2. In the remnants of a decaying log, you find the mother load. The largest mushrooms you've ever seen! And even more lucky, you remember these mushrooms and know they're good to eat! (+5 mushrooms)
4. Some of the swampland creatures got curious at the kin traipsing through their home. You seem to be making an awful lot of noise and they want you gone asap! They brought you some mushrooms to help speed the process along. (+3 mushrooms)
3.You seem to have stumbled into a large thicket of brambles. It takes you some time to pull all the thorns out of your sides and in the process of removing the thorns, you lose some mushrooms. (-2 mushrooms)

3.You seem to have stumbled into a large thicket of brambles. It takes you some time to pull all the thorns out of your sides and in the process of removing the thorns, you lose some mushrooms. (-2 mushrooms)
6. Seems like another group of swampland creatures doesn't like you stealing their mushrooms. They perform an elaborate trick of death defying skill while another swipes some mushrooms! (-1 mushroom)
Total Mushrooms: 5

Well. That was... most of a feast finished off, at least. But before she could continue, she needed some mushrooms. A lot of mushrooms.

Her first look out seemed successful enough. She kept an eye out for deadfalls, wood that had had time to begin to decay, and sure enough, she found the remains of a tree trunk, absolutely stuffed with large, edible mushrooms... and she spied an absolute beauty of a second crop. The only trouble was, she'd have to go through a thicket to get them.

As she considered how best to do it, she heard chittering-- and saw a squirrel retreating, leaving extra mushrooms in its wake. She tucked those away, and started wading through what felt like the thinnest part of the brambles. It was a simple enough matter to drag her way through-- harder to keep her hair and tail from snagging, but with a slow enough pace, she managed it just fine, plucking the next crop and putting them into her bag before carefully making her way back through. Afterwards, she checked herself over-- and noticed a hole in her bag.

She cursed, taking the time to quickly patch it, sliding in a sheaf of bark where the hole was to keep the remaining crop inside. But even so, somehow, when she returned to Bash, her crop was another mushroom lighter-- all the caught in the corner of her eye was a bird swooping away, almost smacking flat against a tree trunk before quickly redirecting and flying off.

Hmm. If she was going to offer a whole feast's worth of food, Worthy figured that she should probably also work at something to soothe indigestion. She knew a little bit about herblore, but the important part was to look for the right ingredients.

2.You find some odd shaped leaves. The smell musty and you aren't game enough to try but how much harm could they really do? (-2 potency)
4.Your pick some purple flowers. In the back of your mind, you swear you recall being warned about them as a child... (-5 potency)
5.You choose some aloe, soothing and cool. (+2 potency)
Odd: You have absolutely no idea what you're doing and you spill half your salve while mixing it! (-5 potency)
Potency: -10 [VOID]

Hmm. No, no. There was no way she could use this as a medicine. No way at all. She wasn't sure what she was doing-- how was this supposed to help someone feel better when she was scared to put it in her own mouth? She tucked her ears back, putting it aside and deciding against showing this embarrassing failure off. She could simply try again later.

Well. That attempt at ""medicine"" was embarrassing, and Worthy just wanted to put that back behind her. There was one last thing that she hadn't yet tried- there was a cave she'd been directed to known for having plentiful gem clusters, though one had to work their way somewhat deep underground to find what they needed.

There was one last thing that she hadn't yet tried- there was a cave she'd been directed to known for having plentiful gem clusters, though one had to work their way somewhat deep underground to find what they needed.

She followed Bash's instructions to the mouth of the cave, looking at its forlorn, yawning mouth with trepidation before finally walking her way in. There was a fork fairly early-- should she go left or right? She turned towards the left, working her way a bit further down before she bumped against the wall, then startling away from whatever it was she'd brushed against.

Did she feel something move? Something rumble? Her breath quickened with her pulse, and she strained to make sense of things. She just needed to continue, find her way deep enough to find something worth bringing back. She took a steadying breath, in through her nose, and then slowly back out, then another, before she continued on her way.

B-bump. Her heart was practically in her throat, the dark felt like it was closing in on her. B-bump. She took another step, feeling a clod of dirt roll unevenly underfoot, practically tripping her. B-bump! She startled as she felt something tumbling, a rumble in the cave that signaled DANGER as loud as she could think. The doe turned tail, practically skipping as she scrambled for the cave entrance. She'd bring nothing back with her this time.

4. You seem to be searching for hours. You're not sure if you even remember the way back to the exit. All hope is fading. But then you see it! The biggest gemstone you've encountered so far. It's a struggle, but you manage to collect it all. (+5 gems)
The first thing she had encountered was a giant gem! What a find! Several smaller ones came out when she worked at digging the largest crystal cluster out, but out the whole thing came-- and the cave didn't even shake this time! She was off to a decent start, this time. If she could just keep this streak going, she'd do wonderfully.

Oh. Ohhhh no. Oh no, oh no oh no. As soon as she'd finished pulling the cluster from the wall, she felt something shudder and start to come loose. She turned with a quick step-- and paused-- she'd felt a tremor as soon as she took that step. Running was no good, then. She had to be careful, or she'd cause a cave-in around herself... she had to be quiet, and calm.

Deep breaths. Deep... deep breaths. She tried to steady herself, to still her quivering body as she focused on drawing a long, slow, stuttering breath in, then letting it back out. She just had to stay calm... and now that she was working her way towards that, she could take a step. She raised one hoof delicately, then put it down... and caused not the slightest vibration when she did so. She took another careful tiptoe, then another, on and on until she stood in view of daylight.

There wasn't much cave left. She could see the light.

She was ashamed to admit she bolted.

She was never. EVER. Going to step foot in another cave again. Nothing that would have ground above her, definitely not, never again, not even once. But she... still had some last things to do to prepare for the feast, and maybe she could work her way back up to improving her skills in combat.

A soothing potion... a soothing potion. Worthy wanted to create something to help with upset stomachs or hangovers, so her choice of ingredients was clear. She skipped over the stronger-tasting flowers, eschewed the strange berries she saw, zoning in on the river she'd been getting delicious, cold water from, and following it towards its source.

It stemmed from a spring, cold and mineral-rich, as pure as any water she'd ever tasted-- this would provide a good base for her experiments. After that, she followed the river down, paying attention to the plants as she tried to remember remedies given to her in the past.

Seaweed! She could put seaweed into it-- enough that the mixture would be cold and almost gel-like. Something soothing, and made  only from fresh, clearly-edible ingredients-- she was onto something here.

She worked the seaweed against a turtleshell, using the water as she coaxed a thin, gel-like substance from the weed, and then discarding the pulp from the water to start again, until she had something viscous and cool.

She took a sip of it herself, before bringing it to bash. "Here, this is a curative," she said, tilting the shell towards him.
