6. Unfortunately, there are parts of the animal's anatomy that you just have to look at, to eliminate all possibilities. The animal doesn't seem pleased, though, and the examination unfortunately produces no results for you this time. -2 HP
"...but you cannot draw it out."
The hound nearly skipped on its feet, willing Keeper to continue. Keeper, however, mistook the action as confirmation, and he stepped forward to inspect the paw in question. Frustrated, the hound snapped at him; though its teeth deliberately made no contact, Keeper was so startled he fell back.OOC Footnote Current HP: 28 - 2 = 26/30 Current Trust: 15 Section notes: 2 Clues

1. You take a step back, careful not to spook the animal. Stepping away, surprisingly, actually helps you get a better idea of the full situation. +1 clue
"And... I cannot draw it out either, can I?" The buck smiled, but the motion seemed sad.
"That's right," the hound said. "I would die."OOC Footnote Current HP: 26/30 Current Trust: 15 Section notes: 2 + 1 = 3 Clues

Task 3The relief at the buck's finally figuring it out was short-lived. The hound pricked its ears, its legs stiff and its lips raised.
"Be wary. They're coming."
As soon as the hound finished, it was beset on both sides by a pair of hounds. Just like before, Keeper rushed in to help.OOC Footnote Current HP: 26 - 3 = 23/30 Current Trust: 15 Section notes: Intruder HP: 10 - 6 = 4/10

Soon both enemy hounds were on the escape, yelping as they ran.
"We should go before they bring their pack," Keeper suggested.
The hound grunted. "I know a safe space. Come."OOC Footnote Current HP: 20 - 3 = 17/30 Current Trust: 15 Section notes: Intruder HP: 2 - 2 = 0/10

6-8: You and your charge move forwards 5 units.
The hound looked sideways at him. "By the thorns, I imagine."OOC Footnote Current HP: 17/30 Current Trust: 15 Section notes: 5 Units Traveled

"Like the one in my paw," the hound stumbled as it spoke, and Keeper caught it on his shoulder. "You get cut, and the bleeding never stops."OOC Footnote Current HP: 17/30 Current Trust: 15 + 3 = 18 Section notes: 5 + 5 = 10 Units Traveled

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
"Ah! Poison."
The hound laughed. "If only, acha. A witch's curse."OOC Footnote Current HP: 17/30 Current Trust: 18 + 3 = 21 Section notes: 10 Units Traveled

"Mustn't I?"
The hound seemed surprised, then angry. "No; you need not even be here."
"I feel as if I must. Perhaps we are both cursed, then."
To this the hound said nothing.OOC Footnote Current HP: 17/30 Current Trust: 21 + 3 = 24 Section notes: 15 + 5 = 20 Units Traveled

Task 5"We're by the witch's briar now; no one would dare follow us here," the hound said.
Keeper looked pointedly at its foot. "I'm surprised you'd come back."
"Feh; after what happened last time, I don't think I can leave you on your own."
Keeper smiled.
"Don't mistake me, however; I cannot help you." The hound looked intently at the buck's eyes, but he didn't seem deterred. He only put his teeth to the briar and set to work.OOC Footnote Current HP: 17 - 2 = 15/30 Current Trust: 24 Section notes: Barrier HP: 20 - 6 = 14/20

Task 6"I've come for a cure," Keeper said, wasting no moment.
The witch scowled; she knew those that had died at her hands, even if indirectly. "All this for a hound? Very well, but you must do exactly as I say."
2. The animal seems spooked by a smell or a sound that you make unintentionally as you work. -2 trust
"Don't trust her," the hound cried, but it was still on the other side of the briars, and its voice was nearly gone by the time it reached them.OOC Footnote Current HP: 9/30 Current Trust: 24 - 2 = 22 Section notes: 1 Progress Point
