[quote=@ShadowVentus] "Ah, good call! I've got a weapon myself. If you'd like, I could give you a crash course on weaponry sometime." He says, feeling like a casual conversation would keep him from messing up along the way. So far, he'd been doing pretty good in terms of avoiding any stray roots or branches that could prevent him from making a clean getaway from the chimera. "Man, of all the things to be chased by, it just has to be a chimera. In a jungle, of all places!" Ven states. [/quote] "Oh, would you? That would be wonderful, Ven. I've got seventeen older brothers so they all tried to teach me some things, but they've decided that I'm too small to use a crossbow, not strong enough to draw any sort of regular bow, and a little too squeamish to use a knife. I'm halfway decent with a sling but my brothers don't approve of it." She giggled a little crazily at his next comment. "I've read about chimeras. But I thought they were typically found in dry climates, like tundras and deserts and plains. Usually deserts, but there's been at least a couple of ice chimeras terrorizing the northern villages over the past thousand years. I've never heard of one in a jungle before though."
