    Thought of this while musing over the Ranger class. Possible basis for an epic Ranger bow or high end bows in general?

    Item: Lyonewood - Not what it seems at first. A very strong, yet flexible wood that is used in making the finest bows. A light brown wood with a hint of blue within the grain. The tree's limbs spread out near the top to form a covering canopy. The branches bending twords the ground under the weight of the leaves, but never seeming to break or splinter. The seed pods are a light blue near the base of the thin green leaves. The trees are uncommon, but a few have been found near The Wellpond. Never cut down a Lyonewood tree. Only prune a branch of the appropriate size for the item you plan to make.

    This may also give a reason for Woodworkers to venture into Wild's End.

    A fitting tribute to the maiden who bested Molsth.  Might I suggest that her namesake tree have an additional feature: when the wind is just right, the rustling of the leaves sounds like the softest laughter, barely noticeable, but enough to enrage The Silent Wraith.
