The World Of Bones - Succession World - Honey Badger!
So, Snow White figured the best way to head towards Bodicewheat was to follow the river part of the way. It would supply her with fresh water and maybe spinach. Too bad she didn’t know how to fish or set traps to capture bigger animals.
When the sun was low in the sky she ate some spinach, drank from the river, and made a fire. Sadly she had found no source of new food. Outside of some ravens which she knew would be too small to butcher.
Of course she woke up in the middle of the night - early morning really - and ate some spinach and drank more water. Then went back to sleep after restarting the fire.
She slept two more hours and then was off again. After checking the map.
She headed east from the river. There would be another river on the way to Bodicewheat. Likely the same river. It did twist and turn a lot. On the way there she kept an eye open for food and did gather some more spinach.
Sadly, there was a long section between the two rivers which had nothing. It WAS The Desert of Equaling after all.
She did encounter some ostriches but they moved too fast for her to even think of attacking them for their meat.
At one point a badger ran up, attacked her dog, and then ran off.
Snow White was too slow to do anything about it and refused to let go of the dog. The dog wasn’t in good shape.
Then the badger came rushing back and this time, as it attacked the dog, she attacked it.
By the time the badger was killed Nil, the dog, was worse shape.
Snow White butchered the corpse of the badger, picked up seven pieces of meat, and moved on.
There wasn’t much else to see. Some birds of prey, a few desert animals, sand.
She finally made it to the second river. Or the first one just changing directions. And washed off the blood and vomit from the badger fight. At least she was closer to Bodicewheat.
As she moved northeast she found a hamlet named Hazystoked.
She checked her map again to see where Bodicewheat in relation to the hamlet. It seemed to be due east from the settlement.
She finally approached what she thought might be the site. She walked towards the first building. What would she find?
An empty building was NOT what she thought she would find. She would need to explore the site more and find the bandits.
Would they put up a fight? Would they run away? Were they a tourist trap?
