Log:

Camp Willow had a lot of activity today. The moles and Foremole were busy since they got here and have managed to fix the roof of the Mess Hall and build 2 small homes. The Order beasts helped to  better clear an area for some crops, it was not a large area but small, yet nice still where some wheat and corn will grow. The Abbey beasts helped chop wood and cut some boards, and helped to plant the new Hot Root plants they had brought over as well, things were looking good.

Aqua did make sure the herbal garden was ok, yes she knew how to tend it so go away. She did however welcome a chance to have help stocking the infirm, and did smile a little at the jars for keeping herbs fresher longer, those she had to admit were very welcome, even had help fixing some shelves and a cot or two in the infirm.

Taran walked around, he was likely the most comfortable with the abbey beasts as he grew up most of his life with them before learning he was born in Camp Willow and that Camp Willow was truly his home and he stayed at camp as a guard and more important cook.

Benar watched from where he stood and smiled, a quick chat with one of the order beasts and he walked around some looking around.”Things seem to be going well.”

Gorvenalus smiled as he stood and followed Benar “Yes...2 homes were just finished and this in almost a weeks time, and the base of a third will at least be started, some wood was chopped for later use and some boards made, a small area for crops cleared and wheat and corn started there, also they have an herbal garden they already had started, I checked and the infirm welcomed some supplies, and the new hot root plants as well as some they found and started are doing very well , also Camp Willow is doing very well for it's self.”

Ewan had been looking around and waves “Hey..some of the areas of the camp are interesting and some not so interesting, there is more swampy area that I thought...maybe even a small bit more in one area that was before, but that's ok...I did help one otter though since they like to keep a map of the place for themselves. There is also nice shady spots around the camp and...for the otters....a lot of water to swim in, not that I like so much water around”What he can't swim, he has tried to learn and keeps failing.

Aqua watches the beasts from off to the side has not really talked to many beasts the last few days, only when she had to.

Taran walks over to her “You ok Aqua, you seem upset lately, not in a grumpy way but a sad way...ok maybe grumpy sometimes”

Baxtor chuckles from by a tree”Taran...ya got to watch asking why moody around some beasts, and she is a female...for sure careful around them”

Benar listens to some updates and nods “That is good, our friends at Camp Willow should be fine this Winter season and they are still welcome to speak to the abbey if needed. I think we have brighten some sprites here. I plan to go to Ferravale in a couple days, the Champion is aware of this. I got word the Ferravale Tavern may be open when we get there, might be a nice welcoming thing and I am curious of it.”

Gorvenalus nods “It is to be named Redthorn Tavern, after Marek..Xander and Patch are in charge of it”He chuckles “I am  sort of interested on how that will go”

Ewan shrugs “Likely ok..its a tavern I know thar was one in Halyard but least this one wont be as...ummm...rough as Halyard, then Halyard is a sea port town and a bit bigger so you have a lot of sea beasts around it...this is inland by a ways..mostly vermin but some woodlander in Ferravale and Ferravale has the peace treaty with the abbey too, so there is that and that is good.”

Meanwhile all attention or maybe some is drawn to a scream and  a paw slapping someone in the face. Aqua stands beside Baxtor like...how did she move so fast and get to where they are...I mean Baxtor could of moved and if he is smart he will move now as those eyes blaze fire now.

Taran gasped, as does a few otters who looked that way. He backs up and frowns almost afraid to speak now, ok this is worse than a vermin horde invading, he finally finds his voice “Umm..I think I...oh look the abbey beasts need some help over here.. WAY over there”And he is quickly gone.

Baxtor blinks, why is he on the forest floor and why is his cheek so sore and swollen as he looks at Aqua and eeps, scooting back and bumps into a tree “Umm..Hi...lass..ummm...errrrr....”

And others look over cause its just what you do when its suddenly quiet and there is a crowd, the Abbot makes his way over quietly and frowns, he clears his throat “Alright every beast lets get back to what we were doing, that's good beasts.”

Gorvenalus just stays there quiet for now, might be a good idea to just be quiet for now, this is a Camp Willow Otter after all and not an abbey beast.

Ewan does speak, but to Baxtor “I heard its good advice to walk away and ..maybe avoid a beast ya angered for like...few hours...”His ears droop...oh that look the otter maid has “Few...days....seasons maybe?” Well maybe not seasons but days yeah.

Aqua just glared fire...its like she is trying to set the otter ablaze with her eyes if it was possible.She then starts to sob and just collapse onto the ground, stress...so much stress has gotten to her.

Baxtor eyes widen, he stands slowly and bolts, he is gonna keep his distance from the otter maid for a good couple weeks, that hare has such good advise!

Benar walks forwards and lays a paw on the otter maid's shoulder and asks in a gentle voice “Are you alright?”

Gorvenalus  has everyone back off “Ok lets get back to what ever was going on before this...go on..thank you, someone can maybe get Skipper, otherwise go about your day” He looks over as seems Benar can handle this and he does have some things to check on before the Abbey beasts get ready to head on to Ferravale.

Ewan frowns and goes to sit on a old stump, he has nothing to really do right now.

Aqua tenses and almost punches Benar but she lowers her paw before she does anything she would serious regret and just sniffs, then starts to sob into the abbot's robes loud uncontrolled sobbing, she likely needed a good cry...her mate is dead, she is with dibbun, she is angry,depressed...stressed and right now she could care less who sees her like this. She misses Jarvis..he was her world and now her world has crashed into thousands of broken little pieces!

Benar wraps his arms around the otter and lets her cry “Its ok to cry, what ever it is...let it out.”He can find out later about what happen to Jarvis.
