Icy Apple

Icy Apple by Mochi
In the frozen plains of Glacin, frost cattle roam around, standing over four metres tall. They dwarf anybody and everybody in the world of Ava Admira, and because of this they can pose a danger.   Frost cattle are easily startled, which can cause herds of thousands to stampede. For that reason, many people carry icy apples on them, as a form of protection. These delicious fruits grow high up in the trees, too tall for even the tallest frost cattle. People fly up, chop down some apples, and give them to the cattle to form a friendship.
 

 

Frost Cattle

The most ginormous animal around Glacin, frost cattle migrate in their thousands. Entire herds have dug up the ground, forming pathways across the frozen plains, followed year after year. They are a pest in some areas, having destroyed sprawling farmlands. Nevertheless, their territories are respected, even if they encroach on people's properties.  

A Staple of Asadela

One of the oldest countries in Ava Admira is Asadela. This massive country grows forests of these apple trees, harvested and sold around the outskirts of civilisation, where frost cattle may roam.   People carry these apples as a form of protection. An icy apple can calm down any startled frost cattle,

Mummy, look! It's a cow!   Yes, it is honey. Now be careful, and hold that apple out flat on your wing, for him to take.

I just started a Humblewood 5e campaign where everyone is forest animals. We had a discussion that the different animals that would just be "people." That got everyone thinking about how they describe themselves. I enjoyed seeing that here. "People fly up, chop down some apples," "hold that apple out flat on your wing," "People carry these apples as a form of protection."   The colors and theme are striking too.
