They ate a morning porridge of einkorn, chopped acorns, and some kind of mashed root vegetable. While everyone was eating, Agan announced that Woday had been accepted as Pell’s apprentice. Despite Woday’s fear that there would be objections to taking on a new member at the beginning of the hungry season, no one complained.

Instead, Deltin and Manute hooted. Manute said, “I need an apprentice if I’m going to make leather out of all these skins we’ve piled up.”

Pell said, “Woday says he’s willing to work hard, doing whatever we need him to do in order to earn his keep. He wants to learn to set bones, but,” Pell shrugged, “since most of the time there aren’t any bones to be set, you can have him help you make leather when you need extra hands.”

Woday started to worry that he was going to spend the winter doing nothing but making leather. “I do want to learn how to do some of the other things Pell is supposed to be famous for,” he said, trying not to sound plaintive.

Deltin laughed and raised an eyebrow at Pell, “Listen, he’s already backpedaling on that promise to work hard!”

Feeling his cheeks warm, Woday said, “I’ll work hard! I’d like to learn how to make leather. I just want to make sure I learn some of these other things too… not only how to make leather, but…” he trailed off.

The whole group laughed then, and Woday realized they were just teasing him. Pell said, “It’s okay, I want to learn how to make leather too.”

Deltin hooted, “No you don’t! No one wants to learn how to make leather, it’s hard work!”
