Mother Spindle

DEFEATED

matron of the silk woods

0 / 600,000 HP (0.0%)

October 14 to October 19 · Eastern

Who is this?

West of the camp the trees have gone white. Not frost. Silk, laid down in sheets between the trunks over a single fortnight, thick enough to walk on and strong enough to hold a cart.

Mother Spindle made all of it and she is still making it. She is older than the woods she is wrapping and she has the patience of something that has never once needed to hurry. Her brood work the outer lines. She works the centre, and the centre is closer to the camp every night.

The tailors, to their credit, saw the opportunity before they saw the problem. Silk that strong is worth a great deal and it comes off her woods by the bale. All it costs is going in there and taking it.

Camp defenses: +60% No Sugar Rush. Eat a candy first.

Mother Spindle has fallen (October 19). The fight is over.

Next up: The Oozelord

The story so far

Chapter 1 DEFEATED

Gourdon the Rotten

the pumpkin that would not stay carved

Gourdon came apart in the middle of the field and the grins went out one by one, all the way down the rows. What is left is seed and pulp and a green stain in the soil that nobody wants to touch. The harvest is ruined. The camp is not. Somebody has already started carving a wall out of the pieces.
Chapter 2 DEFEATED

The Bone Broker

who sells what he steals

The Bone Broker came apart at the joints and the sack split with him. Everything he had taken is back on the grass, and so is everything he took from wherever he was before. The tier two patterns are in camp hands now and the forge can finally move past copper. The ledger burned. Nobody is sorry.
Chapter 3 DEFEATED

Mother Spindle

matron of the silk woods

Mother Spindle folded into her own web and the woods went quiet for the first time in a fortnight. The sheets are still out there, acres of them, and they belong to nobody now. The tailors have not stopped working since. Half the camp is wearing silk and the other half is queuing for a loom.
Chapter 4 DEFEATED

Sir Hollowmere

the knight with nothing under the helm

Sir Hollowmere went down on one knee, and then the armour went down, and there was nothing inside it but cold air and a folded pattern. The camp's iron held. The plate is scrap now, good scrap, and what came out of the helm is worth more than the fight cost.
