The Sunspire I will never leave my bedroom

In a way chewing antlers to canids was equivalent of smoking cigarettes to humans. Both activities helped to relax, helped to collect thoughts (some people claim that nicotine does) and contained health hazards. Antlers could chip and break teeth, life-long smoking habit could lead to emphysema or lung cancer.

Anyway - metaphor aside - Wraen watched Rannoch's son work on the antler and did not hesitate to answer his question: "Down in the plains. There are a lot of meadows there, where deer love to graze and they often pass through there as well. When you are older, we can go down there and I can show you."
