Hear the thunder

Stjarna got to work assembling supplies. They pulled out a few sizeable sticks and began to the extra branches off of them. Once that was done Star turned their attention to the pitch. There was a small bowl full of prepared pitch but they needed to heat it up so they could get gobs to cool and dry on the sticks. The pitch on the torch sticks could then be lit on fire. As Star didn't want to set the whole bowl on fire they were careful to heat the pitch slowly so it was more malleable. Once the torches were done Star looked back to Sirius for the next set of instructions.
