Do you keep a fire burning around here?

@Host

Julia: We try to keep a small one going when we can so we can get the water heated when we need it, but not always. Why do you ask?

I’ll use them carefully and favour getting up close.

@Balance

Kleid: *Holds back a chuckle.* You can do that if you're up to it, but I was mainly saying that in the context that birds are harder to hit then most mammals in this forest.

<Snipped quote by Darlit Glitch>

I'm just highly experienced with them, that's all.

@CuttleFish

Kleid: Huh. I was hoping for more of an answer, but that works just as well. *We stop for a moment before me and some of the other hunters spread out and start messing with things on the ground, with some of us holding up a rabbit or two and others making a quick handsign.*

Makes sense. Should I spare my arrows, then? *Slows down as well*

@Balance

Kleid: You probably should, since we don't always have the supplies to make more.

<Snipped quote by Darlit Glitch>

Nope

@CuttleFish

Kleid: Oh? I figured you must have some experience considering how comfortable you seem to be with your choice of hunting tools.
*Points to the knives and spears you picked out.*

Out of how many people?

@Host

Juila: I don't really know specifically how many people live here, but the best guess I've heard is around 172 or so.
*We end up outside a kinda hot and fairly humid room, which explains why the humidity increased the closer we got.*
This is our heating room, which we use both for keeping this place warm during the winter and for making hot water that we use to clean things.

How many people do you admit a week, usually?

@Host

Julia: There's on average about a dozen or so small injuries and one or two larger ones on normal, calm week with nothing going on.

*Goes with you*

@Host

*As we head down the hallway, it starts getting warmer and a bit humid.*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Darlit Glitch>

*Some birds fly above us, squawking; one of them is an owl; I look up and then look back forward quickly* I’ll keep a close eye. Are we hunting birds?

@Balance

Kleid: Maybe if we had materials to spare, but they don't really have much on them that's useful outside of feathers. We mainly focus on hunting stuff like deer, with rabbits being a nice alternative at times.

<Snipped quote by Darlit Glitch>

Keith, you?

@CuttleFish

Kleid: Kleid. You ever gone hunting before Keith? *I start moving slower and more deliberately as we get farther into the forest, with the other hunters doing the same.*

Let’s do this. East, right?

@Balance

Kleid: *Nods and starts walking towards the forest* Yea, though we won't see much wildlife until we're a bit deeper into the tree line.

<Snipped quote by Darlit Glitch>

I'd rather blame my own skill than just saying the fauna did not want to comply.

@CuttleFish

Kleid: I like your spirit. What's your name by the way?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Darlit Glitch>

Is this the way?

@Host

Julia: *moves through the door and into the hallway on the other side.* This main hallway runs through most of the building, so it's the best way to get around. If you'll follow me. *turns to the right and starts making my way down.*
