After that spectacle with that one girl, Otmar had left some of his things behind at camp. Claiming the area by dragging the walkers body over after she had left. Now with the bits of rope, nails, and knife, he was currently collecting some heavy sticks. Later he would whittle down the edges into throwing sticks so he could take out small prey like rabbits or birds. Also, he needed to make some for deer traps, and even more to make a fire. Looking quite lopsided as he carried a good bundle of 20 or so rough sticks in his left arm crook. While his backpack was hanging off in a nearby tree to put stones into for his fire and possibly making a sling shot. Once the branch it was on snapped from the weight, he would know he had enough.
Seiping a hand across his forehead, this was getting really tiring on an empty stomach. Maybe he could eat some berries? Looking between trees as a scan for either possible walker threats or berry bushes. Seeing none, he sighed and went back to collecting. Finally making a pitstop after traveling north about 400 feet. Eh.. Winding up his bundle with the knotted line of rope before setting it down and he sat. Leaning his head against a tree as he sat. Silence filled the seemingly calm woods. Only the rustle of leaves and maybe a twitter from a bird or two. Though remembering how the other girl had found him just as he took a break, he grudgingly climbed to his feet and swept off any bits of mud or dirt that may have gotten on the butt of his jeans or knees. Reaching for the bundle of sticks with a tired arm. Im done for the day. Deciding to head back to his base of operations after setting a few traps. No more collecting though, thank god. He had a few splinters that he couldnt get and they itch/burned. Little buggars.. Grunting as he lifted the stack and turned around, heading for his pack.
