"Brísingamen?" Dale asked as he held the necklace in his hands
It wasn't ostentatious, but it was intricately crafted from a golden-brown bronze, or so it seemed.
The necklace was stiff, almost like a choker with a small opening along its length.
Along its body, there were several designs depicting all kinds of animals, such as eagles, wolves, rats, and the like, a rather symbolic contrast.
There was an unimaginable beauty in its simplicity, despite there being no gems or glistering gold adorning it, each carving was smooth and lifelike despite not being faithful depictions of their real-life counterparts.
Oftentimes, beauty comes from the source, its original appearance, the unaltered designs of nature…
