"Supplies for a quest for The Greater Shoulders of the Emerald, please." Kari had begun to fall into a routine with these quests, but she didn't mind that. It just meant that she knew more or less what to expect, such as the silent Guild Master handing over a pack of supplies and sending her on her way. It also gave her knowledge on what kind of horse to look for so that she wouldn't have to worry about it running away during her quest. Of course, such a thing wasn't a guarantee, but she could still put the knowledge to use in some small way by avoiding the clearly antsy ones.

Picking out her horse, she loaded it up with her pack and weapon and set off.

While Kari was able to keep her footing this time around, her weapon accidentally knocked a beehive as she and her horse passed by, causing the creature to become spooked by the sudden swarm of stinging insects.

Having manage to just barely grab her pack before the horse took of, Kari made a break for it before the bees decided to take their anger out on her.

Following the path she'd taken the previous day, Kari smiled when she found that the same clearing from before once more held food for her to take with her. It was a definite boon that would aid in her completion and a small part of her still wondered whether this was magic or if someone was actually leaving this food laying around for anyone to pick up.

Having been too preoccupied with the pack on her back, Kari failed to notice the switch under her feet until she had already stepped on it, sinking down as a hail of arrows pelted towards her. She was able to make it through alive, but the additional bulk of the pack without a horse to aid her hindered her ability to dodge.

Kari's just didn't have a chance today. Apparently some arrows had hit her pack without her knowledge and her food had been falling out at a steady rate until there was barely any left by the time she got to the base of the mountain.

Knowing she probably wouldn't make it to the top without food, Kari turned her feet back towards home to obtain more supplies so she could try again.

Once more, Kari went to the Guild Master for supplies.Once more, she was handed a pack.She guessed the Guild Master wasn't happy with her since the supplies were less than she'd been given initially.

Kari grimaced at the wolf that blocked her way through the winding trail. It looked hungry, and she guessed she was on the menu today. Leveling her spetum, she did her best to look intimidating. Apparently this wasn't enough since the wolf made a dive towards her, clawing her shoulder in the process.

Kair and the wolf took turns lunging and dodging, the wolf using teeth and claws while Kari used the curved edges of her spetum to keep the beast at bay long enough to create an opening. Finally, she found an opening and managed to land a well-placed jab into the wolf. It let out a final howl before it fell silent.

Taking a moment to catch her breath, she took a piece of cloth from her pack and tried to wrap the cut on her shoulder to stop the slow leak that had begun to stain her clothes.

Kari was really beginning to wonder why she even bothered with horses anymore. most of them got spooked at the slightest noise causing her to make a mad grab for her pack so they wouldn't take off with the supplies.

"Guess I'm on my own again", she grumbled as she continued along what was becoming a well-worn path.

Kari had messed up. she thought she'd been careful, but one misstep had caused the giant flaming creature of the labyrinth to chase after her. She couldn't help but grimace as it swung a flaming paw towards her, catching her pack and instantly incinerating a portion of her food supplies.

After quite some time dodging and ducking through narrow tunnels, she was finally able to lose the beast. She just had such a way with animals, she thought grimly.

Kari was grateful that the rest of her journey continued in silence. With how low her supplies were and how many creatures had attacked her, she considered herself lucky to be alive.

Reaching the top of the mountain, she was glad to take the shoulder pads from the pedestal and place them into her charred pack before turning her feet towards home for a good long rest. Without animals.
