The cock crowed at the sight of the dawn, a boy awoken in his makeshift hut. Prepping his tunic and messing with his jet black hair, signifying that the day has started and he needed to cook something. Of course, hunting was out of the option. His knife had broke yesterday from playing with one of the Toddson boys, the "Terrible Two" they've called themselves. "Not much older than me." The boy muttered to himself, he tied his waist and slipped on his only pair of leather boots. With that, he was off to visit Tim and Jim Toddson. The day has just begun and there's no possible chance of hunting without a weapon, especially not in the tilted forest. Terrible things happen in those woods, whoever enters will hear the cry of the banshee. As the boy departs his hut, something catches his eye. "What?" The boy says to himself. But of course, it was nothing but a scrawny rodent. He heard a scream in the distance, another helpless victim without a trusty knife. The boy makes his way towards the Toddson Camp, he marches his way down the main road and doesn't take long to start improvising. Which meant jumping over mud holes and the occasional slide. Slowly but surely, he approaches the Toddson Camp with the hilt of the knife in his hand. In the distance he could see the blade, Tim and Jim must be playing "Pirates" again.
