I was joined by the fine fellows of the Covian army outside the barracks. I explained where we were venturing to and why. I then placed the men in the charge of Sergeant Valentine... I had a packhorse to command afterall
Remeber! Keep me and the packhorse safe!We made our way through the snow towards the Minoc portal and then stepped through to the shrine of Spirituality in the lands of Ilshenar. Through the pixie infested forests we marched until we arrived at the nest of the vile birdwomen!
Soldiering! This is the life! Doesn't seem too hazardous.Once there I let loose the fury of the guardsmen onto the heathen harpies while i followed close behind skinning their feathers and placing them in my packhorses saddlebags.
Go get them! Just remember to keep me and the packhorse safe!Things were going swimingly... Almost too swimingly. My packie was burdened with feathers and gold when a lapse in the guardsmen's concentration caused the poor beast to be brought down by the evil wenches.
My poor pack horse! Nevermind... We made our way slowly back to Cove, overloaded as we were with loot and feathers. I paid the guardsmen from the gold with some going into the coffers...
Now I can get cracking on those bolts and arrows eh?!However I did collect over 3000 feathers!

Fletching Time!With enough feathers secured i laid out my tools and made a start on the ammunition Mister Valentine ordered.
Some time, feathers, shafts and worn fingers later 1,000 arrows and 1,000 bolts were completed and ready for collection... Another good job if i don't mind saying so myself.
