Wyrma — the biting fly of wet and standing ground.
Notes
Small, persistent, and out from the first warm days until the frosts. Breeds in still water, which makes the Eldershore Ireis fields and the northern moorland its country.
The reason a Wallach wallows more than the heat alone accounts for, and the reason nobody camps beside standing water on the Guild Road if there is drier ground within a mile. Smoke keeps them off and every waystation burns something in the evening for that purpose.
