RULES:
- Items that say "trade only" next to them must be traded with something already in your character's inventory. Keep in mind that trades will be considered by Gracenne--the seasonal vendor--this time around! These items require an interaction with your character, albeit I'd like to keep these brief. You can either post here or contact me privately via discord or email, whatever makes you more comfortable.
For example: Deery the deer approached the sphinx with a magic sword in their mouth. "Can I trade this for two jars of honey?" They asked.

- I'll also accept art (any and all skill levels are welcome btw) of Graceanne for part of a trade if your character doesn't already have anything for trading. You can basically "spawn" in an item and they can offer it to her.
For example: Deery the deer MAGICALLY found a pretty geode laying on the Forest floor. "Trade this for a bunch of blue ribbons?" (Include a link to a drawing a Graceanne)

- Items that don't say "FREE" can be taken as long as you let me know--no interaction necessary other than letting me know what character is taking which--but a "thank you" from your character is always appreciated! Graceanne remembers those who are kind to her.

- You're free to use the items in your character's bio or on-site wherever, so long as you do not remove my signature. Also apologies as I'm unable to make the items transparent :c If you'd like the .sai file to make it transparent yourself, message me!

- Want a black apple? A special custom trinket for your character's use? Custom and customized items are available via art trade! Message me privately to set it up.

Music is "Great Pumpkin Waltz" by Vince Guaraldi Trio

It’s clear that the lazy days of summer are coming to an end. You’re not sure if you first noticed the sun setting earlier or the brisker weather, but after a hot, draining summer, it’s a welcome change. The end of summer signals the impending harvest and the residents of The Endless Forest are eager to plunge in and reap the benefits of their Rut, whether they be new friends, new skills, or the possibility of little ones in the spring. It’s a time of cooler weather, relaxation, and excitement. You can’t help but think about crisp autumn breezes and crunchy leaves as you’re on a leisurely stroll around the Forest that leads you to the Oak.

A familiar (or perhaps not so) sight greets you and you pause in your walk. Before you are several hundred pounds of sphinx, the same sphinx, in fact, that was around in the spring giving out her wares for free. Although her size is formidable, it’s hard to be afraid when her front and back legs are tucked underneath her bulk, making her look not unlike a massive housecat, especially when she looks over at you with half-lidded eyes and chuffs before closing them.



Before her, as usual, is a piece of paper (this time a scroll) and after reading the rules, you gather that there are some items you can take freely and others must be traded for. You glance around. Where’s the stuff? You wonder, eager to find a new treasure or snack. As if reading your mind, the sphinx shifts her weight slightly and you see the aforementioned items behind her in orderly fashion so that you may browse at your leisure. Too eager to hold back, you rush forward, carefully stepping around the small contained firepit she's somehow made up--

And freeze when you hear a growl. She’s watching you out of the corner of one opened eye.

“I don’t take kindly to thieves,” Her voice is fitting for a creature of her size. “As long as you take heed of the rules and the exchange is fair, we won’t have any problems at all.”

With that she closes her eye, turns away, and yawns luxuriously. You see a flash of feline teeth as she yawns.

Cinnamon brooms; TRADE ONLY

This bristles of this handmade broom were soaked in cinnamon oil and lightly dusted in ground cinnamon, giving off a very nice scent. The ties are made of plant leather.
Sweep your den, your favorite sitting spot, even your loved ones! Whatever you sweep will be sure to smell cinnamon-y for a few hours, or simply leave it somewhere to disperse a longer lasting scent.



"Dry" soap; TRADE ONLY for a bar, free samples available

Although this soap is vegan, it was tested on animals, although said animal was Graceanne. This special soap is scent free and crumbles easily into a powder. Simply rub it onto your body and then shake off and the soap ~magically~ absorbs all oils, dirt, and scents (perfect for hiding evidence of that secret rendezvous) leaving your skin, feathers, fur, or scales clean. Placing it on the ground and rolling on it achieves the same effect, in case you have to use your mouth to pick it up.
Wax paper for holding purposes available upon request.



Organic apples; FREE

Freshly picked and already washed, these apples are ready to be munched and crunched. The more green or yellow on an apple, the more sharp and sweet the flavor; a more uniform red signals a mellow flavor.



Honey; TRADE ONLY

Ethically sourced and organic! As an added bonus, the bees who provided this honey are allowed to hibernate during the winter. Comes in container with lid. Feel free to return the jar when you're done for a rebate of.. some kind. Gracenne will talk to you.



Ribbons; less than 6 in (~15 cm) is FREE, anything above that is TRADE ONLY
*Simple alt colors are also available

Oh, pretty! Some ribbons that you can tie on all sorts of things. Maybe you can use these to pretty yourself up during the Rut? Graceanne is dexterous enough to tie it in a simple knot around whatever you want, just ask. If you want anything more complex, such as a bow or plaiting, you'll have to go somewhere else.
