Dust, what is dust?

Not the stuff that accumulates in your bedroom corner, the magical dust in the air. Memories, thoughts, feelings, even knowledge all in a floating dust.

Or, according to Mrs. Coulter, page 282 “Dust is something bad, something wrong, something evil and wicked.”

I’ve been reading The Golden Compass by Philip Pullman, and I have finished it. In this book the main character is called Lyra and she has a dæmon named Pantamilion that often takes the form of an ermine or a mouse. Dæmons are physical animal forms representing our soul, and separation from them could be fatal. Dæmons can shape shift when you are a child but then settle permanently when you are an adult, because of dust. The two main adult characters, Lord Asriel and Mrs. Coulter, are both investigating about the nature of dust.

I believe my dæmon would be a greyish-brown gold coyote, because coyotes are social and can be fierce. What would yours be?

Hi, sorry, about not writing, I haven’t gotten a chance – I traveled to a small town called Caiquin, with my father and my computer was in the shop. But I have BIG news: I’ve been given a bunny and I called him Argentino. He’s REALLY CUTE! He’s kinda chubby and pretty healthy. Strangely enough, his favorite food is purple cabbage. I made a box into a nice house for Argentino, but he spends a lot of his time running around the house. It has a stick, and a nice grass bed, and a rock to sit on, or rather stand on, yes I mean stand. He enjoys exploring and biting us, actually nibbling. Here are some photos of stuff he does:
