"It is the dark of night. Prussian blue skies shelter the travelers. Dark forest green undertones and pale white stars shine over the evergreen landscape of pine and fir. The travelers are by nature very peaceful - but will defend themselves and do harm if provoked. They wear sunlit yellow straw hats to protect their pale, corpse-like skin from the daylight and sometimes hold whitish-blue birds, talismans/familiars, of unknown origins." - Lara Stokes
