wax time

Image Description

an illustration by Spindle of the character Ottilie, a human with brown orange-ish short hair tied up in a bun. She's wearing a black hairband, a green shirt, and black short shorts (They look greenish here). The pose is of her sitting and waxing her l e g s. Surrounding her is a bowl with the wax, a soft brush, a cloth, and a small oil jar with incense in it.

(some smol lore bit, the wax itself is a mix of honey wax and/or resin, scent herbs and Kul root; a fictional plant, when mixed with the oil of its fruits and "cooked", help soothe and moisturize skin. The incense itself is a bit different from regular incense, it more so is similar to candles, the stick draws in the oil and heats it up [using small runes engraved on the stick] to create the incense. These are usually used for quick makeshift "scented candles" or if you're otti, can't be bothered to buy a candle. The oil itself here is used after hair removal, but bonus use is the nice smell for otti)
