Where: The Woods
Warnings: Animal death, gore, occultism

[Will would never consider himself a hunter- for all his adventures, he was always more a city boy than not. He COULD snare a coney or shoot down a bird for a meal. But full deer hunting was something he was not that experienced in.

But he had an ace, if what he was told on the journals was true. But that just made this all the more dangerous.

He was bundled head to toe in winter gear the sad-looking shopkeep had provided, his armor on under it and his bow unslung]


So 'pparently these deer are meat eaters, so I gotta package of roast steak here- [He pats a cloth bag on his hip. It has a bit too much give to be anything but wrapped raw meat. And if the brothers have a decent sense of smell they can likely smell it out right.] - so we can try to bait it out. This time'a year a fresh kill outta be tempting for all kinds of beasties.

You two still up for this?

[ Clive will actually glance back to those words, curious about how Joshua will handle this. Not that he particularly wanted his brother to ever have to learn skills such as this, but here it will come in handy.

He himself knows enough to get by, but he has a feeling Jote did much of the hard work for Joshua. On her own will of course. ]

[ The noises, indeed. Joshua makes a face, but drops his cloak from his face so that he can focus with both hands.

It's a disgusting job, and very... wet, but he follows Will's movements, cutting each organ free from its tethers as he pulls them out. Without complaint! Look at him go. ]

[ Yeah he will never get used to those noises. It's different hearing it in the midst of battle, but it's always so...

Yugh. ]


All right there, brother?

[ There's a tone to his voice that says better you than me. ]
