Things are fairly quiet on the second morning. Felix doesn't seem to be in a hurry to get moving at the break of dawn at any rate. It's nice to work at his own pace rather than one set by the Curia or anyone else for that matter.

Don't let that fool you, however. Once breakfast is out of the way, it's back to the task at hand.

"Oh, all kinds of samples." Raine pulled out a copy of the old journal with her name on it and flipped to an entry she'd made some time ago.

"You see, I've placed dirt samples on the page here, and I've set samples of the vegetation in the library so anyone can access them. And here, see, I've made sketches of the wildlife - what little we can find."

She smiled a little, proudly. "And I believe there are still saplings of the trees we found in the marshlands in the castle gardens that I brought back. So far, it's the only tree with edible fruit we've found out there."

Aradia leaned over to have a glance. Oh man, she would have to check that out soon. "Oh, cool! Do the other trees just not bear fruit, or...?"

[ruin_mania]

"None that we've found. In the castle gardens there are a few such as apples which are familiar, but it's far more likely they're imported rather than native."

She pondered this for a moment.

"Out of curiosity - and this may sound kind of off topic, but - what kind of stuff did you eat when you went on expedition? I mean, especially on a long one, you can't always carry the full amount of provisions. Not without using a sylladex."

[ruin_mania]

"I'd assume that's something similar to a Wing Pack - a device which can carry far more than its exterior would suggest?"

Dwarven technology was the best, really. Sadly, it didn't work in the Dead Zone.

"There are many kinds of travel food, such as dried meats, pemmican, lembas--just look in any of the many resources in the library. Now water is a but more difficult, depending on where you go, but as long as you carry a good filter you can drink from most sources."
