This elaborate belt has been fashioned from a length of supple leather painted
over with several thin, even coats of a dark silver shade. Overlaid with fragile
lace of a lighter silver hue, this wintry accessory clearly tends towards the
aesthetic rather than the practical. Crocheted into a captivating flurry of
butterfly wing patterns gradually melding into bursts of wildflower designs, the
thin lace is intricate and ornate. A finely-wrought silver buckle, gleaming as
though rimed with a translucent layer of white ice, is designed to fasten the
belt firmly around the waist. Delicately blown and molded into the shapes of
minute spheres and icicles, a myriad of beads of transparent glass and pale
silver have been meticulously sewn into the lace, glinting in any light and
shaking with even the slightest movement.

You headbutt Mena, following traditional Xiur greeting.
The fat woodling and the drunk square off, running at each other and slamming their heads together. A resounding wooden THUNK! reverberates around the square as the two woodlings stumble about in daze for a few moments.
The love-sick woodling remains oblivious to his brothers as he gazes up at his object of affection. The others take the opportunity and rush him, four woodling heads colliding against his with a crash. Flakes of bark, fragments of wood and soil fly into the air upon the impact.
Ahre rolls her eyes.
The bloody woodling peers out from his hiding place to mock them, but the others are still reeling from the blows. The drunk hiccups once and his bleary eyes clear, as he seems to sober up.

Calmly turning towards Olanre, you bring your clasped hands to your forehead as you bow before her, slowly, at the waist.
Lady Mena Greyjoy says, "Hmm, what kind of woodling would be Ahkan?"
You say to Ahre "Her name was Paesa. We pretty much raised Paesa from a little glow-bug to a really mischievous glow bug."
You say, "The Prophet lured Paesa to our altar, and we sacrificed our little glow bug and let her be consumed by the Leechwood. We pretty much infused the Leechwood with the power left by the death of the gods."

You whisper to Ahre, "They're probably insulted."
Ahre whispers to you, "I do not think I like her."
You whisper to Ahre, "She's pretty unsettling. You'll get used to her. You need to respect her...or, she can ruin your life in really annoying ways, a.k.a..horrible."
The roots of the tree start to pulse with a steady rhythm, the beat akin to that of a heart. The soil greedily drinks the blood that suffuses the great trunk with obvious power.
You say, "She told me that one of the woodlings would have a gift for me, but I haven't seen it. I'm not sure if they're slacking, or if She is being passive-aggressive again."
The woodlings grumble and snort, none daring to look Lionas in the face except for the fat woodling, who just adopts a stupid expression and wanders off.
The fat woodling breathes a sigh of relief, and congratulates himself on playing it cool in front of Lionas.
You quickly toss a mortal heart still dripping blood to a fat woodling, who catches it nimbly.
You have emoted: As Lionas decapitates the corpse, he guides the spilt blood to the roots of the Leechwood.
The roots of the tree start to pulse with a steady rhythm, the beat akin to that of a heart. The soil greedily drinks the blood that suffuses the great trunk with obvious power.
