A Fellowship of Academics & Arts

What if sharing a cookie with your enemy made your dreams come true?

Verdreth and Ervash, both orcs, are about to embark on the most “terrifying” adventure in their lives together… becoming grandpas.

Their adopted human daughter, Arleta, is ready to give birth in mere hours. Of course Verdreth is thrilled to take on this new role with his long-time partner since he never imagined they’d experience such an honor… particularly with the rocky start to their relationship.

To pass the time, one of their friends asks Verdreth to tell the tale of how he and Ervash met. He’s reluctant, since they were very different orcs when they met over thirty years prior. But with Ervash’s permission, (and to help him calm his nerves) he starts at the beginning…

Cozy Pairings

Each pairing is chosen to create a cozy moment where scent, story, and craft come together.
Vanilla & Cashmere

Vanilla & Cashmere is a soft and luxurious fragrance that blends creamy vanilla with warm sandalwood, gentle musk, and smooth cashmere notes. Subtle and refined, this scent feels clean, comforting, and quietly indulgent. The warmth of vanilla is balanced by light woods and soft musk, creating a smooth, layered aroma that lingers beautifully without overpowering. It brings a sense of calm and ease to any space, like wrapping yourself in something soft at the end of the day.

Why we chose this: Verdreth and Ervash are about to become grandpas, and to pass the nervous hours they are telling the story of how two very different orcs found each other thirty years ago. Vanilla + Cashmere is the scent of a love that has had time to settle into something deep and lasting, soft and quietly indulgent, the feeling of warmth that has been there so long it has become part of the room itself. Light this candle as Verdreth begins at the beginning, and let the gentle comfort of vanilla and sandalwood fill the room like a story that gets sweeter every time it's told.
