I wanted to turn away from traditional worth with this Inktober's Expensive prompt. Inspired by James Gifford's one D&D item a day, I drew a Hunger of Hadar ring! Can't deny that Travis Willingham from Critical Role is at fault for it mostly. Below is the transcription of the poem, featuring my views on fox hunting and the fur trade:
the matted coat of dawn
and fire, pulled from their
unwilling flesh, now weeping
blood. how inexpensive can
a life be, for their fur
to be deemed simply marketable
or disposable--
let their chatter and screams
deafen you in your nightmares,
their tails wrapped around
your neck, fangs delighting
on your eyes.
