Tributary — Afternoon, Day 7

[SWAT One]

Öln sees nothing that could be dangerous, and retrieves his axe, though he does scare a few fish away.

In other news, I opened a submission box for reproduction.

look man oln values his thighs man cant lose one to a loving turtle he's already lost enough to those  god damn crooks

Öln begins hauling back the roots and bird. He remains watchful for more fauna, however.

Blatsa takes his guts to a nearby water source and cleans them out thoroughly.  He then searches for a thick, slightly bent branch.

Vrede moves to climb up the tree and to grab one of the fruits, before looking to the sky and taking in the dark clouds for a moment- before deterring judgement to avoiding the oncoming rain, heading southeast after the smell of smoke, hoping to wander along until he happens upon the cause of the smell.

Öln sees no more fauna of note.  He arrives back at the cave entrance with his bounty to see that Blatsa is not there.

Blatsa takes his guts to a nearby water source and cleans them out thoroughly.  He then searches for a thick, slightly bent branch.

Blatsa looks in the forest for a good, curved branch, but is only able to find ones that are improperly shaped or are not strong enough.  He does find one, though, that would be good for hanging objects on.

Vrede moves to climb up the tree and to grab one of the fruits, before looking to the sky and taking in the dark clouds for a moment- before deterring judgement to avoiding the oncoming rain, heading southeast after the smell of smoke, hoping to wander along until he happens upon the cause of the smell.

Vrede takes the fruit with him and jumps down.  He heads southeast and happens upon a family of bolgil foraging in the woods some good distance off to the right and front.

Blatsa makes his way back to the cave, having not found a suitable rod.

[grunterdb1951]

Vrede briefly stops, moving to make his distance from the family of Bolgil and to briefly watch and examine them for any consistencies in behaviour, before carrying along until he gathers unwanted attention.

[Juncoph]

After placing down the roots, Öln carefully begins modifying his dagger to be used for skinning and gutting rather than fighting by working the upper part of it into a blade's edge.

[SWAT One]

Blatsa makes his way back to the cave, having not found a suitable rod.

Blatsa returns, finding that there are roots and a dead tejrze in a pile to the right and Öln sharpening his bone dagger.

(Let's just assume that Veshikk is taking a really long nap at the back of the cave or something.)

Vrede briefly stops, moving to make his distance from the family of Bolgil and to briefly watch and examine them for any consistencies in behaviour, before carrying along until he gathers unwanted attention.

The bolgil deem that Vrele is not a threat, given that a good distance is set between them.  After a while of going through the forest, the land starts sloping downward, and he arrives at the shore of the lake, where shendama and tegacha berries are growing on bushes.

As he arrives at the shore, the clouds are almost directly overhead.  He can see the furthest extent of the valley is already getting a sizable amount of rain.  As he looks across the shoreline, he notices a light coming from a cave in the distance.

After placing down the roots, Öln carefully begins modifying his dagger to be used for skinning and gutting rather than fighting by working the upper part of it into a blade's edge.

After Öln arrives at the cave, he uses Veshikk's knife to sharpen the bone to a decent point.

«Öln has leveled up!  Crafting lv. 1!»

this makes things far easier i feel


Öln begins gutting the fowl.

[grunterdb1951]

Vrede moves along and to the shoreline, looking to the bushes as he moves over to collect some of the Tegacha berries, eating them. He takes the time to look around at his new surroundings, looking to see if he can find any potential cover from the oncoming rain, or a way to safely make it across to the cave, while also looking for potential predators or animals.

[SWAT One]

Öln begins gutting the fowl.

Öln finishes gutting the fowl and receives 2 small cuts of meat.  The other guts don't look like they're really fit for much, however.

He takes the time to look around at his new surroundings, looking to see if he can find any potential cover from the oncoming rain, or a way to safely make it across to the cave, while also looking for potential predators or animals.

Vrede is fully filled by the tegacha berries.  As he looks toward the cave, there is a thick forest to his right, and the lake to his left.  There appears to be a fallen log on the way to the cave maybe a hundred meters off, but nothing really of note.  He sees no predators or other animals, as they've all probably taken shelter within the forest.  The cave is a walk along the shoreline away.

[grunterdb1951]

Vrede shifts off, making his way off and over to inspect the fallen log to see if it'd act as a potential bridge to cross over to the cave.

Nah man, it's just sitting on the shore.  You literally have to walk along the shoreline and you arrive near its entrance.

Kesakh, noticing again that Heshimun has become unresponsive yet again, eats the fish, and goes on his way.  Some time later, the large eagle from before lands on a tree branch outside of the cave entrance and appears to be looking in curiously.

[grunterdb1951]

Vrede forgetin' nudges that stuff like the dirty whore it is before carrying along to arrive at the cave, sniffing the fruit he earlier obtained, examining it over but not yet biting into it.
