FLAVOR TEXT

It opens with a pop and leaves trouble standing in the rain.

LORE

The rain began sideways before we reached the second ridge. I lost sight of the trail, my escort, and eventually the ground beneath my feet. Then an umbrella opened above me. Gustrella caught the canyon wind and carried us clear of the collapsing path. It struck the creature pursuing me with an Updraft Snap, then folded itself neatly and vanished into the storm as another Forgekin took its place beside me. Travelers describe Gustrella as fickle because it rarely remains after intervening. That is unfair. These rare Forgekin appear precisely where the wind carries them, offer protection for exactly as long as it is needed, and depart before gratitude can become expectation. I reached the next Hearth alive. The umbrella I had packed for the journey was never found. Courier Sella Marr, Galecrest route record
