Sure, they can - but cats are a given example not
having any.

Very true; but given we already have a Domain
populated by spiders, and other references to animals
dreaming..

Sure. That will have to be explored in the Jordi write
up, as there's a series of levels to consider:
Beings who can learn a skill;
Beings you can use a skill granting Talisman;
Beings who can use a Talisman with the 'usable by
being  that couldn't normally' Feature;
Beings who can't even do that.

[nods] - and  having a 'shared' Corporeal Force gets
around some problems (while creating others).

In the meantime -
Kyrios can possess swarms of insects;
a Kyrio's host goes to The Marches;
ergo, swarms of ordinary insects go there.

 Given they have Domains, probably to the appropriate
Domain. And if insects, then surely higher lifeforms.
True?

Cheers, James.
