Behind the Scenes

Drusilla's Appearance

• Short and wiry, the woman is clearly advanced in years, but moves with a confidence and agility that belie her apparent age. Her crinkly, greying hair is pulled back in a tight bun, though a few wisps have escaped to frame her square-jawed face in a pale grey halo. Her hands are particularly remarkable, ever in motion and covered in tough, nut-brown skin that seems nearly as leathery as the countless hides they have tanned.

Idle Scripts

• The old woman uses a long stick to prod at some oddly colored hides soaking in one of the smaller vats in the corner.

• Drusilla sings a snatch of an old folk song as she busies herself among the drying leathers, her voice surprisingly clear and resonant for one so old.

• Peering into one of the deep vats, Drusilla squints and mutters something to herself. She removes a metal pail from a nearby shelf and pours a generous dollop of magenta liquid into the vat.
