Re: Monster Fortress (IC Thread)

Suddenly, Rita tripped. Her foot caught on the edge of a natural trail. Such trails were often made when animals used the same path to go to a location. Not only could this be used to maybe find water, but also be used as an effective area to hunt or set traps for food.

[cocoaSmiles]

Rita let out a groan as she sat up, looking at the natural trail, letting out a huh as she got up, "look at this.." she said as she slowly got up.

[V.M.P.]

"you think we should take her up on the offer? I'm not too thirst-", he proceeds to cough and hack violently. "lets bring her along, lead the way.", he says, as he stops trying to skin the badger for now, and is not following jaes.

"Alright!" Petrie just now realized introduction time was over, but he's better late than never. " I'm Petrie. My name has six letters I think."

[Loki]

Grak peered along the trail, gripping his horn tightly in case any pretties jumped out at them. "It looks like lots of pretties go this way. Maybe we should follow it?"

[cocoaSmiles]

She nodded, looking to see if the grass happend to be bending a particular way, maybe showing them where they should head and what way to follow it, "Yes, lets.. Um which way?" She asked him standing proper and quickly looking back and forth between each way.

[Loki]

"Um..." Turning around and examining the grass he points to the right. "Let's try that way?" It was clear from the way he turned the suggestion into a question that he wasn't sure. But hey, they had to go one way or the other.

[cocoaSmiles]

She nodded and began to follow the path down the hill, keeping her eyes wide open, so she could possibly spot any pretties if they passed.

[Loki]

He picked up his pace as he headed downhill, eagert to find some water so they could decide on a tree to spend the night in.

[cocoaSmiles]

She speed up even more, excited and tripped. Rolling her ass down the hill, wirh Squeaks and ophs and owewws. She grumbled when she finaly stoped rolling and just kinda layed there for a moment.

[BurdenKing]

a cold feeling rushed over Rita's hand, and a slight nibble was felt on the tips of her fingers. She had rolled far, and through some bushes, and had come to the beach of a rather sizable pond with crystal clear water that had a few fish in it. A small little waterfall could be seen, and it was obvious this was a point where water gathered before going more downhill.

[Loki]

Seeing her fall and tumble down the hill Grak gave a shout and chased after her, stumbling and almost falling a few times himself. By some stroke of luck he made it to thee bottom on his feet and crouched beside her, glancing at the water. "Rita... Rita okay?"

[cocoaSmiles]

She stared in awww forget any pain from falling as the water brushed over her fingers and she felt the nibbles on her finger. "I-is a prettie eating me?" she whimpered

[Loki]

Leaning over her and staring into the water at the pretty nibbling her fingers he narrowed his eyes and tried to grab it. "Get away from her!"

[cocoaSmiles]

She pulled her hand back and stared at it in horror, and yet there were her fingers, no bloody stumps. "I-im okay. Rhe pretties didn't hurt, see." she sat up showing off her fingers.

[Loki]

He nods, sitting back on his haunches. "I see. That's good." Grinning at her he dips a hand into the water. "We found it. Now we can drink, and find somewhere to sleep."

[BurdenKing]

He grabbed a small fish, which rapidly began to thrash in the goblins hands.

The water was cool to the touch, and with how clear it was, without a doubt was clean

[cocoaSmiles]

She nodded reaching down in to the water and scooping it up in to her hands before bringing some up to her mouth and sipping it out of her hands. It was super refreshing. It would be a good idea to chose a place to sleep for the night, maybe make a makeshift fire and wash her hat before the darkness fell fully.

[Loki]

He looked over the pretty he had caught before throwing it back into the water. They had already ate, so there was no point in keeping it. Leaning down he scooped up some of the water, sipping it out of his cupped hands. Sitting back again he peered around a bit, then headed towards the nearest tree. "This could be good for sleeping in the dark."

[cocoaSmiles]

She looked back and watched him head to a tree, nodding her head as she pulled her rabbit hat off, "Good, we still have small time before dark fall. We should uh, prepare?" She questioned, moving closer to the water, so her feet just barly got wet and dipped her hat in to the stream, scrubbing it with her fingers.

[Loki]

Nodding he started gathering up sticks and moss and leafs again. "Yes. And we can keep coming back here if we want. It should be a good place for us to stay during the dark." Piling the sticks and kindling up under the tree he had choosen he wanders back to the water, watching her.

[cocoaSmiles]

She got up and walked over to the tree, using a lower branch to rest her hat over and let it.. do its drying thing. "We should keep coming back, there are pretties in the water, and pretties must come round, we keep coming back we find them, we make things to catch them too, maybe someday?" She shruged and wandered back to the water, picking up a few stones here and there, looking them over.

[Loki]

Turning around to face her at the water's edge he smiles and nods. "Yesss. That's a good idea. Should be able to get all the pretties we need, and we can explore around in the light." Going back to the tree and resting a hand on the trunk he looked up into the branches. "Want me to help you up?"

[cocoaSmiles]

She looked up, thinking about it, a little unsure tho a little help would be good, "Sure. I would like help to the up." she said and took a moment to correct her self, "I would like help up.. yeah." She gave a slighly crooked smile to the other.

[Loki]

Smoothering a giggle he leans his back against the tree, crouching a bit and cuppping his hands for her. "I's try to lift you."
