Yodhallow
The letter had been seared onto the flank of the farmerās golden sow; a long stroke and a dot above, encrusted by blood and half-formed scabs. Bound by fury, he had tramped across the meagre valley that surrounded Yodhallow and onto the shepherdās land to demand answers from the sheep herder. They were the only two people who possessed any sort of cattle brand. Dumbfounded, the shepherd let loose the sheep he was about to shear and led the pork farmer to the pen, where the sheep brand hung from a metal hook. The end of the rod formed a curly āMā shape at odds to the one on the sow.
