Story

There seems to be no flint or steel around, but there is some tinder.  A faint buzzing can be heard in the distance.  Aldrec shivers as a chill rolls through the forest.  There are a few embers left on the firespot.  A quick adding of tinder and some blowing causes a small fire to spring to life.  Balthier checks the lashings on the platform, tightening a few, and ensuring that the vine can continue to hold up the house.

  1. I suggest that we try and figure out if this is an island or a peninsula that we are on. I head to the beach and begin to walk around it, keeping a close eye out for anything interesting or edible. Hopefully, I will find more clams or even a place suitable for fishing.

  2. While Balthier looks around the area, I familiarize myself with the mechanisms that hold the platform together. I also place some green, oily, leaves on the fire to make thick smoke as a signal so Balthier can find his way back more easily.
