Got a lot of encouragement in chat to suggest this. Basically I just am not a huge fan of the current beetles-as-companions decors, and with the dead beetles in my hoard I would love to see some kind of jewelry crafted from them or something?

My personal thought was like a necklace made of all the bodies of your dead beetles, which is rather morbid but a really neat idea considering how people collect insects. I would love to see a bunch of beetles strung together around the neck of my king, or even just separate necklaces or anklets or other jewelry of each beetle that my lions could /wear/.

A beetle companion suggests a living beetle. The beetles in your hoard are /dead/ and their exoskeletons would be really cool to use as some sort of interesting jewelry or whatever else?

Anyway, support if you love it, comment with other ideas if you have em, etc. If you don't support I would love actual critique and reasons as to why. Please be gentle on my anxiety >u<
