Stupid goblin. She was trying to saw away at a thick tree branch with just a single stone. It would dull before she'd even get through bark. Orchid knew this goblin was as stupid as all the rest, but arrogant to boot. She needed to quell such rebellion before it got out of hand. But question was, how would Orchid get to this girl? She was elevated, if a bit distracted. Orchid could climb a tree easily, but that would put her at a disadvantage if she wanted to throttle the goblin girl. [i][color=firebrick]"Wait. Why should I try to go to the girl? I can easily make the girl come to me."[/color][/i] If there was one thing Orchid regrets since coming here, it was the fact she didn't have a gun. She had to always risk herself in a fight by getting up close and personal. And while she might've won so far, there was no telling what other sort of nasty beasts were here. Or just other people. She needed a weapon. A range weapon. [color=firebrick][i]"Reaching into his bag and taking out a stone, he slung it and struck the Philistine on the forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell facedown on the ground."[/i][/color] Orchid was not a religious girl. Sure her parents attended church and her father was rather important in that community, but she simply attended because she was the eldest daughter. But there was one story that she always held close to her heart: the tale of David and Goliath. What wasn't to love; a humble farmer boy taking down a hulking barbaric warrior bristling with weapons and armor, with naught but a stone and a sling. Orchid even tried to use a sling before. Once, and never picked it up since then. But now she would need to use it again. With the cordage she had made from the goblins, Orchid would create a sling. It would take up all of the cordage she'd have but it would be worth it. Stabbing the tip of her club into the ground, first thing Orchid did was measured out her cordage. It was just a few inches taller than Orchid herself, probably around 40 inches or so. Near the center she made a small basket; she folded the cordage until it had three layers, with the basket length about three inches or so. At the ends she knotted them up. She would tear off a bit of the cordage and undo the fibers a bit to weave a pouch. Once the pouch was solidly built she would make a simple knot on one end, and a simple ring at the other like she would for a yo-yo. Her current stones would be too big for her to use, but she could make due with some acorns on the forest floor. She just needed to test her accuracy first. And who was a better target than this goblin bitch? Taking a sturdy acorn into the sling's pouch, Orchid tried to remember how she was suppose to do this. Two, three spins only, flick her wrist out, let go of the knot. She tried to do it much like how she'd throw any stone; using her thumb to guide while using her index finger to launch, the rest simply there to ensure the projectile was stable before it was released. [color=firebrick]"You got this. Show them what you're mage of/"[/color] Orchid began to spin the sling around her head. By the time she finished her first rotation she had the target in her sight; the back of the goblin girl's head. When the second swing was starting Orchid's eyes narrowed to focus, her mind thinking about her anger. How even in this life, she has to deal with basic bitches who just cop and attitude with her. Probably other girls too who dismiss Orchid's skill and appearance for shallow reasons. But this wasn't the human world anymore. Orchid didn't have to take that sort of talk with her head down. No, if they want to talk shit, they're going to get hit. And Orchid would glad smash their faces in with a smile. Right after the second rotation, Orchid flicked her wrist towards the goblin girl in the tree, letting go of the knot to send the projectile flying. An audible snap was heard right after the missile was released. Afterwards, Orchid loaded another acorn.
