The Last Green Hour
A seed-shaped casting of amber resin from beneath the Hollowing Oak — a Greenwake warden's final walk through the living wood, held in the one thing the wood had on hand to hold it, that quickens a carrier's own healing the way the wood quickened around her.
A Greenwake warden died alone under the Hollowing Oak, days from the nearest soul who'd have come to sit with her, and by the time anyone found her the wood itself had already wept a seed of amber resin into the wound in the bark beside her — a small, cold, growing thing sealing over a hurt that no one had properly closed. Because no one shut her eyes in time, something of her last hour clings to the seed the way the Unclosed cling to any ending left hanging. Carry it and your own hurts knit a little faster, the way moss closes over a wound in bark and the way the wood tried, too late, to close over her. The Rootbound consider selling it a small blasphemy. The Gaunt Ledger considers it inventory. Both are correct.
