Glancing between his inventory and the food a few times, Yu found himself grimacing at the prospect of attempting to preserve the fish without salt. It was [i]possible[/i] that one of the other (Kokoma, maybe?) had some in reserve, but in all likelihood they were just going to have to see how things would pan out. For what it was worth, the [i]amount[/i] of fish that had been retrieved coupled with the newly-hunted bird (whatever the heck monster that was) meant that they most certainly had room to spare on that front.

Failing that, maybe one of them could use ice magic...

...Did any of them have ice magic to begin with, though...?

Seeing the current situation as it was, though, Eunice simply sighed and shook her head, the slightest of smiles on her face as she glanced at how the group was fumbling about.

"I can probably handle starting the preservation process and cooking whatever we have," she said, lighting the campfire with a flick before glancing at Sefira's gunk-covered form again with a frown. "As was assumed prior, there is actually a river nearby—over that way."

"Gotcha; guess I'll go handle those clothes," Yu nodded, following after Saito as he went off towards the aforementioned body of water. [i]Laundry[/i], he could do, at least. "Better than leaving me to cook, at least."

The river itself was fairly pristine, with clear water running downstream towards the lake that had been the source of all the fish left back at the campsite, and the riverbed here was surprisingly shallow—perfect for what they planned to accomplish here. The sun was still hanging over the horizon at this point, but night would be upon them soon enough.

It was that slowly-shifting sun, though, that would reveal a momentary glint of [i]something[/i] deeper within the river. Though the water itself could be seen through with ease, whatever had caught the light would likely have gone unnoticed otherwise. The slight form of a hilt of some form could be made out if one focused and the water made itself right for a moment, but beyond that...
