Dragon days of August
π§ WHO: Barbara and anyone who wants to do things with Barbara!
βοΈοΈ WHAT: Open log for August, incl. animal culling and Don't Treep quests
π WHEN: August, various times in the month
πΊοΈ WHERE: Avalon
β οΈ WARNINGS: Animal violence
a. Let's see how far dragon whispering extends π‘
[The zombies are gone, and the damage they left remains. Not wanting to leave a job half-done, Barbara is down at the farm. She might have a shovel, burying the remains of the undead in safe spots, nodding to you to pick up one yourself. Or she's shouldering new wood along to fix the fenceposts. Or she's flagging you down to help her drag a wooden trough to a new pen. Rather than her usual armor and chainmail, today she's in hardwearing work clothes.
You might also find her helping with the animals. Barbara isn't an animal mage, but she knows how to be quiet and patient, and might tell you to stand ready at the pen gate while she tries to entice a horse or a sheep back towards it.]
b. Invasive species π‘
[Barbara's noticed how crowded the woods are. More than once she's woken up to see something that isn't her moogle familiar looking back at her. So it's no surprise that something else has decided that all this bounty represents a free lunch.
Not wanting a scorpion-tailed crab as a neighbor, she's ony too eager to help get rid of the Carcinuses]
Carcninus dangerous. Prepared?
c. But how does not a dragon work
[So. Horses.
Barbara's been avoiding this. But it also takes a long time to walk everywhere she wants to go. And who knows, she might be able to fight from horseback. So it's about time she learned how to ride properly.
Being Barbara, she's going to try it on her own before she actually talks to the man about officially getting lessons. If she can deal with dragons, she can deal with something that doesn't even have sharp teeth, right?]
Good horse. Here.
[She knows that they like apples, apparently. So she's got a bag full of them by her feet, approaching a likely-looking mare.]
d. Wildcard!
[None of these suit your fancy? Hit me up by PM or at
compassinks and we can work something out!]
