Show

This deep black cloak has had great care taken in maintaining its perfection. Made from a single piece of suede, it is worn artfully draped around the upper body with an extra wrap about the neck to secure it. There are slits surrounded with sleek sable fur in the sides for the arms. The cloak has also been trimmed all around with a thin strip of sable. On the back, in black-on-black thread is an embroidery depicting a halfling on a wild pony.

Loresong

The night was moonless and dark As the halfling rode on his way He was hurrying home as quickly as he could To the house near the bay."

His horse was running through the woods When in front of the horse an orc jumped The horse startled and off the back flew The halfling who landed with a thump.

The halfling jumped up as his sword he drew He ran to the orc and cried with a wail "You're in for it now, you little orc! For all over the forest did my tarts sail!"

Without hesitation the halfling ran to the orc And in one fell blow took the orcish bloke He looked around the forest floor and found All the lost tarts, putting them in his cloak.
