The last straw

Mercury was still a stranger in these lands. The events for this season seemed strange to his eyes, but he participated all the same. Keeping an eye on the going ons as he explored and decided what it was he wished to do. When the straw-making event appeared he had jokingly offered to take Anthea, and she had readily agreed.

Which led the two wolves to the stone steppe - and the straw making competition. He looked at their station, the straw and other bits tidily placed for their use. “Any ideas where to start?” he asked. Perhaps her clever way with wraths would be a benefit here. He’d never tried to construct something with straw first. He had a few ideas for the basics, but he left the floor for Anthea to start, interested to see what she came up with.
