Creatures · first: BE E1

Stoats

Aabria describes a stoat as a small, long, weasel-like creature from the Mustelid family who calls weasels, otters, badgers and wolverines their cousins. BE E1·00:02:50 Four dozen of them live in the Red Warren. BE E1·00:02:50 Lila has milk teeth, which Aabria says stoats have. BE E1·00:06:38 Aabria says stoats do not live a very long time, and Ava says everything starts going at four years old. BE E1·00:45:24 BE E1·01:11:35

Aabria says stoats that don't make their own burrows find power and resources and take them. BE E3·00:06:39 Stoats can choose when to gestate, a thing called embryonic diapause. BE E3·00:17:55 Ava says curiosity is not very stoat-like. BE E3·01:42:38 At Last Bast the stoats stand and walk upright on two feet. BE E5·00:17:43 BE E4·01:08:03 Talia says the average lifespan of stoats is around six winters, and that the First Stoats' closeness to the Light has let them live for twenty. BE E5·00:32:06 Ava takes it to mean she could live another fifteen winters. BE E5·00:33:10 Thorn explains that stoats mark prey to follow it. BE E6·01:19:35

Aabria says stoats are one of the most invasive species. BE E7·00:00:56 The First Stoats stand twice the height of the others. BE E7·00:19:20 Tula says stoats walk on two feet like the monsters they seek to save them from. BE E8·00:32:26 Tula works out, with Quentin, that the stoats speak Human. BE E9·00:13:17 Aabria says Ava is about eight inches tall. BE E9·01:23:09 The human woman hears Thorn and Viola and says "What are you, weasels talking?" BE E9·01:39:57 Thorn tells her "We're not weasels, thank you." BE E9·01:42:36

Dr. Steel says that if the humans knew the stoats were thousands of sentient, sapient creatures, they would be bound by law to negotiate. BE E10·00:20:09 Thorn's speech is broadcast to the world, and Aabria says no one can deny that the Stoats of Last Bast are sentient. BE E10·01:37:07
