Most faces I had not seen in years, but I knew them by the tree insignias sewn into their tunics and gowns. Spindle, Hawthorn, Juniper, Beech, Gorse, Ash, and so on. It was the history of our kingdom—an ancient homage to the Spirit of the Wood—to take the name of the trees.
Kind of ironic considering how no one takes homage toward the Wood Spirit anymore bc of the mist and plague like infections that come from it
