Frost statuette is a lesser work: a small figure carved by guild artisans in a Guild during the current Turning, by the method of Tellan, the Keeper of Tallies. It holds no Seal-shard and no hungry spirit. Many figures exist, and each breaks once.
It is thrown among the enemy before the fighting and shatters. A killing cold spreads from the pieces over every company on the other side. Those that can resist cold still do.
Cultivators of Bloom, the affinity of growth and living ground, will not keep one in their stores. Virenna, the Greenmother holds the First Seal, which holds back barrenness so that things may grow. The statuette's cold, they say, is barrenness in a small shape, and they want none of it near their fields. Other kingdoms keep it gladly and ask no questions of the cold.
A kingdom that trains Sunward Hand is said to get a deeper frost from the same figure.
