Wild Spring Foraging...Then Finding More Than Herbs-CW LOG

***I spoofed a Guard named Biff and an un named healer so this could be logged as it was role play oocly in the woods..Icly did start in the woods and ended at Camp Willow....Also permission was gotten from Jarvis Player to have him have died. The story is Jarvis went to hunt down a slaver he remembered was off a path down river and ended up hurt in the fight, hurt from a couple other non vermin issues, ran out of supplies and  ended up deciding to head back, after killing the slaver and the slavers buddy and freeing a couple  non otter beasts...found by Aqua only to die  a little over half a day from Camp Willow...this log shows Aqua being found by Taran and Biff shortly after she passed out on a path while carrying Jarvis ***

Who:

Biff-Guard-Spoofed

Taran-Guard/Cook in Camp Willow

Aqua- Healer in Camp Willow

A spoofed Healer

Log:

The guard tagged along cause using the buddy system was always a good idea,”SO looking fer..wot now mate?”

Taran smiles “Nettle...Clover, some chickweed,morels a type of mushroom, even violets can be eaten..flowers and leaves.”He smiles, it was still good to get out sometimes.

Aqua had been away a couple weeks, mainly she went to go look for Jarvis, the good news is she found him and the bad news was, he was not in good shape. She argued with him on why did he go and track down any other slavers in the first place, then maybe he wouldn't of been injuries, would have had better supplies..would.......still be alive. Maybe it was a bad idea but, they were only a day from camp when he...when he died, she was not gonna leave him a day's walk from the camp, she carried him, only to stumpable a few times and finally just allow herself to stay sat on the ground and slip into the welcome embrace of unconsciousness.

The guard with Taran, one Biff, was tried “Can we head back now...”He seen movement and laid a paw on his dagger, slipping it out slowly and moved forwards singleing Taran to be careful.

Taran nods and then frowns as the knapsack Is closed and right away on his back and his sling , with stone, is out “What is it..friend or foe?”

They find a simi conscious Aqua...and beside her Jarvis...only he is not alive. He died some time in the last few hours. The otter maid stirs and opens her eyes only to groan.

Biff is at her side quickly and checks Jarvis only to frown at Taran, that knowing frown and goes to gently pick up Aqua”We need to get her back to Camp, she isn't hurt looks like but still in a bit of rough shape...my guess is she left to find Jarvis, found him and what ever happen...”He shakes his head “We can ask later but she likely didn't take enough supplies,let's go”

Taran frowns and looks to Jarvis, he nods and goes to pick him up, “We can...bury him at the graveyard in camp, its the right thing to do”

Aqua tenses at first and then relaxes, she knows those voices and so she lets herself pass out again.

==Few hours pass===

Aqua opens her eyes and sits up, the infirm as she frowns and places her face in her paws.

Taran walks up and nods “Hey...you feel better?”

Biff was not here but a fellow healer was, of course they check on Aqua as likely questions

Aqua frowns “I...don't know...had to find Jarvis, he went to track down other slavers..said he knew where a small camp was back down river...said he...took them out,  only a couple and freed this vole and rabbit, but the otters were not with them, likely sold a couple seasons ago or maybe dead, he admitted not going to a healer and...and deciding to turn around. I found him a couple days from Camp Willow...down river towards the sea...he was...ill, and//infection on his leg, a high fever..I did what I could but he died a few hours before I...ran into you  and Biff”Tears fall “I couldn't leave him....somewhere other than camp..he needed..needed home”

Taran frowns and nods “You, you got him home.”

The healer nods “You should let Aqua rest, rest is good for her and...and her unborn child”

Aqua  nods and sighs, a frown”Child?” Ok she had an idea, but not like she gained that much weight, and she had been tried and ill a couple times and figured it was the weather and getting use to Mossflwoer temperatures again, she frowns as she was likely maybe 2-3 months along most likely, she would have a dibbun....if all went well....in winter season sometime.

Taran blinks and looks at Aqua, a little concern for her, he then says “I am sure everyone here at Camp will...be here for you...your be fine...I mean..you and the returning otters survived so much and that takes a strong will and sprite...”

Aqua smiles a little”Thank you for your..kind words..”She lays down, tried but glad to be home again...maybe she shouldn't of ventured off to find Jarvis, but she did but she returned and made well on her promise of getting Jarvis home as well.

The healer shoos everyone out that is not a healer, it was getting late and the otter maid and an otter with a broken left foot, needed some time to rest, and oh great here comes someone with a...the healer sighs “A nail goes into the board not your paw.....get over here!~!!!” It would be one of those nights.....
