Prompt: Symbol

Seneca looked over the shoulder of her young apprentice. Callista was using some scrap metal to practice etching designs. A hobby Seneca had never pursued herself.

Callista had definite preferences in her designs. They seemed rather Nornish to Seneca. A series of interlaced knots with no beginning or end. The one she was working on at the moment was almost a basket weave, with gentle loops connecting the strands seamlessly together.

When she asked about them, Callista admitted they were inspired by Norn tattoos.
What she loved about them was the symbolism she found in them. Their endless flow.
