Dæmon Cages
From His Dark Materials Wiki
The Dæmon Cages are a series of glass cases located inside of a shed ouside the Experimental Station at Bolvangar. After intercision was carried out on a captive child, the severed dæmon was placed in a cage in the shed, presumably for further observation. During the fire drill at the Station, Lyra, Roger, and Serafina Pekkala's dæmon, Kaisa, released all the mutulated dæmons. Kaisa then led them away to find their humans.
| "In a series of glass cases on shelves around the walls were all the dæmon of the severed children: ghostlike forms of cats, or birds, or rats, or other creatures, each bewildered and frightened and pale as smoke." | |||
