Wicker Man (The Bees! The Bees!)

Ah, so the dog wanted to bring honey back to his children. It was a sweet gesture. He seemed like a nice pup, and so she would do her best to help him. As the pair moved towards the buzzing, the hive was very evidently lodged within one tree. Some time in the past, the tree had split. Perhaps it had been struck by lightning or some sort of parasite had eaten it from the inside. Either way, it seemed like the perfect place for bees to call home.

The giant woman folded her haunches, bringing herself to a seated position. She honestly had no idea where to go from here. She had found the source of the bees and that was as far as her plan went. Casting her singular gaze towards the smaller canine, she questioned him. "Do you have any ideas on how to go about this? I'd rather not spend my day getting stung by a whole hive."

If Iolaire were here, she would build a fire at the base of the tree and smoke the bees out of the hive. It would be easy then to collect honey and honeycomb. Resin remembered her daughter having mentioned something similar. She, however, was incapable of making fire, and thus was useless in such an endeavor.
