“It’s a Long Way Up!” (The IRL-Skills RP)

The Stormfather continues to stand off to the side in moderate silence, muttering to himself. After a few minutes, he begins integrating himself into the group and helping to build the fire. He quickly realizes, however, that there are enough people working on that for him to not need to help, and begins walking in a random direction that might lead him to a trail to the top.

Dray, absorbed in his wood chopping, doesn’t notice you leaving.

We do probably need more people working - building three fires from scratch is a lot of work.

The Stormfather looks at the cliff, trying to gauge if there's any possibility of climbing it or getting over it.

Yes, but I know little about making fires.

There is not lol. Not right now, at least.

It'd just be easier to go up the path, anyway.

"Wait, I wonder..." Glass thought for a moment.

"The map appeared in my backpack when I started wondering where I was," she said, "and similar things seems to be happening to everyone else, when they need tools and such. Then you asked where it was, and I didn't have it anymore..." She eyed the girl's backpack.

She unzipped it and pulled out the map. “This is kinda trippy.”

"Whoa, crazy."

Glass sneezed for no reason at all.

"Well, we have the map now. You wanted to look at it?"

“Y-yeah, right. Just to get an idea of what we might encounter.”

"Makes sense." She peaked over the girl's shoulder to look at the map. "Looks like just a really long path for a while."

She looked back and smirked. “Really? I was unaware of that information,” she snarked. 

“In all seriousness though, this is very vague. We won’t know for sure what we’ll face until we face it.”

"What? It's true. It like just came out of the backpack." Elan says, "On that note, why does everyone get a backpack and all I get is a fanny pack?"

"It just kinda showed up on me. This thing is tiny. There's no way it could fit, like, an ancho-" Elan falls on the floor as a massive weight pulls him down. He unzips the fanny pack and a massive steel anchor falls out. 

He looks at it deadpan, zipping up his fanny pack again. "Noted."

"Um... yeah yeah we'll go with that." Elan keeps walking pretending like nothing happened.

Ooookay fine I won't spontaneously summon anchors out of nowhere.

But you never know when you need an anchor. Seems to me like it could be pretty helpful.

The Stormfather walks back towards the main group. "Uh... Everyone, just so we all know, there is a path there that might lead to the top, and the signal fires might be a bit more visible higher up." He says nervously.

I mean technically Elan wasn't supposed to be able to do that, so just know for future reference that only like, tools and stuff can come out. Things that you can use to solve a specific problem, not random objects.

thanks lol

Noted.

No more spontaneous anchors unless absolutely necessary.
