The harpy’s fingers is the name of a whip used to scourge slaves in Astapor. The handle is made of black dragonbone elaborately carved and inlaid with gold. Nine long leather lashes trail from it, each tipped by a gilded claw. The gold pommel is a woman’s head with pointed ivory teeth. The whip is given to new masters of Unsullied as a mark of payment.
