A Bit of Downtime

Álarr was enjoying himself at the festival. There always seemed to be so much going on and he was glad he was old enough to go but it was a shame he still had to be escorted. Valdís was some where nearby but he'd had a moment to settle down and get a bit of quiet time before it was time for the tournament to start. He pulled some lamb's ear out of his pack and laid it out on a scrap of deer hide. It was soft and lovely and made for wonderful bandages but it would only keep for so long. He supposed there might be some other uses for it as well if he opted to try drying it. He sat there mulling it over, listening to the sounds of celebration nearby.
