[EA-LA D9] Painting Verdant Leaves

Post by Reo » Wed Jun 03, 2020 2:40 am

Reo squats over his mortar and pestle in the tent, sweating from exertion. He had been meaning to do this for a while, but it would be painfully tedious work, even by his standards. In the bowl sits a finger of jade, the one he had taken to wearing. Reo brings down the granite pestle, chipping away at the rock, trying to not lose a single fleck. The pounding is careful and deliberate, close to an hour before he is satisfied to start grinding it down to fine powder.

Satisfied, Reo begins to fix it to the steel arrowheads the Nezumi, delicately coating them. Finally satisfied, Reo fit the head onto the shaft. It had already been fletched with the duck feather from last week's hunt. Reo lifted his creation to the waning light of the afternoon. In the setting sun, the orangey light cut against the bright green of the leaf shaped head.

Reo gives the work a rare smile. "Even more beautiful than the real thing."
