Who: Jude and Riko
Where: Outskirts of the forest
When: Day 131
Open/Closed: Closed

[ Past few days were all about the downpour, but Riko didn't mind all that much—she always preferred to stay indoors, after all. Well, it didn't bother her at the beginning, but after some time she came to a realization that staying at home on rainy days is enjoyable, yet it doesn't apply when you're in an unknown world, sitting in a small hut with nothing to do.

That's why, when the weather conditions finally have improved, Riko stepped outside the hut and walked around the base camp for a while. It's unbelievable how quickly a month has passed—thinking about that, she didn't realize when she wandered off rather far away. Right to the outskirts of the forest.

The forest she's been afraid to enter alone for quite a while. It's not her fault that there are so many dangerous animals just waiting for her to walk inside and attack her!

She might or might not be dramatizing a bit. Or maybe not just a bit. ]

It should be fine if I don't go too far in, right...I'm sure I'll be fine.

[ Trying to convince herself, Riko takes her first step...only to realize that there's, in fact, a sizeable boar sitting behind one of the trees. ]

EEEEK!!

[ jude is lingering nearby when he hears a startling, high pitched shriek coming from the direction of the forest. he doesn't even think about it before racing there to see what the commotion is about.

what he finds is... a poor, trembling wreck of a teenage girl, and a boar. a large boar.

well, that's not what he expected, but he has no idea what he did expect. ]

A-Are you okay?! What's going on?

[ she doesn't look hurt... and the boar isn't moving an inch, but its eyes are locked right on her. he should exercise caution. ]

... Just back away, slowly. It won't hurt you.
