A fine report and a hefty sum of arrows and bolts, not to mention donating yer payment to the Church and Army. That's the spirit! 80 Shillings awarded - Edward Striker *signed* Raiden, Grenadier Captain. Title: Re: All The Ammunition Post by: Maccen on July 27, 2008, 01:52:50 pm After having seen a request for arrows. my own primary weapon, I decided to help my fellow archers within the army! I set out about the Shire chopping the less healthy trees and picking up sturdy dead wood. I did this first because the wood is one... still useful and two... its good for the forest to collect it! After I had as much as I could carry I whisked them off to my safety deposit box and went out for more! I soon had enough wood and whittled them down into the straightest shafts I could! I mean its not easy.... and I'm hardly as knowledgeable as most apprentices at those fancy schools! I think my works alright though.... just learn to shot around corners!
That done, I needed alot of feathers. Theres no place better than Covetous! I went there and slew many of those feathery daemons! Mighty Lithos grant my bow strength! I slew many of them and eventually had the feathers I needed. I trudged back to Cove with the burden and started the fletching process. It much more delicate than carving shafts! I had to pull the feathers apart and carefully apply them to the shafts. Its hard work. I finished by wrapping animal sinew around the ends of the feathers and shaft and bound them together. Job finished I made a promissory note with the bank and brought them to the barracks.The only member of the army there was that stubby Gayner fellow. Can't say I like him much so did not stay to negotiate a price! I do expect to be paid, either in coins or in a one time favour!

Title: Re: [Ongoing Task] All The Ammunition Post by: Yukina Kazami on August 02, 2018, 04:13:17 am Sat around the Goblin, Grumbling about disorganization and needing to hire another barmaid, I ran across my brothers old Bow he left here. Sudden realization hit me, Our guardsmen need supplies. I could very well join up but that would mean worrying Mizuho more with having both siblings in the army, and losing her Manager. Oh well, I set out to do what I am best at, chopping down trees. Making a good stack of usable wood to make the shaft of arrows and bolts, I then considered how I was to get the feathers I needed. I remember a long time ago while training to use my axe for more then just wacking trees, there was a harpy nest at the Spirit Shrine. Being a bit miffed at
For several hours I stayed in that nook where they all piled into and diligently plucked every feather off their dead bodies. The pure pleasure and relief of all anger I felt doing that amazed me. Skipping home to the Goblin singing a song about killing birdwomen, I proceeded to sit another few hours in the basement of the Goblin meticulously making each individual arrow and bolt. I wasnt sure what time it was, but I headed to the Barracks to try and find one of those (https://imgoat.com/uploads/5ded5353c5/131018.png) (https://imgoat.com/v/131018) Signed, Yukina Kazami, Goblin Manageress Title: Re: [Ongoing Task] All The Ammunition Post by: Linaeus on August 02, 2018, 04:16:56 am Yukina Kazami is awarded 15 Shillings.
