Heirlooms

Twig's Hammelhornskin Waistcoat

When Twig first arrived at the Tatum's village in 33 ᴇ.ʏ., Ma-Tatum gave him a hammelhorn waistcoat as thanks for saving Gristle's life. Twig wore the waistcoat consistently for 16 years, before leaving it with his 3-year-old daughter, Keris. She wore it for 11 years before being told by her uncle where it had come from. In 60 ᴇ.ʏ., Tweezel discovered Quint's sword miniature hidden inside the lining of the waistcoat, which had been placed there by Twig when he left the slaughterer village.
