Stjarna thought for awhile on the best way to fulfill the man's request. How to get both the skin and the skull without anything rotting. Leaving muscle on the skull would rot. "Ok, we'll need to remove the hide. Next we'll clean the meat off the skull and remove the brain. Then we can stick the hide back on with pine pitch." Star nodded. Yes, this sounded like it would work.
Star moved over to the lion head and used his fangs to cut the flesh down the center of the neck so they could peel it away from the muscle. Star worked quickly, removing the hide from the neck. The blue-eyed man could work on peeling however much skin off the face that he wanted. Star pulled the hide back and finished removing it from the neck with the mane in tact.
