The story of Irid Emberflight
A fictional story inspired by the artwork.
The Irid Emberflight post keeps two copies of every proclamation. One stays under glass in the city hall. The other travels by phoenix, tucked against the cool lining of a teal coat. New heralds spend their first week learning how to fold their wings without melting a single drop of sealing wax.
A hooded herald once took a message to a town whose tower had lost its bell. From above, the roofs all looked alike. Her instructions said to land beside the bell rope, but the people had taken the rope down and used it to secure a footbridge after the spring floods.
She landed beside the bridge instead. A boy led her to a kitchen where the old bell stood upside down on the table. The townspeople had filled it with letters for relatives across the valley. It took all six heralds to carry the answers home before the evening rain came over the ridge.
The designs pair fiery coral feathers with flashes of pale opal and heavy dark fabric. The herald holding a scroll against his chest has pulled his sleeves back so the wax stays clear of his cuffs. The expedition gave the post a new custom. A bundle of ordinary letters now travels with every formal proclamation.
