She has parents and a sister
They live in Bassari Village in Senegal
Syra always looks sad
two sorcerers stole Syra and her sister's souls
Her mother travelled the world in search of a cure
Syra does not speak to people a lot
Although they think she is cured the villagers think otherwise
No one wants to marry Syra because of the sorcerrers
Syra will be soon asked to leave the village
She will not be able to live with her mother and hopes she can stay with her grandmother

I wonder if Syra has ever hurt herself intentionally with the knife
I wonder if they tried to use the amulet to cure Syra]]> 2020-03-26 19:30:02 UTC https://padlet.com/nhackett/izg1wluy0y7/wish/477241259 sherrisutton https://padlet.com/nhackett/izg1wluy0y7/wish/477250245 Again, just really good work here. I wonder what will happen to her if her Grandmother does not take her in. I wonder where her sister is living. I wonder if her mother gave her that amulet to remember her. Syra has always pulled at my heart...I think it her eyes and the fact that she has no hope, no dreams...she is just so broken. I think you have asked really great questions and have engaged with Syra with great care, respect, honor, and empathy. Great work Nadia!]]> 2020-03-26 19:36:11 UTC https://padlet.com/nhackett/izg1wluy0y7/wish/477250245
