Aveefa is a dust spinner of the Lower City of Corus.Even in long summers without any air they can spin. Most people avoid the spinners as they are afraid of them and think of them as bad spirits. So they enjoy getting presents of dirt from other places and might even go mad from too much screaming and pained voices.
Beka also learned that the dust spinners can have basic feelings. Beka has discovered that she can help the spinners to live longer with her magic. There are those who never seem to go away and those who exist only for a short period of time. The life span of a dust spinner isn't fixed. The spinners also like to be presented with dirt from other places as they are stationary and this gives them something new. They even tell her their names and they are glad when she steps into them and takes the burden of the conversations they have gathered away. The dust spinners seem to have a simple form of consciousness as they can communicate with those possessing the right form of magic like Rebakah Cooper. Interestingly enough, they never gather natural sounds such as bird and dog noises and horses hooves.
Dust spinners collect small breezes along with sounds of conversations and talk. They appear as small whirlwinds that spin continuously in place. Dust spinners are beings of air and spirit in the world of Tortall.
