Driftwood. 

Logs.

There aren't any kayaks but you could make a raft with vines if you tried hard enough and didn't get killed first.

You made it worse, idiot.

"What else was I supposed to do?!"

Sharlin grabbed Winter's wrist and started pulling him away at a steady pace. She worried if they started running the vines would pounce, the way a predator might.

"Let's get away, shall we?"

The despair hit her again.

Flashes of silky black hair mixed in blood shot through her vision.

Why did she have to think about this now? It was not the time . . .

She shoved all of her feelings deep down inside, into the little void in her heart where lots of things have gone to die. She

could deal with feeling sad, she felt sad all the time--she just needed to wait until later. At least that what she told herself as she forced her limbs to move, dragging Winter along.

Uh . . . you okay kiddo?

"Fantastic," Sharlin said with gritted teeth. "Never been better."

@Lord Spirit

The vines lashed out, but were limited in their range. 

They got left in the dust.

As they ran they found themselves in the middle of a clearing. The floor was covered with hundreds of deathant colonies, surrounding them.

And somehow you ran into the middle without dying

Sharlin used an impressive range of colorful language that is not Shard appropriate.

Wow, even I didn't know some of those.

"There's ants, make sure none of them get on you." She kept dragging Winter, this time carefully stepping towards the edge of the clearing, walking on her toes and avoiding the ant's as best she could.

Primarily worried about the nightmaws, Murr waded into the water, submerging himself for just a moment before moving along the beach with the water at his waist, hoping to leave his scent trail behind.

The nightmaws screams reach the area where Reuben died. They don't continue to follow him.

After a while waiting without hearing the nightmaws get closer, Murr got out of the water and began moving toward the jungle again. Vomiting had left him dehydrated, and he needed to find fresh water soon before anything else. 

Well, I have two Aviars looking around for me. With any luck...

Small streams of water flowed from out of the jungle toward the ocean.

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.

If someone is near the coast it's possible they could interact if you want. He doesn't necessarily have to kill everyone he sees :P

Berin stepped over to pick up the other side of the canoe, making sure to seem slightly clumsy in doing such. “Thank you. I… I don’t want to die…”

"Neither do I." Casper looks around paranoidly "Well, if we're gonna be together for a bit, what's your-" He's cut off by the cannon. "Oh, oh no. That was too soon."

Quote

Dang, so much happened while I was gone lol.

Lol. Me too. 

Berin paled. He didn’t have to fake it. 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.

@Lord Spirit

This is when I'm glad I have Fawn. hopefully the ants don't notice me.

"I know. I literally warned you about the ants and the vines right before you ran off. We need to be more careful." Winter responds, watching the ground carefully

The sun slowly nears the horizon, marking the end of the first day. 

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

You had best find safety.

Maj stays on the beach, machete out and trying to calm himself down. Thoughts... thoughts are bad.

He glances around himself warily, pulling the fishing gear out of the backpack.

Does it include a net, and if so, how large of one?

It does, but it's not a huge fishing net. More like one that you'd use to land a fish after you'd caught it on a pole - though a pole is part of the equipment in the pack.

Thanks! (Wait by fishing pole do you mean something like modern rods, or a spear?)

Maj sighs, regarding the fishing equipment. Mark's words flared in his mind.

Do what Arc did before me. Take anything you've got, and turn it into a way to fight. A trick. 

Bird chirped lightly on his shoulder.

"Hush!" He silenced the Aviar, looking around in the forest.

I'm not alone out here. I should have taken the kayak to get away from land when the Nightmaws come out.

Varel has woven a hammock from leaves and is fast asleep in a tree near the cornucopia.

"It's getting dark. We don't want to be wandering the forest at night. We don't have enough time or materials to build a shelter. Maybe we should head back towards the shore."

What's his Aviar type, again?

Mr. Forrest took a final glance at the large monitors covering the walls of the room.

"There," he said to Vistari and Third. "You've had your death. If it's no difference to you, I'd like to continue my observations from my personal office."

He left the monitoring room without waiting for a reply.

@Ancient Elantrian @Dragonheir

Forrest walked the halls, carved from igneous rock, leading to the his personal office and suite. His mind wandered to Pellee and Fifteen, who he hadn't seen since that morning...

Out of curiosity he signaled an Avox aide, which waited in the halls to be called upon.

A barbaric way to create servants...the amount of mental torture required to turn a rebel against the state into a mindless servant...

"When you have a moment, please inform Miss Rozegaze that I would like to have a chat with her. She can contact me from her office. If require clearance to communicate through language, you have my permission to write a single note to bring her."

The servant nodded, then turned and hastily walked away.

Hm.

Forrest continued to his personal office.

Mental sensing, but I meant to change it to shielding

lets hope Nightmaws can’t climb trees…)
