The Stonewright Ghost Figurine - Anker

Awarded Entity Number - JH1189-SWA

Chosen 26th of August, in the Year of Quiet Hauntings.

Placed into the Kingdom of Sweden.

Old Guild records speak of pale spirits found close to buildings that have stood longer than anyone remembers.

They favour limewashed walls, old foundations and stones worn smooth by generations of hands. Their markings resemble the fine fractures found in ageing plaster and masonry; the quiet evidence of winters endured, timbers settling and houses refusing to fall.

Stonewrights are not believed to cause these cracks. Rather, old accounts suggest they appear wherever something has been repaired many times and is still expected to endure.

For this reason, they have long been regarded by some Merchants as spirits of persistence, repair and the stubborn survival of old places.

They are most often found sitting silently beside walls.

Whether they are inspecting the workmanship remains undocumented.

Anker has repeatedly been found near thresholds and foundation stones, particularly in buildings where the floor has settled unevenly with age.

He appears especially interested in old repairs.

The Guild cannot determine whether he approves of them.

Anker the ghost figurine measures almost 9 cm in height.

These ghosts have a deliberately cracked and chipped outer layer.
