[part one]

[dramatispersonae]

[You are in the middle of a active forrest. You can hear animals in the trees around you, and the call of birds, and faintly in the distance, the buzzing of bees.

The path you are standing on stretches ahead and to your right.]

[brotagonist]

...anyone remember where honey comes from?

[unrecumbent]

No. But I suspect it will either be obvious to find and difficult to obtain or vice versa.

[neversaydie]

A jar?

[retribution]

Beehives.

And you are?

[retribution]

... Falcon.

Re: [part one]

[dramatispersonae]

[similar, but completely different from the forrest that was revealed yesterday, insofar as it looks like it's quite alive. the trees and underbrush to your sides are so dense as to make them impassable. here and there, wildflowers dot the paths. quite nice.]

[part two]

[dramatispersonae]

[as you pick your way forward, you notice that the sound of bees doesn't seem to diminish until you've been walking for a good 15 minutes, or is that longer? either way, the path curves around a set of rocks and forward again. you do hear a distinct wuffling sound in the trees ahead, though.]

…That doesn't sound like bees, does it?

Re: [part two]

[neversaydie]

... Didn't he say to keep an eye out for things that bite.

Re: [part two]

[unrecumbent]

Not anymore.

[i do not appear to have a concept of fear or an understanding of the consequences of bodily harm. we cool]

[part three]

[dramatispersonae]

[as you continue down the path, you see someone very familar sitting on the root of a very large, wide log which is completely blocking the path with its girth.]

Re: [part three]

[scalesfromeyes]

Hound! Hello! Have you seen any bees?

Re: [part three]

[suicidewatch]

[WAVES how did I get here]

Bees? Not around!

Re: [part three]

[unrecumbent]

[reunion schmeunion. is the log scalable? and/or are there any obvious places bees are coming from in it]

Re: [part three]

[dramatispersonae]

[there looks to be some bees milling across the top, grazing at the mold and then flying aawaaayy]

Re: [part three]

[brotagonist]

...huh, I can't cut that. Maybe we can make a ladder.

[part four]

[dramatispersonae]

[As you all come sliding down the other side, you see a broken open hive amongst a sea of flowers. it is swarming and it, to even the unknowing ear, sounds angry.

there is also a tap and a bucket next to the hive stand.]

Re: [part four]

[unrecumbent]

[whelp let's see how this goes]

Why are you angry, bees?

[brotagonist]

...I got it.

If Falcon can't talk to them, I have gloves and stuff, so there won't be any way bees can sting me except on the face and neck.

I can wear a bag over my head.
