Description[]

"But of course you’ll always get some reckless son or daughter of the harvest who decides that things were better the way they were before, or they wonder if they’d just do better making a sacrifice to Old Jack Of The Thousand Ears, like their forefathers used to...

When that happens, there are always signs left behind.

Prayer-signs woven in wheat-tails.

Offerings of blood and bone in baked clay jars, half-buried in the soil.

Sometimes the sign of a god’s favour is only in the crops that have grown higher and thicker than nature should allow."

- Hayward [1]

Old Jack of the Thousand Ears was one of the harvest deities that was outlawed as they became amalgamated for profit.

Trivia[]

  • Some farmers still continue to worship it.[1]
