"I can gather most of the materials by myself," Amanda replied. "Though I didn't really bring the kind of tools needed for some of this. Telekinesis can only do so much."
She gathered the hooves, then used her magic to pull out the creature's teeth. The bones themselves would be more valuable, but slaughtering the entire corpse would be too difficult. The teeth could at least be ground up to make bone meal, which was valuable to alchemists.
"How much experience do you have with skinning after a hunt?" she asked once the teeth were collected. "Creature like this, the hide can be pretty valuable, once it's been tanned into leather. I know a tanner that will trade quite generously for something like this. But it's a lot of work to do with just some telekinesis and a knife." She touched the simple knife on her belt, more of a tool than a weapon. It was sharp enough to skin a small lizard or mammal, but not really made for skinning a horse.
