As she slowly walked, she could feel that the strength of this child seems to be quite low.She could barely walk hundred of meter and she already felt quite exhausted.If she only knew what to do to help her.As she read bunch of books she knew there is possibility that this child soul would usually come back to its own body.In that case she needs to make it healthier and find perfect place to grow up safely.She used her own stubbornness to keep going on.She went trough the shrubs and over the stones for while already, there was still no ending.As she taught that she couldn"t hold on anymore she finally heard sound of water.
She walked out of shrubs stumbling and with weak legs as she came to see quite a sight.
It was river on her left side and on the right side was the sea.Across the river she could clearly see the city walls.From both sides of river were smaller buildings.It should be dwellings of lower cla.s.s of people.
Kendra looked around her and saw that up the river there are few streams or brooks.She went back to shrubs and walked in the direction of the smaller stream.She was after in body of a smaller child.Even tho she could swim she didn"t want to take chances with this weak body.She might drown because she wouldn"t be able to swim with current strength.
As she approached the stream it seemed to be shallow and clean enough for her to wash herself safely.She took off the stuff that could be detached of the body.The rest seemed to be still glued on so she just went straight into the water and dunked herself over hear head.
She came out of water and felt that some of the stuff was slowly loosing it up.She looked for something to use on herself to scrub off all that filth.On the side she could see some dried gra.s.ses.She wrapped them into of ball making few of them.She knew one wont help.
After most of the stuff got of her hair and body she walk to the bag and took out the peace of soap.
She started scrubbing rest of the dirt.After while she finally was clean even her hair.Her skin seemed to become red from all that scrubbing and cold water.
But it is ok now she knows that she is clean at last.She rummaged trough the bag to look for clothes and saw boys pants and s.h.i.+rts.They were bit big for her but they were clean and she can roll up the pants.Luckily he put few pairs in it.It was her luck to have such kind benefactor.
She tried to dry her hair but as she didn"t had any comb she could see that she couldn"t handle the mess of it.So choose to cut it off.She took out the knife and just cut all the ends that was tangled.
She took gra.s.s and made tail.Now she felt quite confident.
She took peace of bread and old cheese and ate a bit.While she was eating she saw few fishes in the brook and got the idea to fish some for food.She looked around and found quite amount of dried straws.She remembered that she read out of curiosity how to make some basic things out straw.One was fish trap.She took straw and slowly made the trap.
Her body was weak so she progressed slowly.It was already almost evening when she finished it.
She gathered some worms and bugs under the stones and some stones in the trap.Then she turned around and looked for the place where to put the trap.She found one place not far from where she was standing and put it there.She put it there and looked for place where she could sleep.
She already knew that this is summer time as the day was quite hot while she walked around and even when she was sitting near this stream.That means tonight she might be able to handle with the blanket only.
She looked around and saw tree with branches that even she could reach.She slowly climbed up and found one of bigger branches.She sat on her bag and pulled blanket around herself and went to sleep.
Next morning she woke up with the sound of birds.She luckily didn"t had habit of turning and tossing so she was safe on the branch.She looked at the sky and it was just starting to lighten up.
That means it was just dawn.She was already wide awake so went down and washed her face to refresh herself.
She remembered the trap and got it out as she pulled straw rope.She hoped it was strong enough or she would have to go in dive for it.She didn"t feel going in tick of the down into ice cold water.
As she pulled she was hoping that she catches few of them.Maybe she could sell some for few coins.
Finally the trap is out and was heavy as it seemed.She hoped it was not heavy just because of the water that trap was soaked in.She opened it and saw few bigger fishes and bunch of smaller ones.I guess the trap seemed to feel like perfect hiding spot.
She took the ones that were truly to small to eat and threw them back into water.The rest she put on thread.then she turned around and hid in the bushed the trap as it seems to be helpful.Its fine if she could use it couple more times.
Then she realized she can"t light the fire.She needed fire stone.Even tho she read how to make fire with branches..she knew she had no strength to do that.And till she makes it the fishes might turn bad...Its summer after all.
She then choose to eat peace of bread and some cheese again.She didn"t want to eat it all because she might not be bale to earn anything .But she hoped someone will give her some ember so she could make her own fire.If the fishes are not sold she can eat them.
She took her bag and wrapped it in some straw and branches and hid it into the shrubs as well..She looked at that place and saw it was well hidden.With sigh of relief she turned around took the fishes and walked toward the city as the first rays of light hit her smiling face.
