Dungeons & Dormice: The Cleric
Added 2020-04-09 06:37:19 +0000 UTC"Beware the masked swamp owl!" Dormouse parents tell their children. "If she catches you, she eats you whole and spits out your bare white bones, which will forever haunt the marshlands!"
Indeed, infestations of undead are most often found near the nests of the short-eared owl, terrorising the local dormouse dwellings. This was the main reason why the Order of the Sacred Hazelnut came into being, whose clerics use the benign powers granted by the Deity to turn the undead, and grant them rest.
(The short-eared owl indeed does not digest bones as much as other owls do, which is why their prey's skeletons are often found eerily intact in their pellets. Yes, I am researching owl digestion now.)

This is so exciting!

2020-04-09 06:54:40 +0000 UTCThis will make a lovely set of prints, once you have them all! Will you be making a group-shot "dungeon party" picture, as well?
