Cracking pen. Pink Ivory, also known as Red Ivorywood or Red Ivory, and the reason is evident here, its an exceptional piece of wood. Alas Doug, you're in the Poo though, Red Ivory has been declared as a "Royal" wood by the King of the Zulus and this means, like tambootie that he who touches it without the Kings permission has a death spell placed over them. Funny though that these death spells only became commonly distributed when the commercial value of the wood was realised and the local traders, who of course respect both the King and his spells then ceased to trade in it, leaving it for the Kings chosen traders to peddle the stuff and no doubt giving his Royal Highness a spell free backhander for lifting the spell on their commercial activities.
Spell or not a splendid finish.
