Crafting Hope - The Moonstone Necklace (Closed)

Casandra cackled at the request before repeating it back to the elf on the other side of the counter.

"Twenty belladonna plants, deary?" A wry smile adorned the pale woman's features. "And what are you to do with these, hm? You don't plan on fighting the deadly werebeasts of the forests, do you? Such a pretty face. You might get a scratch!"

"Ah.." Kiri's expression showed a hint of nervousness. "It's just.. A little something I'm working on." She offered the woman a small smile as her gaze shifted around, glancing to the strange nearby items on display. "So.. How much was it?"

After a short exchange, Kiri took the box of plants and quickly hurried out of the store. As the fresh air met her face, she shuddered. "Ugh. I'll never get used to that place."

Inside of the caravan, Kiri pulled her bag up into her lap and dug around for a moment. Trotting hooves echoed along the path as the day passed, yet her attention was focused only on the moonstone she had withdrawn from her belongings. "Such a simple thing", she thought.

As the caravan arrived within Greatgaunt, Kiri stepped off and gave a quick smile and wave to the driver. Coming to the leatherworking table within the marketplace, she'd set her things to the side and get busy with various tools. A couple of fine leather hides were put to the side, along with the box of belladonna and the small bag of moonstones.

Slowly and carefully, she worked. Carving strips of leather, trimming the edges, fastening moonstones and wrapping belladonna until she had finished with what materials she had available.

Kiri then took a step back and sighed with relief. "Finally. One more step." Gathering her things, she sat the newly crafted necklaces carefully within their own box, each wrapped in a simple cloth before making her way out of town and back to the caravan.
