She comes out, She's looking tired, dark circles under her eyes, She's
moving like she's sore. You could see on her arms and stuff where those
scars were before just completely gone. Now, Oh, usually when I don't
sleep well, it's because of the noise. Was it out there? Did
you see it? Oh? You said, of a bitch. This whole
shack is just that exercise of getting us to do lies. Shack flies from
what I could tell. Look the big, big wolf. That explains it.
Sometimes I dream that it's a wolf. I had the wolf dreams last
night. She like shivers and rubs her arms without even approaching the window.
She's like, what did it leave out there? It always brings something here,
it taunts me. I'll peek at the window again. Five bodies of
the fish people I think you were talking about earlier. She walks up to
the window and look at the fins on that one. That's one of the
ones I saw yesterday with Octimer Jai all runs down. You don't say,
what a coincidence must have been close to us. Well, now maybe you'll
believe me about the herbs. Oh, absolutely, yeah, Ricardo did not
have a doubt about the herbs. It is appreciated. Let's go out there
and see if there's anything useful on the bodies. At least any of you
guys need armor. I have practice in making leather from their skin. I
do have a good old naked zero on every spot of my body. Oh
yeah, yeah, homie, you need some help, you need you need
help? Wow, I have leather armor, so I probably all set to
make a helmet out of that stuff. If anything, I'll probably need the
material to repair what I have. I mean, your stuff is patched up
pretty good because of what Octimer did for you. But okay, so I
can, I can, I can mark fat as I have that armor back.
Okay, thank you. I'm helping head protections. Sounds smart, guess
the only thing I don't have. She goes out to get to work,
or any of you guys going to accompany her. Yeah, sure, all
right. The three bodies that were unceremoniously dumped in a pile, the first
group. She approaches one of them as one of those odd stone looking knives
embedded in its skull. I don't use this, right, guys. It's
definitely his too, because his sheath is empty. Also, his arm is
broken in about six places, so it might have been still in his hand
when his skull or a little wobble. She yanks that out and she's like,
oh yeah, you got to wrap these things. But they're very sharp.
Ricardo, you recognize them as being made out of coral. Yoh wow,
what that's interesting. Interesting. I might take one of these and replace
my I think I broke my crock tooth knife, didn't I that sounds or
I break my iron knife on the crock and I replaced it with a crop
tooth. You broke your stone knife out of the crock. But yeah,
I mean there's all of these guys have one, so anybody who wants one
can take it. Oh yeah, sure, free knife. That's saying.
Yeah, if they're more sturdy than the croc toothed dagger, sounds like it's
worth of having. Yeah, So basically, like, keep the same stats
as the croc tooth dagger, but they are in fact not fragile. We
might have fish leather in the very near future. I gets, Oh,
you're gonna have plenty of fish leather in the near future. It's kind of
gross to eat these guys, but sometimes you have to. I don't know,
it's up to you. I mean looks like meat back on the menu.
I'm gonna see how it smells once it's cooked, because like if it
just I'm gonna trust my body to know about it. Does that make sense?
Like sometimes you just know I'll go hunting today against my better judgment.
Yeah, you're gonna have to go on your own because Nalo's gonna be skinning
these guys from me and trying to start prepping the leather for the rest of
the day. Better if she rests anyway on, Yeah, she couldn't possibly
go hunting twice in a row while she's skinning one of the fishmen. To
Ricardo, I still wish I'd been able to see it. Though It's been
there as far back as I can remember, and I've never been able to
see it. It's oddly frustrating. How long have you been here? Do
you know? No, I mean it's very hard to tell time. Do
you know, Hasha? Ricardo put this, How did you run into the
wizard or sorcer for the runs here? What were you doing before the valley?
I was very young. I woke up probably where you did with a
few other people. I didn't even know about the Wizard at all until some
of them told me about him. I don't know what happened to the others.
Oh that's a bad side. Concardo tries hard not to make a face.
We traveled through the jungle for three or four weeks, mostly hiding and
trying to avoid the wildlife. And then we went to bed one night,
and when I woke up, they were all gone, sad. Sorry that
happened to you. She shrugs, and she's like, I actually don't mind
living on my own. It's nice to have people to talk to. But
they all leave eventually. Ricardo doesn't give a shrugged that I was sorry to
say. I do have plans of getting out of here. I will have
to leave soon. I hope you make it. None of the others have
gotten past the things you don't like going over there, so have you?
I guess have you checked that? Do? They left? One day?
Isn't that obvious? One day, when I was trying to collect herbs,
I got a little too close. There were smells. I have a good
nose, a strong sense of smell. I could smell flowers from inside of
that fortress of his, So I thought just creep in and see what I
could see. But those things attacked me. One of them clawed me across
the belly, and I thought I was going to die. I blacked out,
and when I woke up, I was back here. Was there any
sign of the flying thing? No much to think about their deadly opponents.
They move very fast. Is it surrounded by lotsa or is it more land
to the fortress? If you approach from this area, that then it's land
all the way. Okay, small miracles, RECORDO guesses. She finishes cutting
and just peels probably ninety percent of this thing's hide off in one go.
Wow as you do. Do you ever think about leaving? Or is the
north too much of an opponent for one woman? I don't mind it here,
Honestly, I was never comfortable. I barely remember life in the city,
but I remember not liking it out here. I'm lucky. Nothing comes
too close with the beast around, and I'm the only one who knows how
to avoid it. Every so often I have to fight the fishmen, but
I've never been seriously injured. She's gotta know, right, she don't know,
She's gotta no. I'm letting her say it first. If she knows,
I'm not fucking around with that. That's not Ricardo's business. It might
be Ricardo's business very soon before right now? Yeah, uh well, God
bless her. I guess she's out here living her best life, like I
guess after Like she takes a would you like any help with the next one?
Give us up, busy, let me show you how to do it.
She's like excited. That's cute. I find myself wondering what happens to
this place if we do take that wizard out? Is this place gonna still
exist? And if not, what happens to everything in it? Like you
created a pocket to mention, I think it's like the ecosystem is still gonna
be here. It's just gonna be. There's less idiots wandering through dying to
apes, you know. Fair. Also I just want to get out,
also true, Yeah, I've been here too long. I want to leave.
Ricardo does not give a shit about the creator ecosystem of Valley, because
the valley wants Ricardo dead. Well, the stresson I'm thinking about it is
I would hate for Nala here, for example, to just suddenly be back
somewhere where like hundreds of years have gone by, and she doesn't like it
there. Sure, I'm probably overthinking it, but like, what would you
do. I'm one of the werewolf cook whatever she did when she came here,
adapt and probably eat a bunch of people. But that's not our problem.
Yeah yeah, until it expressly becomes our problem, it's not our problem
right now. She's a smart girl. She survived for how long in this
dank ass would eaten fish? She'll figure it out. Special thanks to Toys
