The kid was determined.
That trait in itself was admirable. But he was also stubborn, sullen and seemingly tunnel-visioned.
I followed his actions, assisting in moving the wood now as well. But this job too would not take long, and I wonder if the raven-boy would simply fly away the first chance he got once all the tasks in this setting were 'complete'.
Motions pause, as I rifle through my coat pockets for a few items. First, a waterbag, and second, some crackers. I take a deep drink, replenishing my body of the fluids it no doubt lost through sweat and breath, and then chew on half a cracker, before forcing myself directly in Korbin's path. He could try and wander around, but he'd find my presence there. I did my best to make eye contact with him, and with a friendly smile, offered him a full cracker and my waterskin.
