Candle run? *eyebrow wiggles*

I discovered fire and I regret it. 8 frames of misery. especially since they all had to be off by one for each flame or they would have all moved in sync and you can't have that!

I still think it's weird that Arafellin, who live in the Borderlands, wear bells in their hair. How are you going to avoid trollocs if you're jingling down the road?

Going a LITTLE insane about Arafellin hair bells right now, because outside of a Southlander context in combat, they’re Borderlanders, they fight the Dark One, the bells are SUPPOSED to make a sound while they’re fighting, and would effectively scare off the ravens and rats that act as the Dark One’s eyes and his spies. Wearing something in combat, against the Shadow and otherwise, that would ‘scare off the eyes of the Lord of the Grave’ when they bring death to another, acting like a protective “ward” in a sense in battle. Is any of this explicitly said in the books? Not really, but it’s my interpretation.
