Quoth the Dvoverie:
“Who’s a good cow? Yes it’s you! Let me brush your coat… good girl…”
Kith Excerpt:
Even before their Chrysalis, those folks soon to be Dvorerie love their animals. They are always fawning over their pets, playing and petting them in the heart-warming displays of affection. They never fail to take the dog or cat outside, always ensure fresh food and water, and always clean up any messes. That is, until their chrysalis, and they are first presented with white-fur.

With such disparity, it is easy to understand why many farmsteads in antiquity were reluctant to harbor a Dvorerie. One white kitten brought home would mean no small amount of damage to the house and it’s residents. Still, the Dvorerie persisted though the years, bouncing from farm to farm. In the modern world of men with fewer and fewer farms to harbor them, they have found other means. Good modern cities have police forces that may include horses, and the trendiest of haute-elitist encourage chicken-coops on roof-tops. Regardless of times or places, the Dvorerie will find a way. Unless of course, that way includes a white-furred animal, and then it’s chaos.

“A farm is a manipulative creature. There is no such thing as finished. Work comes in a stream and has no end. There are only the things that must be done now and things that can be done later. The threat the farm has got on you, the one that keeps you running from can until can’t, is this: do it now, or some living thing will wilt or suffer or die. Its blackmail, really.”
― Kristin Kimball, “The Dirty Life: On Farming, Food, and Love”
