[SEASONAL EVENT] berry good

Hunting. Like, food hunting. That was something Ronin left to the experts. Monsters he was happy to track down and dispatch, but you couldn't actually eat a lot of the stuff that came off them. Foraging, though. He thought he might just be able to manage that, so he and Vanya could eat more than reindeer jerky during this LongNight. With that in mind, he'd headed out into the Woodlands with the intention of finding some fruits and nuts and whatever else the Deepfrost was happy to provide him with. With a sled in tow, Ronin had packed a few crates onto it for anything he might be able to grab. And so far he'd been very lucky, actually. (What a surprise). In a shady spot untouched by the frost, he'd found a late blooming blackberry bush, stripping it of the fruits and dropping them into one of the crates. He'd also come across some chestnut trees and plenty of the nuts in their spiny casings on the forest floor. Pine nuts, too, were plentiful, and there was a crab apple tree, gnarled and ancient, that he was just investigating. It was as he reached up to pluck another of the apples that a curious green vine slithered down around his shoulders, unbeknownst to the guildmaster. That didn't last long. Oblivious to the hanging snake that had come to share his warmth, the little blighter snuck beneath his collar where it was warm, its freezing body snaking away down his deliciously warm back. Ronin yelped loudly enough to send a few crows scattering, and anyone who came across him would find him doing quite the entertaining dance indeed as he tried to fish out the snake. RONIN Darkness is a funny thing. It creeps up on you.
