"Heh."   She mutters, picking up the doll.    "Cool."   She puts it in her satchel, then continues through the forest.

After much thought, and really chewing it over. He realized that if the time were to come to off of one group member, he'd be it. Seeing as how his buddies had already abandoned him. He breaks the sticks he carried to camp, making them small enough to fit in his bag while leaving enough space. After this he'd start off in a direction away from anyone else, it was time to find his own path in life.

The dark skinned woman, glances at the squirrels, then searches for a large stick or stone before turning towards the squirrels. "We need to eat, correct? Squirrels are food," she says, glancing towards the man with her as if she'd asked a question and was waiting for an answer.

"Woah..." he mutters. That was surprising, but he did not saw it as horrible or scary. It was strange, otherwordly, and it felt good, in a weird way.

But he has to continue, maybe they drugged him to get him to sleep before bringing him there, and those were just allucinations of the drug. Yes, that is. "Let's go".
First he'll peek to all sides, in case if there is anything, and then slowly, carefully walk up to the syringe, and take it, just in case.
He takes one of the rocks, and uses it to mark in the big boulder the direction where he thinks the center is, and the other one where he thinks the lake is.

((I'm undecided here, Jakers, could you roll a desicion for me here? If not it's ok, just tell me and i edit. Like, if it's X i advance towards the lake, and if it's Y i try to come back to the clear in the center of the world)) It's hard to decide, either to continue exploring that lake or go back and report. Whatever he decides, he will do. Also, any path he will take, he will start marking trees with the rock to know the path.
Love and peace, art and cats.

While the other guy is talking about using the daffodils for rope, The short woman spots the necklace and quickly slips it away into her pocket (or her pack if there's no pockets) unnoticed.

"Perhaps you should try that, given it's either try to catch food somehow or starve to death, I could help gather any materials needed, maybe even help setup multiple traps to improve our chances of catching something." She says almost matter of factly.

??? looks slowly from the squirrels to the woman. "Yes, I think so." He quickly goes to search for a hefty stone, and readies it to throw at one of the squirrels.

"Well certainly, I suppose we may as well try." He said as he begun to pick some of the daffodils and then afterwards attempted to fashion some sort of string out of them.

??? Rhodri 10/10 9/10 10/10

You go up to the bee hive, and attempt to communicate with them.
"Bzzzt.... bzzz bzzz bzzz! Bzzzzzzzzzztttt!"

It doesn't work. Perhaps you should shape up on your Beenese... or whatever language bees speak. On the bright side, the bees still seem to be docile, buzzing about happily to harvest nearby flowers. You decide to press on through the forest.

Going further, you're sure to pick up any rocks on the way as you carry on. The occasional tree is here and there... hmm? You stop at the sight of something interesting. A huge tree, much larger than the others, stands firm with a richer shade of brown in its wood. What's more, there seems to be a little window of some sort coming from the huge tree, with a faint light emitting from it.

Confused, you wonder if anybody's home in this literal tree house.
2 Medium Rocks Acquired!
3 Small Rocks Acquired!

<===========>

??? Stopsignal 10/10 9/10 10/10

Although you didn't know why or how it was there, you bend down and take the syringe. Who knows, it could come in handy.

Empty syringe acquired!

You also use a rock to mark the locations of the lake and the centre, so you won't get lost. You carve arrows onto the large boulder; knowing now that you aren't going to get confused when you return to this spot. The chance of getting lost is significantly reduced around this area.

You then decide to explore the lake, following the general direction of it. Birds tweet and sing their daily songs around you, and the warmth of the sun combined with the gentle wind is relaxing; you were lucky it didn't get cold out here, especially with the little clothes you were all wearing.

You come to a stop, looking over a huge well of glistening water in front of you. The trees thin out less sparsely, leaving long, swaying grass around the clear water of the lake. It's fairly large, so large that you're just able to see the other side. As well as that, the area around this lake seems to thin out into a grassland. There are also long reeds around the lake; these look sturdy and could be perfect for cordage.

You then notice that a male figure seems to be holding a fishing rod in the distance by the side of the lake, a wide hat covering most of his face. You'd need to get closer to go and see other features about him... but he hasn't noticed you yet.
<===========>

??? Mrnocamera 10/10 9/10 10/10

As you reach down and touch the doll, you suddenly jump in alarm as it disintegrates into some sort of green light, and before you know it, the green light seems to flood into your body!

After a while of the strange humming and the flashes of light, you open one eye curiously, wondering if the onslaught was over. All the light was gone now... and there was nothing left of the doll. Although you had a slight headache... you didn't actually feel any pain or negative feeling from the weird green light. In fact... you feel more skilled somehow!

First Aid Skill Increased by 1!

You continue on through the forest, wondering what else could be found. Unfortunately, this stretch of forest is nothing out of the ordinary, it seems. Just trees... and stuff... hm. There were a few white butterflies flapping around some sort of bluish flower, though. One of the white butterflies settles on your nose for a few seconds. Nature seemed to be quite friendly around this place, at least.
<===========>

??? Dusty Trails 10/10 9/10 10/10
??? Hibou 10/10 9/10 10/10

Both of you manage to get your hands on one of the hefty stones around the area, and both of the squirrels are still happily running around eachother in the grass, oblivious to your plans. It's sort of... morally hard to bring yourself to do this...

The question was, who was going to do the deed, if at all? The squirrels are roughly 15ft away, so it shouldn't be too hard of a throw.

You both give eachother a look, nodding. You were both going to try and do the deed at the same time. You lift your rocks, and give them a good throw towards a squirrel each.

??? Dusty Trails 1d20 To-Hit | VS | Squirrel 1d20-4 (Surprised!) To-Dodge
??? Dusty Tails: 19 | Squirrel: 8.
SUCCESS! (Large)

??? Hibou 1d20 To-Hit | VS | Other Squirrel 1d20-4 (Surprised!) To-Dodge
??? Hibou: 12 | Squirrel: 7.
Success! (Medium)

You both perform a successful throw, sending both your rocks soaring at each of the squirrels. You wince a little as you hear the crunching of their bones, along with pained squeaks. Blood splatters against the forest floor, and their happy playing comes to an end.

The forest becomes silent for a moment; birds fly away.

But hey, at least both the squirrels died before they even knew what hit them.
2 x Dead Squirrels are here.

The female of the two pockets the necklace. As she picks it up, it feels somewhat light in her hand... almost as if it weighed nothing. Your white cotton pants do have two shallow pockets; small enough to store the little necklace in.

With some of the daffodils, the male gets to work on tying them into a binding. With ample enough manual dexterity, you're able to make some cordage using the daffodil stalks. It isn't sturdiest material around, but it'll have to do. And at least it smells nice.

Weak Cordage Rope (Small) Acquired!

There are still quite a few daffodils around if you ever needed to make more. It wouldn't last forever, though.
<===========>

??? yonsisac 10/10 9/10 10/10

You pick a leaf from one of the trees, wrapping the mushrooms carefully in them and storing them away in your satchel. They seem to ooze a reddish liquid as you pick them from the tree, leaving stains on the trunk.

+6 Red Mushrooms Acquired!

Yikes! You narrowly dodge out the way as another boar comes running along, bursting past you and going the same path as the previous one did. What was the meaning of this? They weren't attacking you... it was almost like they were running away from something.
<===========>

??? ajwilli1 10/10 9/10 10/10

Deciding to go alone in this world, you pick up the 15 sticks you gathered, breaking them into smaller pieces for easier storage and taking them for yourself.

-15 Sticks Removed from the Stockpile
+30 Small Sticks Acquired!

Finally, you set out in a direction the furthest away from any of the others went. Everybody has gone in all sorts of directions, but you're pretty sure nobody's been this way before. You begin to travel this world, alone.

The shade of the trees looms over you, yet the reassuring flowers here and there around the forest make the start of your path quite... captivating. From your first stretch of land, you stop to admire a bush that holds bright yellow berries. You weren't sure if they were edible or not... but they did smell pretty good.

"Going alone, huh?" A voice behind you says. Turning around, you furrow your brow in confusion as a very tall and gracious female figure, her hair short and golden, with a pair of large tan feathered wings at her back watching you with a somewhat interested expression. She's wearing some plain, brown burlap clothing, with a pouch of unknown contents around her waist. Her skin is tanned, and her eyes are golden like her hair.

"Going alone's always been my favourite way of doing things." She says, folding her arms as she looks down at you curiously; you'd guess she was about 6"7. "Less restricting. More... freedom..." She whispers. She then picks one of the berries on the bush, pops it into her mouth, and spreads her wings. "Anyways, gotta fly. I'll keep my eye on you... you and your group seem different from the others. My brother probably already told you that. Perhaps we'll meet again some day."

And with that, she launches from the ground, piercing through the cover of leaves. You can see her gliding figure for a few seconds, before she's gone. You're unsure what the heck just happened... but at least you now knew the berries were edible... right?

You set about collecting some resources for the camp, grabbing what you could in terms of small, flexible sticks and plant fibres that could potentially be used for cordage. You figured that you'd need some of these resources later.

You notice one of the men of the group pack up the sticks he collected earlier, before he heads of alone into the woods without saying a word. Was he going alone out there? Either way, his figure disappeared into the forest now.

+Small Pile of Flexible Sticks Added to Stockpile!

SURROUNDING AREA
>Rhodri - Behind you leads to the beehive. You're starting to lose your bearings of the dry grass patch a little bit. You're around some sort of huge tree with a windowish carving inside it. Was somebody home?
>Lorkins/Caconym - Behind you leads to the center of the world. You're in an area of the forest, by a patch of daffodils and a rabbit hole.
>Hibou/Dusty Trails - Behind you leads to the center of the world. You're in an area of the forest, by a luminant bluish flower surrounded by white butterflies.
>Mrnocamera - Behind you leads to the crater where the doll was. You've broken sticks, so you know how to get back to the dry grass patch. There's not much of interest here apart from a bluish flower.
>Stopsignal - Behind you leads to the clearing with a large boulder. You've marked the boulder, so you know how to get back to the dry grass patch. You're by a vast lake, with a grassland surrounding it. A man fishing is visible here.
>yonsisac - Behind you leads to the center of the world. You're in an area of the forest, nothing much to note here other than some boar tracks. Blood red mushrooms grow around a tree here, also.
>The rest are all standing in a large, circular patch of dry grass that is the center of the world. Thick forests surround you, but nobody has explored them yet. 3 medium sized rocks, and a small pile of plant fibres + flexible sticks are scattered on the ground; two of the men collected them. The pink suited man's empty pink teacup and saucer is here.
>ajwilli1 - Behind you leads to the dry grass patch, but you feel like you won't need to go back there unless you want to regroup. There is a bush of yellow, most likely edible berries here. The bush probably has about 18 berries.

The lake is wonderful, and he thinks it'd be a good place to camp, maybe later he could tell the other people.
Oh, wait, a man...

Hmm. The man looks like he still did not saw him, so the bearded man thinks that he will approach slowly, then sit by him, and say "how is the fishing?".

However he is not dumb, he kniws it could be dangerous. It's not the best weapon, but he grabs the pointiest rock he has and hides it in his hand, just in case.

(Hey if the colour is the speech colour, I should be red, not brown.)

The woman sticks her hands in her pockets, and looks around at the butterflies, smiling.   "Hm."
She then starts to head back to the 'main' area, picking up the longer sticks she's broken off trees/just finds on the ground.

Rhodri feels up the tree for some sort of hidden door.

If that doesn't work, he'll try to climb the tree or nearby trees to look through the window.


Oh! And he'll use some grass to bind a stick and rock together, creating a tool that can bash things. Or as a crude axe. Or pickaxe, if sharp enough. Or cudgel... It's a rock  attached to a stick, it has a lot of uses if you have enough imagination.

The quiet woman was simply laying down against the ground unlike the rest of them. Frantically searching would be a waste of her energy and probably a waste of time too. However as she rested and no one really came back with any big findings she decided that she'd have to take matters into her own hands. What a pain in the ass. Her crystal blue eyes scan around after she gets up and her fine ears listen for the sound of rushing water or water in general, searching for a river or lake, as that would be the best spot for a camp.
