[b]Behrad[/b][emoji=plague rune size=1] Behrad followed Matcha and their new Bogsneak companion as they made their way into the wilderness. He stood tall and tried to look confident, but in his head all the plants just looked like grass. He was trying, though, and he thought maybe there were a few herb-like things around. They could just be weeds though. He branched off from the others, heading for a small thicket of bushes with some undergrowth beneath them. The things beneath the bush were plants for sure, but of what kind he didn't know. [b]"Have you guys found anything?"[/b] He calls from beneath the bushes as he begins to rummage around.

Mazon sat down against a tree and began sorting the materials she had gathered. "Ok, I've got everything except some fletching. Maybe leafs would work," she mused. Standing up again, she reached up to a low hanging branch and carefully pulled some leafs off. She then sat back down and began to work.

Thankfully, he seems to recognize one or two things that used to grow near the marshlands of The Resting Grounds.

Still... it's better than nothing, right? At least they have some nutrition and taste somewhat like boiled potatoes when cooked.[/i] [font=courier new][size=2][b]RESTORES 5 HP UPON CONSUMPTION.[/size][/indent][/columns] [/quote] ----- [sub]Mazon, resourcefully, decides that in the absence of feathers, at least she has leaves at her disposal everywhere she looks. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like she's quite sure on how to piece everything together. Some of the arrows end up nigh unusable, a waste of materials, others seem... wobbly at best.

They don't have any fletching, which isn't a great sign, but at least you managed to make something![/i][/indent][/columns] [/quote]

[columns][font=times new roman]Mazon's arrows... Didn't look great. Autiot had never made arrows before, but he was pretty sure they weren't supposed to look so knobbly and uneven. [b]"Let me help-"[/b] Autiot said, crouching down to grab a few arrows and attempt to fix them up a bit.[/font][nextcol][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=38902766][img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/389028/38902766.png[/img][/url][/columns] -----

[center][img]https://i.imgur.com/PlgnaxH.png[/img][/center] ----- [center][font=courier new][b]AUTIOT TRIES TO FIX MAZON'S ARROWS.[/b][/font][/center] ----- [sub]Doesn't seem like Autiot has had much opportunity in his life to make weapons, honestly speaking. The arrows that he tries to futz with end up falling apart in his hands. The stick is almost unusable, but thankfully the rocks are hard to break. At least he didn't grab too many of them. [quote name=CRAFTING] [center][font=courier new][b]AUTIOT[/b] tries to fix some [b]ARROWS[/b], [b]MAZON[/b] ends up with: [columns][item=skipping stone][nextcol][b][font=courier new]STONE ( 2 ) [indent][sub][i] Some flat stones that chip fairly well when struck with something sturdier, the remnants of Autiot's attempts to help her fix some of her arrows.[/i] [/indent][/columns] [/quote] -----

"Well, thanks for trying anyway," Mazon said. "Making arrows is pretty tough. Especially when you don't have proper materials. I'll just have to remember to buy some when we get to the city."

[columns][font=times new roman]Well, if he'd taken more than a moment to remind himself of how little dexterity he had with his hands, Autiot could've prevented this mess from happening. But nope, the arrows fell apart and he dipped his head in mild embarrassment. [b]"Yes- arrows will definitely need to be bought,"[/b] Autiot murmured in quiet agreement. [b]"Apologies for... Uh, disassembling those. It was an accident,"[/b][/font][nextcol][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=38902766][img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/389028/38902766.png[/img][/url][/columns] -----

"I know, it's ok," she assured him. She brushed her pants off as she stood up and put the arrows into her quiver. 'Hopefully we won't need to use any before getting to the city,' she thought to herself.

As Hal pushes aside the leaves, his eyes perk with recognition as the fronds of several growing plants begin to show, having taken shelter underneath the falling foliage from various herbivores that may have wished to do them harm.
