Chapter Ten

After a few days of hard work I managed to catch up on a little sleep. The land had been quiet overnight, and after dressing and getting breakfast in the morning I called a meeting in the map room among the six of us.

‘I don’t know if this is going to work,’ I said, activating the map, ‘but I need to know. I need each of you to place your hand on this pedestal. If you have knowledge of other areas it might help us plot out the surrounding lands.’

Ariadne went first, and even though the map offered up the opportunity to upload knowledge, nothing changed.

Everyone took a turn, even Alorion, but nothing happened.

‘Damn,’ I muttered. ‘I think knowledge of the land can only be uploaded once somebody has become a member of the tribe.’

‘Can I make a suggestion?’ Tormus said, raising his hand. ‘This area here, the Rourke Homestead, may be of some use to us. We are beginning to grow a wider variety of food, with the tomatoes and potential others in the future should the ground accept it, but it would be wise to also add some meat to compliment it. Homesteads almost always have pastures, and pastures often contain animals, particularly ones that graze. If this pasture was marked off by whoever created it, it would likely be for some important reason. There must be something of value there.’

‘I haven’t had wild boar in weeks,’ Lara said.

‘Indeed,’ Ariadne agreed, ‘And that taurem meat we had a few nights ago was magnificent. Our grass pasture on the south side would be an excellent area in which to raise them.’

‘Taurems…’ Alorion groaned. ‘Oh, lord, the shit…’

‘The fact that that’s one of the main things you can remember from your previous life seriously worries me,’ I said.

‘That’s how bad it was. Waves of the stuff. Like I said before, wonderful meat, but it comes at the cost of burning off the hairs in your nostrils from a distance of twenty yards.’

I dwelled on the thought of raising and killing an animal for its meat. I had killed plenty of humans, but never an animal – not deliberately, at least.

‘I guess I’d know how to kill one,’ I said, ‘but when it comes to prepping one for consumption I have no idea. Does anybody know how to do it?’

‘I’m reasonably adept,’ Lara said. ‘Hunting comes with being able to prepare animals.’

‘It doesn’t just go for food,’ Eri said. ‘Every part of an animal can be used. Hide can be used to create clothing. Even the bones can be ground down for bone meal. It would be excellent to utilise this for the tomatoes in particular. It can increase the speed of growth. Even the manure, as Alorion says, can be used for fertilising the land. Or we can trade it all away for profit.’

‘Every part of this sounds good,’ I said, ‘Apart from the slaughtering part of course, but we can get to that later… And the heaps of shit.
