Golden Slumber

A Golden Slumber is a small little trinket that is said to be able to give you a good sleep at night. Made from a mix of Everwood from Terra Eclipsis and gold, Golden Slumbers are often put at one's bedside, facing towards them, and it's said that the energy exuded from them is enough to bring good dreams to the owner. These trinkets have become particularly popular as a form of comfort for both Lyudi from Strakh and for the general populace after The Withering.

History

Golden Slumbers were made by a Elf named Yig, whom had moved to Earth and was living in New Orleans. They were made based on a story he had heard from locals in the area about glowing balls that people reportedly saw in the swamps at night-- of which was speculated to be a Wisp. Yig was said to have travelled into the swamps and seen one of these balls, and according to him:

I'd have taken a picture of this strange orb, and I swear, the thing looked to have had two small little arms and four legs. That same night when I got home, I swear, I had a wonderful sleep. It was as if I was blessed by something, and the timing felt far from coincidental to me.

Wanting for his own daughter to have these good night sleeps, but being unable to find or catch one of these glowing orbs, Yig had decided to create a trinket based off of them. After creating the first one, he opted to name them 'Golden Slumbers', for the good slumber that he gained after seeing one. Afterward, he began to make more of them, selling them to friends and family before eventually getting together a small group of locals in New York to make a whole bunch of them for anyone to get.

Nowadays after The Withering, Yig and his family lives in NEO City, but they've continued to make plenty of these with the help of a few folks there. They're popular amongst those who wish for a good night's sleep, especially for the Lyudi on Strakh. Although it's hard to say if they actually do bring a good's night sleep or not, the cute design of them as well as the reassuring smile on it tends to sell people on the idea that they will. And really, why wonder if they work or not when people believe they do?
