Survival skills class -- desert edition -- open

[nofarplaneyet]

Characters: Auron and anyone else who wants to make sand angels

Location: Desert right outside Death City

Rating: S for sandy

Time: Feb. 17 around 2 p.m.

Description: Auron teaches a few students how survive in a giant sandbox. With an assist from his partner





Yesterday's mission had tired out Auron, but not enough that he couldn't teach. He waited at the gates of Death City for the few students who seemed interested for a short field trip outside the walls.

((OOC: Comment on Auron's parts of the lecture and also have your own threads wherever. Threadjack!)

I know, and sometimes they're fast. [Thinks.] So, setting a second pit up just in case it rains might be good idea though right?

[nofarplaneyet]

Only if you have enough material for it. But more than one is good.

[ninjainviolet]

[Nods. It would be silly to carry extra material for water when she'd lose more water just by doing so.]

Are there other ways to find water? [Sometimes things happen and you have to act fast, since there aren't always cacti around and you don't have time to dig a hole.]

[nofarplaneyet]

If you're lucky and can find an oasis. Finding plants that store water is the best bet.

[ninjainviolet]

[She looks up at him.]

Have you ever been lucky and found an oasis?

[nofarplaneyet]

*shakes head* You almost need a native guide to help you there.

[ninjainviolet]

And we don't have anyone like that here, do we? [She's beginning to miss her Water Cards even more at this point.]

Does the desert around here have any caves? [She remembers how cool and damp some of the caves back home were.]

[nofarplaneyet]

I haven't explored that much of it so I don't know. I could ask Shibusen for that information.

[ninjainviolet]

[Nods.]

That would be useful to know. And to be honest, I'd rather know before going out there instead of trying to find them on my own. [If done correctly, traveling can be easier if caves are used as planned shelters.]
