Cobwen Aspenbreeze
the Stormthorn Fairy
Named for the spider's web that holds lightning and the aspen's shudder before the first crack of thunder.
Power
Storm-thread — you can bind a bargain into a thistle's thorn; the storm will remember it, but each thorn holds only one vow, and if the thistle dies, the deal unravels.

You were mending a fence on a still afternoon when the first thistle bloomed purple and the sky split at the same seam. It was not the storm you expected—the rain was warm and tasted of iron, and every drop that hit a thistle head became a black seed. You collected them in your apron, and that is how you learned to count what the storm leaves behind.
