Cloak of Many Feathers

The Cloaks of Many Feathers are assembled over several generations. In the same way that some orlan followers of Hylea are known to devour birds to steal their songs, the members of the orlan clans near Maiden Falls have developed a coming-of-age ritual for young hunters.

To prove his or her prowess, each young hunter was tasked with tracking one of the great eagles of the nearby mountains and retrieving a feather. The collected feathers were woven into a cloak, which would either be bestowed on the most skilled hunter in the tribe or, on rare occasions, given to honored allies.

A few silver pinions are scattered among the red, black, and brown feathers of the cloak. The overall pattern brings to mind autumn foliage. It feels light on your shoulders.
