To the doctor, she instructed, “Do what’s necessary to help. And don’t. Deny me clearance. Again.” She left before Fifteen could protest. Once in her office, she prepared the monitor that would allow her to speak to him. “You wanted to speak to me?”

Forrest continued to his personal office. @Spark of Hope @SmilingPanda19 Maj takes the fishing pole and removes the line and the hook, tying the line between two trees in the jungle. He takes another bit of line and ties it between two trees, low to the ground at ankle height. Might slow down a nightmaw if one does end up coming after. Might trip, I guess. He ties as many as the line he has will allow, grudgingly using all of it to form a sort of semi-circle of line tied between trees with the other side of the circle to the beach. They live in the forest, right?
The Aspiring Archivist any pronouns Posted October 1, 2024 Posted October 1, 2024 Murr finished his makeshift raft as the sun set. It wasn't much, but it would float, and he didn't plan on taking it too far away from shore. Just far enough to be out of the jungle for the night, away from nightmaws. He considered the note that the new Aviar came with. Does that mean mental shielding? He hoped so. With tired effort, he pushed the raft out onto the water, then climbed on and pushed himself away with the most paddle-like stick he could find. It wouldn't steer well, but it could also push him in the shallower parts of the water.
Through the Living Wrath he/him Posted October 1, 2024 Posted October 1, 2024 (edited) 2 hours ago, The Aspiring Archivist said: He stooped down and used his hands to drink the water. Once he was satisfied, he got some vines from the jungle and went to try and work with the driftwood to get himself to another island, wishing he had any sort of weapon or tool. For now, a broken rock let him cut vines and chip at stray shoots coming off of branches. Murr felt better having cleaned off and drunk water, but thoughts of what he had done continued to haunt him, and blood still stained his clothes. He distracted himself by working and watching his Aviar fly, and for just a moment he could trick himself into thinking that things were okay.

Lord Spirit he/him Posted October 1, 2024 Posted October 1, 2024 Quote For the record, nightmaws are as big as trees, so… they also have an incredible sense of smell and can sense minds. Good luck

The training you were given comes to mind; the dangers of the arena get far worse at night. Creatures like Nightmaws stalk the jungles.

Magi @SpiritOfWrath The sun began to set, and Aerol knew she had to find shelter for the night. She found some dry sand on the beach and dug a wide hole using her hands and the oar. Wide enough for her to lie down in, but not too deep. It was almost completely dark by the time she finished. She then dragged the kayak with all the supplies over, put the supplies in the hole, lay down in it, and pulled the kayak over the hole. She heard Reef land on top of the kayak, flapping his wings and settling down on the blue plastic. Hopefully, with his mental shielding, nothing would find them in the night. Quote I'm... going to assume Aerol found a source of freshwater since no one answered me Aaaaand it's night! ye

Also who's the person in the Kayak you're mentioning? Almond's charachter has the orange kayak, Glass's has the blue...and I forget if I gave the green one to anyone. And Glass's character is on a whole different island.

If someone was dead already, then either someone was already killing, or a beast was loose. The next part, however was an act. “I… I w-wonder who it was.” He adopted a sad expression as he carried the vessel.
