2 - 5: You're not traveling alone, and the animal isn't too excited about moving and possibly doing something to its injury. You have to spend a few minutes reassuring it - but afterwards, it seems much calmer. +3 trust
Over time it became clear the hound could move no further. Quite frankly, Keeper felt the same. The two rested together a little while, sitting side by side to stay warm despite the late hour.OOC Footnote Current HP: 9/30 Current Trust: 20 + 3 = 23 Section notes: 5 Units Traveled

The hound could not help but whine. Keeper licked its wounds, but the hound grew fidgety under his touch and it started walking once more.OOC Footnote Current HP: 9/30 Current Trust: 23 + 3 = 26 Section notes: 5 + 5 = 10 Units Traveled

15-18: You chose a bad path: the route is occupied by something or someone dangerous. You can make a run for it, probably hurting yourself in the process, or backtrack. Lose 2 HP OR travel back 3 units. Any travel that would put you below 0 units puts you at 0 instead.
The hound's ears pricked and strained forward. Keeper could not see what it sensed, but when it turned away he followed without a word.OOC Footnote Current HP: 9/30 Current Trust: 26 Section notes: 10 - 3 = 7 Units Traveled

They circled back and took a different route. The hound looked at him a little anxiously, as if worried Keeper would leave. Keeper did not.OOC Footnote Current HP: 9/30 Current Trust: 26 + 3 = 29 Section notes: 7 + 5 = 12 Units Traveled

1: You're so frazzled by your previous encounter that you end up backtracking 3 units. Any travel that would put you below 0 units puts you at 0 instead.
This time it was Keeper who faltered, finding the path a little too familiar and unwilling to see where it led. The hound blinked, but followed patiently.OOC Footnote Current HP: 9/30 Current Trust: 29 Section notes: 12 - 3 = 9 Units Traveled

Task 5"Now that we're safe, will you let me help you?" Keeper said.
"I appreciate you standing by me, but frankly I don't know if you can."
"Please."
The hound looked at him. Finally, it spoke.
"I tried to steal from a witch—a stupid decision, I know. As I escaped I stepped on her briar, and she cursed it so that any flesh it pierced would never close. If you wish to help me, you must ask her to reverse the curse."
"Oh. Is that all?"
The hound snorted, but there was real concern in its tone. "Try not to get pricked yourself, acha."

The witch was not hard to find, for the briars that guarded her territory grew thick indeed.OOC Footnote Current HP: 9 - 2 = 7/30 Current Trust: 35 Section notes: Barrier HP: 20 - 2 = 18/20

Keeper worked his way through the briar, but it was difficult work. He could not avoid the cuts as he bit and tore, but if the witch removed the curse then he knew he could be healed, too.OOC Footnote Current HP: 7 - 2 = 5/30 Current Trust: 35 Section notes: Barrier HP: 18 - 1 = 17/20

He worked his way deeper and deeper. It was growing darker, but whether it was because of the briars growing above him, or the life force bleeding out of him, he could not say.OOC Footnote Current HP: 5 - 2 = 3/30 Current Trust: 35 Section notes: Barrier HP: 17 - 4 = 13/20

Soon he was surrounded on all sides by thorns. The only way out was behind him but, ah, in his haste he had not made enough room to turn. To turn his attention to the briars beside him, rather than the one in front of him, however, was too difficult to accept. He would not turn back.OOC Footnote Current HP: 3 - 2 = 1/30 Current Trust: 35 Section notes: Barrier HP: 13 - 3 = 10/20
