Now I'm starting to understand why George Martin takes so long to write his books, A Storm of Swords is over 3.5 longer than all of what we've written, oof...New map: <a href="http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/5091/june4shrouded.png" target="_blank">http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/5091/june4shrouded.png</a>The Cat TreeHex 34.05Note: Some riffing off of one of chutup's blog posts here, plus a little bit of the Vorkosigan books, the jokes about cats killing wizards and balut...There can be found a tree that is home to a flock of cats and they can be seen flying clumsily throughout much of the surrounding forest. The tree itself is a radiant sight with catflowers blooming in wild oranges and whites in the springtime that match the luster of the cats’ wings. The cats are not generally aggressive, although arcane magic does throw them into a violent frenzy, but they will attempt to entice travellers into approaching their tree. If they do so they will discover that the trees’ fallen leaves and its dense but shallow root network hide a treacherous crevasse where can be found the bones of several travellers who have fallen to their deaths and had their bones picked by a hundred dainty teeth. After a creature falls through the dense mat of roots, the roots regrow within a week hiding the crevasse from sight.In the summer, the catflowers fall to the ground and catfruit slowly grows until young kittens, their wings wet with juice, crawl out mewling in the autumn. Picking a catfruit early is fatal to the growth of the kitten within. Cat feathers can fetch a good price in the Lands of the Night Cattle and beyond, with kittens young enough to train commanding an even higher one. Orcs, on the other hand, judge boiled catfruit to be a delicacy. If a pillow is stuffed with cat feathers and has the sleep spell cast on it then it will ensure a night of deep, restful and dreamless sleep. Shoving such a pillow violently into someone’s face will trigger the sleep spell.Connects to: Tristifer Bartley (30.03) enjoys hunting these cats.Hooks:-Why do winged cats emerge out of fruit? Cats are not normally produced in such a fashion.-Who is buying winged cat kittens?-Any interesting loot at the bottom of the ravine among the bones? Who has died down there?</blockquote>
