I am preparing a bow staff for seasoning--that is, it needs to dry out over time in order to be made into a bow later.

Be careful not to cut yourself.

[chasseurdebeaute]

Fufu, I'll be sure to take care. I was thinking of moving on to arrows once this is ready to set. Have you had a decent enough supply?

[heavyliesthecrown]

[He sighs, slinging his quiver off of his back.]

Some I have retrieved from the animals we have hunted.

[His supply is looking low.]

I did attempt to make a few of my own, but-

[He pulls one of his homemade arrows out.

. . . Attempts were made.]

This was the most I could manage at my skill level. I am not sure how useful any of the ones I have are when it comes to creatures in the mist, either. I do not have any more poison left from Persephone-san.

So... I am a little worried that I will be a liability to everyone.

[chasseurdebeaute]

[Taking the arrows to look them over with a critical eye]

You are feeling your limitations. Mm, that is a valuable skill, to be able to accurately measure yourself against something you intend to face. I imagine it is frustrating though?

[heavyliesthecrown]

[ He nods, before his shoulders slump a bit and his gaze turns downward.]

I feel so incredibly discouraged. I have tried. I have tried so very hard to keep up with everyone. But it feels like no matter what I do, it is just not enough.

I have nothing left in my toolkit. My speed, agility, and strength- all of that disappeared with the ears and tail. Even the trade I had made for the ability to manipulate sound has entirely vanished.

[Even the mer spell... when everyone had gone questing in the ocean, they had left him behind.

. . . And he is no longer anyone's "Little Cat".]

I cannot keep up. This place does not feel suited to people like me. To 'normies'. I am sorry. I know that I must sound so self-deprecating right now. I just wanted to be useful. I want to give back just as everyone else has done for me. Just once, I want to be relied upon. To be necessary for someone. Anyone at all.

But all of the power I thought I had finally gathered to meaningfully help vanished in the blink of an eye. And my heart is heavy with the loss of Mute-kun and Leo-- Tocatta-san.

I am painfully afraid that one day you will all realize how inadequate I am, and I will lose the love of even Bluebell, which is all that I have left to cling to.
