O.K. - now what about this one:

If you summon a nature spirit and make it a great form it may leave
it's domain, right ? So what if you make a little astral trip to the
other side of the world (passing the timezones and of course dawn or
sunset) - would the spirit pass out ??? Sounds bad, so I would think
the spirit passes out as soon as there is dawn/sunset where he was
SUMMONED (spirits have some kind of link to the place where they were
summoned - so this sounds practical). So what about just going to the
north pole, summoning a nature spirit, making it a great form and then
taking it with you wherever you want to go. That spirit would last up
to 6 months then - isn't that cool ? *grin*

Does anyone know how the days exactly go there ? I think there is some
time in between the "long summer day" and the "long winter day" where
they have change of day and night together with the rest of the world.

Bye...
Georg
