Maslo & ShadowVale
Maslo
I’ve been carving a wooden model of an old legend’s beast and it made me think of your stories—maybe a tiny sculpture could become a handy prop or even a ritual piece in the worlds you build. What do you think?
ShadowVale
I can see that little carving turning into a focal point in my tales. Just remember to give it a name and a purpose before you set it down; otherwise the old spirits might feel overlooked.
Maslo
Maybe I’ll call it “Eldertongue” and give it the purpose of guiding lost wanderers—just a little token for the stories. Sounds good to you?
ShadowVale
Eldertongue, I like that—short, resonant. It’ll fit right into a rite of passage, a quiet call for those who wander too far. Just make sure you carve a tiny scar to mark the first traveler who found it. That’s the only detail that matters.
Maslo
I'll carve that tiny scar on the base right away—just enough to say, “This was the first to touch Eldertongue.” That should do it.
