When Kendra appeared in mid of thick forest she smiled brightly. This place is clearly perfect to raise vegetables. the gound is even and fruitful, the surroundings seem to be quite sunny and even small spring river wiggled between the trees and ending down the hill.

Yes, she stood on top of some hill and could see practically everything. She checked the surroundings and smiled. This place is clearly the perfect spot. From down it was unapproachable as the wall was steep and filled with sharp stones. 

She walked around and saw big forest behind the other side of the small creek. She checked the water and it was clear while few fishes wiggled inside. She left her backpack next to the big stone near the creek and started exploring the place.

It was quite big. Huge plateau on top of the flat mountain. A huge forest filled with smaller animals. A cave she could use for a while as the sleeping place, clean river, flat fields for seeding and planting and lots of light.

''This place is clearly perfect. Is there some side story on this?'' She watched the plants surrounding her and saw some of them clearly having an end of their seeding phase. Her eyes darted towards the trees and saw the same thing. ''End of summer and begin of fall? Wow, is he trying to kill me? How can I feed someone if I have no time to grow the plants enough.''

She started grumbling while quickly rushing towards her backpack. First, she took the backpack, checked the dry ration she brought with her and then checked the seeds. ''This is clearly not enough for me to feed anyone with. Yet. Let me try speed up the process.''

She looked at the field and used her earth skill. ''Uproot and let me see what we have here.''

But she got used to her strong powers so she forgot that the first-grade skill takes a lot of the inner power and doesn't do much. She uprooted just a small part of the field when she felt dizzy. It seems she forgot how fast the energy gets drained.

She could feel clearly her inner power being empty so she made decision to do it herself. She will uproot the field with her skill only if there is something really heavy. The rest of the time, she'll just use her hands... When her sight fell on he tiny hands she regretted it not have grown up on time.

Now hse had no power to do it. Never mind. She needs to think of something. How long can a human be without food? Two-three days?

She watched down a steep slope and saw a huge river that made path trough few strange stones and went into the still blue lake. If she could find a way to go down from time to time and hunt or fish some before her plants start growing... She needs to think about wintertime as well. 

So many things to prepare. She smiled suddenly. He said when she says that food is ready, it will be directly delivered to them. She can write messages with food and warn them. they have to prepare as well... 

She hurriedly walked back to her backpack and started running towards the cave. She needs to make weapons, quickly. She looked at the plates of new metal and smiled. That blacksmith had an amazing idea to precut everything and put parts into sides of the backpack. 


As this kind of alloy was new the Taskmaster never checked. After all, they couldn't bring in the finished product but were not forbidden to use it at all. That meant they could make the weapons here. 

She checked everything. The heads for the arrows, five fishing hooks in a different sizes, parts for a crossbow, the spade and hoe metal parts. One plate that could be used as knife. She packed all out and slowly put it into the cave carefully. She left the seeds in the big box as she needed first to rush down to cook food. 

She took a bit of the dried rations, the crossbows, the semi knife, two fishing hooks and tips for arrows. Then she took the expandable rope she got as a gift from weaver and one of the pieces of cloth she needed actually for her protection against rain.

Her backpack now was almost empty as she took out most of the gear and neatly lined them up in the dry corner of the cave. She could see that there was a way to go down from this place, but it was quite dangerous. So step by step she would go down and make markings so she would know how to do when she goes up again.

An arduous way for such a small body. ''I really forgot that I am a little child. Is it worth it to hide in a child's body? What in the future. Is this my wish? On the path to cultivation, I can't have any remnants of the past anger. It is gone now. Can't changes it anyway. I need to look forward, well this time downwards as this mountain is really the way to crazy.''

She spoke to herself while step by step going down the mountain plain. When she arrived down her body already shook from all the fatigue. Her body slumped and as she sat down she realized how wet her clothes are. Luckily she can't die, but he never said she can't get sick.

She stood up and took out her spare clothes and changed. She snaked on a bit of dry rations and slowly started walking towards the first trees. She needed to find quickly safe shelter before darkness. Up there were no dangerous animals, but down here she wouldn't know.

The trees were towering over her had to make deep shade. Between trees the wiggled the paths that some animals made. It seems that many animals lived here as she could hear all kinds of sounds around. 

Already a while ago she realized one interesting fact. All planes had the same or similar plants but some had different kinds of size or texture but the same color, taste and nurturing abilities. Some are even better in other worlds and some wee tastier from low-level worlds. 

But the most important part is that all of them looked the same. So when she saw mushrooms she knew from before all over the forest her heart started beating faster. Then she started searching the floor. Berries, herbs, healing plants, wild vegetables. She needed them all.

On her way towards the river, she saw some sort of chickens but the size of those was quite, scary. Those birds were actually quite aggressive, but due to their small size, they were always scared of bigger animals. But here, the normal chicken was her hight. Looking at a whole pack of those her back got cold.

She slowly backed off and started running hearing multiple sounds that were hunting her. ''Stupid, I am really stupid.'' Passing all those trees she just realized that she could just climb them up. 

With a hit of her leg, she jumped dups and started using the lianas to climb higher from the ground. As soon she was on safe height she released her breath. She could clearly see them jumping up like a pack of wolfs trying to get her off the safe branch. Luckily they didn't know how to fly, right?

She looked at the chickens down not realizing how dangerous her position really was.
