness or can represent the internal part folks that has beliefs. In one fable, Sonja provides Bear to life like a mythical creature singing songs to generate the light, reflecting the powerful lesson that by using our voice and speaking the reality we can hold darkness away. Throughout all the stories, Raven and Carry show us to be responsible for our actions and develop religious accountability.
