West of the Sun. East of the Moon is a wearable fairy tale—bold, surreal, and touched with snowlight and prophecy. Based on the old Nordic legend of a girl who rides a great white bear into an enchanted fate, this design channels the sweeping mythos of frostbitten kingdoms and love tested in forgotten lands.

The panels blaze with motion and meaning: the massive polar bear, rendered in ghostly ivory, charges across a dreamlike world of curling shadows and golden skies. Fiery oranges and deep blacks swirl with wild flora, strange runes, and elemental shapes, evoking the surreal landscapes of myth. A brilliant sun glows behind distant mountains on the toe, while the girl—small, fearless, and radiant—holds fast to her companion, cloaked in fate.

The Laments believed this scene depicted a polar bear chosen by the moon herself, carrying generations of brave girls on sacred paths. Those who wore these shoes were said to dream of frost-touched staircases and wake with snow in their hair—whether or not it had snowed at all.

Wonders Whispered About These Wares

Powers Bestowed Upon the Possessor

Snowlight Passage — The ability to find a path where none exists, guided by glints of starlight on snow, even through the deepest night or most treacherous terrain.

Oathkeeper’s Resolve — A steadfast heart that will not falter, even when love is tested across impossible distances or under impossible terms.

Moon’s Chosen Dreaming — Each sleep brings visions of frost-clad staircases and aurora-lit horizons, offering glimpses of a destiny yet to be claimed.

Jaded Lament Discovery Note

Recovered from a frost-cracked trunk deep within the cellar vaults of the abandoned House of Varre, a cliffside manor overlooking the icebound Gulf of Bothnia. The trunk was sealed with wax and silver wire, as if to keep something in—or out. Local whispers claimed the house’s last heiress vanished one winter night, seen riding into the blizzard astride a great white bear. Inside the trunk, the shoes lay wrapped in a pelt of snow-matted fur that never melted, even before the hearth’s fire.
