Treasures of the Tine — the fan lore's named objects. All fan-made fiction.
The Driftwood Paddle
A paddle carved from a single piece of flood driftwood, given to Whit by Old Eddy after the Quiet Minute. It doesn't steer — rapids spirits don't need steering — it remembers: every run Whit ever made is worn into its grain. Whit has never used it and would fight anyone who tried to take it.
Fan-made
The Foam Crown
Woven from first-foam of the spring flood by Rill and the mist sprites. It dissolves by midsummer and is rewoven every year — "because," Rill says, "some crowns should have to be earned annually." Whit wears it to the Flood Festival and nowhere else.
Fan-made
The Riverstone Heart
A smooth teal orb, warm to the touch, found in the plunge pool where Whit was born. The lore says it's the first stone the Falls ever polished — the river's oldest memory. It glows brighter when the current runs fast. Whit keeps it in the Quiet Reach, "where it can rest," and visits when no one's watching.
Fan-made
The Current-Rope
A coil of rope braided from salvaged fishing line and river grass, used to tow stranded spirits out of hydraulics. Every knot was tied by someone Whit rescued. There are a lot of knots.
