The Resource
Weirwater is named for the forests that dot this landscape and the rich supplies of weirwood they produce. Legend claims that the first weavers made a pact with the Eternals to make the land fertile, but that the magic has slowly dwindled with time.
According to stories handed down through generations of workers, some unknown force decorates trees within a circle with wild flowers, ribbons, and small knicknacks made with twine and sticks. Whenever such trees are found, workers will take undue care removing it all, and pack all of the decorations in a box made of some of the best weirwood harvested that season. The workers will then fell the weirwood trees, knowing that it will be the best wood of the seasons harvest. The box of decorations will be left where the circle stood, for the mysterious owner to collect. By the next season, the box will be gone, and a new circle will be decorated.
Every so often, according to the same stories, a worker will take some element of the decorations. These stories never end well, as the worker is found as a decoration on one of the trees; usually they are packed in a different box...
