Live prey, huh. Is that your way of saying this isn't going to be any old relaxing trip out in the desert?
[ Of course it isn't - they'd wandered out here in search of anything but, though that's not going to stop Claude from shooting a grin her direction. After all, testing arrows means using a variety of targets and Cadens' outskirts will provide it. The wooden post will do as the first one considering it looks like several others have tested weapons upon it in between the heat and sun taking their toll, so what's a few more?
It's good enough for Claude to reach for his bow to unstrap it from his back, though he thinks better for it and retrieves a handful of arrows from his quiver next so Petra can connect his descriptions from the walk out here with the actual products marked with different feathers for fletching, painted marks near the points, and different arrowheads for their different categories. There's also a list stashed away in his satchel with components and results, but this is easier to start with. ]
Here's some of the ones I have ready so you can see if there's any you like. It'll help me narrow down which ones are worth continuing to make. [ Though at the sight of an arrow rolling around the back of his quiver he'd wrapped a roughly textured string around the shaft for its betrayal several times over to make sure he wouldn't grab it accidentally, a slight frown crosses his face. He should probably toss it out at this point, but never let it be said Claude doesn't enjoy puzzles. ] Then there's this one which I can't seem to get to balance. I'm about to call it a lost cause since it flies to the side no matter what I do to fix it, but I suppose it's also an option.
