The woman had just turned a stick into a weapon right before her eyes! How novel! She crossed her arms and tilted her head in thought. She made it look so easy. Could Vendi do it?<br/><br/><strong>"First you need the shaft,"</strong>the elf repeated, looking up at the nearest tree.<strong>"You want a long straight branch. It needs to be supple so as not to break upon the first thrust, but not so floppy that it can't stay erect."</strong>The innuendo would have to wait. It was time to put on her adventuring hat and be serious! Vendi reached up to grab a branch; the heels of her boots really helped with that part. The branch was straight, but tapered off into a cluster of three leaves at the end. Vendi didn't seem to mind. The branch was long by her standards - three feet of stick was three feet more than she had ever needed before - so she figured that would do the trick. She gave a tug. No, that wouldn't do. She tried to bend it instead. She heard a satisfying tearing noise and kept bending and bending and bending until<em>SNAP!</em>the branch broke off. It was not a clean break; half the branch had splintered off and remained as a sliver on the tree.<br/><br/>Feeling as if something was off, Vendi compared her broken stick to Ishtar's. Not as long. Not as thick. Not as straight. This was harder than it looked.<br/><br/><strong>"I do believe this tree is defective,"</strong>Vendi said in minor irritation.
