Happy late Christmas!
For Cimorene, there are two pie pans shaped from clay and glazed blue and green respectively and fired; two cake pans made of light metal; a wrought iron poker shaped like a long thin curling dragon; and a set of wrought iron pins and clips for her hair, also shaped like dragons, with blue stone eyes.
For Heliabel, a woven market basket filled with a carafe of soup and a few sharp hunting and gathering knives in well-made leather sheaths.
For Galahad, it's a carved wooden box full of carved wooden animals, mostly ones they saw while questing or journeying together--the deer that used to come to them, the kingfisher over the river, the unicorn for Queen Guenever, the raccoons that sat in Heli's lap one morning, their two horses, and Percy's lion.
For Haynes, thick warm winter gloves.
For Dinadan, an amp a thumb harp and a concoction from Clarissant for preventing sore throat.
For Lamorak, a thick new winter cloak in deep green, with a wrought cloakpin the shape of the Welsh word for brave.
For Mordred, a new pair of boots, and a carved hedgehog with bristling spines.
For Gawain, gloves. Also earmuffs and baking pans (Gawain is easy!).
Elaine gets a bracelet made out of a wooden ring of the kind that can be carefully slipped over the wrist, carved with flowers.
Cywyllog also gets a bracelet, but with Welsh words intimating friendship and loyalty.
For Gaheris it's candied walnuts and likewise for Gareth; Agravain gets leather gloves lined with fleece, which are warm and useful but also would be splendid if Agravain happened to have any opportunity to go hawking; this is mainly because giving him a knife seemed like a bad idea.
Morvydd get some of their dried herbs and a wooden Chinese puzzle.
For Lynette, a very shiny hammer.
Various other people for whom there should be gifts but whom the typist cannot remember due to a surfeit of driving (twelve hours!) should comment and receive appropriate items. ♥
