"Baashaun? Yes, they can be found in the Safari Zone and a few places in the plains of Creshire where they've escaped into the wild. They're a fighting sheep, like an aggressive Mareep, I think. They have to be shipped from Tandor, including most of our wool, since Creshire doesn't produce enough."

Helping Hand can be used, but it doesn't grant what I might call "Proficiency." It will make your roll better, but it won't give you the requisite 2 points in Craft if you didn't already have them.

"Myths of the Southern Stars" by Torch Singh, a postgrad at Telperion!

A passage catches Shiva's eye, since she's skipping all the history bits. It details the myths of the indigenous culture living in the Hog Potato swamp, the same culture who wrote Shiva's music book.

"I came to the campfire of the chiefs, and there amidst the smoke and swamp, I bore witness to this ritual descant:"

"How different are the gods of Earth and Sky! Two above and one below, yet Earth is the greater. How different are the gods of Earth and Sky! Yet the Sky predicts the Earth. The stars of desert, mountain, sea, and plains reflect the distant ends of Creshire like a mirrored pool of water."

"Our own corner, one of swamp and sea, has no reflection in this vast pool of the sky, for the skies are ours to command. With our music, our instruments, we summon the South Wind incarnate, and she flies us northward. Then tears fill our eyes, for the South Wind cannot carry us home again."

"The ends of the earth, hosting South Wind and mighty legends, swamp and mountain. Let your voices be heard from one to the other, letting all be roused."

"This speech awed me, and I made sure to note its every particular. It is the one of the few times the indigenous people of the Swamp made mention of the stars. Many of Creshire's stars are unique, being visible only from the Southern Hemisphere. To find a unique legend within those unique stars is a rare chance indeed."
