Fanwork Notes

This work was created during the 2025 Jubilee Amnesty for the Words of Wit and Wisdom Challenge, for which I managed a blackout on the bingo board.  As part of this, I learned several new words and have had to use a few words in older senses to make them work.  As such, a quick glossary:

warlock: in the original sense of "oath-breaker," not a sorcerer

wruxled: ppl. wruxeled, adorned, clad;

Firstly very well done with the prompts, some of which you very cleverly interpreted and inserted. And also thank you for a lovely story, I'm becoming fonder and fonder of Lendalwed the more I get to know them.
