Bells of the Mother of the Flock

This shoulder-high staff is cut from pale mountain-ash and wrapped in fine silver wire that forms looping shepherd's knots. Its head is crowned with a serene ivory effigy of Yngya, the Mother of the Flock, shown as a lambfolk matriarch with eight short horns, a mountain-shaped crown, and six calm pearl eyes. Tiny bronze bells hang from the crown and from three lower rings along the shaft, chiming in soft, clear tones whenever the staff is moved or divine magic is channeled through it. The wood is cold to the touch, as though it has been left standing in fresh snowfall, and a faint scent of clean wool and pine follows it wherever it goes.
