Ranyshia was working on the drums, cleaning and stretching the hide meticulously. He couldn't do much in way of assembling them without the help of the baboons but he he could at least prepare the materials. He hadn't spent much time outside of his den recently, so caught up in his own work, that he finally brought himself out of his den.
