Blatsa, wishing he had his bow, sighs.  He turns around and follows his trail back, making a detour for the lake so that he can take a drink.

Vrede finishes drying and hardenin the spear, looking it over as the color had begun to set in at the tip. He begins to cook a slab of Bolgil meat for him to tear into once it's finished

Blatsa, wishing he had his bow, sighs.  He turns around and follows his trail back, making a detour for the lake so that he can take a drink.
Blatsa goes back down to the water, but notices a strange new plant sticking out of the water.  It seems to be emitting a sweet smell.

Vrede finished his spear, but then looks next to himself...
Blatsa ... cooks the good cuts of meat, eating one and distributing the rest.
...and finds that Blatsa left him a present.

Öln finally wakes up after having slept through most of the day, and begins working the dagu intestines into a twine-based leash for the one that he captured.

Once he finishes, he leaves the cave to get a drink from the lake.

Whatshername checks her new surroundings, walking in looser and looser concentric circles for about 700 feet in either direction before moving back toward the center.

Blatsa investigates the strange plant, approaching it slowly and touching it gently, ready to pull his hand back as soon as something bad happened.

Öln finally wakes up after having slept through most of the day, and begins working the dagu intestines into a twine-based leash for the one that he captured.

Once he finishes, he leaves the cave to get a drink from the lake.
The dagu is awake and looks hungry and thirsty, and also is seemingly upset by its new enclosure.

Öln goes down and grabs a drink of water, and also fills up his new waterskin.



Bayarmaa checks her new surroundings, walking in looser and looser concentric circles for about 700 feet in either direction before moving back toward the center.
Bayarmaa finds that she had arrived in a loose forest.  As she travelled more eastward, she found that she was in the grassy foothills.  As she travelled more westward, she found herself in the low-lying thicker forest.

In the area, she saw atii, shendama, and tegacha berries, ebana fruits, and some eikai grazing on the plains.



Blatsa investigates the strange plant, approaching it slowly and touching it gently, ready to pull his hand back as soon as something bad happened.
The plant appears to do nothing on approach.  as he touches it, he realizes that the plant is covered with a sticky resinous fluid.  As he pulls back, a string of the fluid traces back from his hand to the "plant."

Veshikk looks to finish his waterskin even though I don't think we ever collected pitch (???)

Blatsa, puzzled, sniffs and then dabs his tongue in the fluid.

Veshikk looks to finish his waterskin even though I don't think we ever collected pitch (???)
I think you did.  So let's just say you finished it.  Also I recommend that you keep track of your supplies in your character post, and tribal supplies in the tribal post.



Blatsa, puzzled, sniffs and then dabs his tongue in the fluid.
The liquid is very aromatic and pleasant to smell.  As he tastes it, he finds that it is pleasant to taste, and even feels slightly more relaxed having eaten some.

Blatsa is a bit relieved as he is not poisoned by the sweet substance, and then begins to consume more.

Blatsa finds that he is getting sleepy as he continues to eat this nectar.  The "plant", which Blatsa quickly realizes is a trap by some large animal, thrashes about and sticks to Blatsa.  As he gets a glance at the water, a Chogura shell begins to surface as the water gets muddy.

Blatsa cries out for help as he quickly reaches for his knife, attempting to pull away from the plant.

The tail is stuck to Blatsa's shirt.  He succeeds at getting out his knife, but is unable to move at the moment.  The beast begins to drag Blatsa towards the water.

Blatsa, running out of options and ideas, begins to stab the tail.
