==History==
Enion took to working on mounted animals as a hobby. He was discovered by Atelloune Mairlaid, who greatly overestimated his abilities. Atelloune commissioned him to assist her set up her exhibition. At first Enion was eager to prove himself, but he soon discovered that Atelloune only wanted a servant. Seeing that the Warrior of Light had also volunteered to be her assistant, Enion decided to go ahead with his work.
Once the location of the exhibition was decided, the party traveled to the Ok' Zundu to collect the first specimen, a Hengr dhalmel. While the Vanu Vanu hunters searched for the dhalmel, the Warrior of Light took Enion to see one still alive to help him prepare the mannequin. Back in Gridania, Enion used what he had learned from his trip and made the manakin.
For the next specimen, Atelloune asked them to take the skin of a grizzly bear of Gyr Abania. Enion found the bear's body near the bank of a river, its pelt full of cuts and grazes. Considering the scarcity of this creature in the forest, Enion tried to find some use for the bear's skin. Though saddened by the state of the bear's pelt, Atelloune did not fault the Warrior for doing what they could to salvage it. Atelloune suggested the Warrior of Light make a simple pair of gloves.
The dhalmel mount attracted the attention of Marmaduke, a hearer of Stillglade Fane. He claimed that the mount was an affront to the elementals and demanded it be taken down. Atelloune discovered that neither the Hearers nor the Seedseers opposed the exhibition and that Marmaduke only used the elementals as an excuse to impose his ideals on others. Marmaduke took advantage of Atelloune's absence to get rid of the mount.
Unable to find the dhalmel mount, Atelloune asked Enion and the Warrior of Light to mount another specimen, the three-feathered gagana. They traveled to Gyr Abania only to discover that the three-feathered gagana had not been sighted for some time and some believed it was extinct. Enion suggested using the skin of a common gagana to breed a replica of the three-feathered one.
With the newest mount finished, Atelloune held her exhibition at Mih Khetto's Amphitheatre. Marmaduke demanded it suspended forthwith, but Atelloune ignored his order. She explained how changes in the environment have endangered myriad animal species, and how people should make a better effort to protect them. Touched by her words, Marmaduke bid her continue, and taught the people of Gridania the value of the lives they would otherwise take for granted. The exhibition ended a resounding success, Atelloune completing her work with animal mounts, and Enion finding himself the newest recruit of the Leatherworkers' Guild.
