camp vargas ~the happening returns~ 2-2 "leave it to me"

[mandytl]

Location: Dwarfs’ Mine - Campsite

Vil: … Anyhow, we drove off the fae.

Film Club Member A: But why’d they even attack us in the first place?

Grim: It was ‘cuz, uhm…

Azul: They attempted to put out our campfire as well. Perhaps it was the similarity to mountain fires that occurred in the past that sparked their rage.

Vil: Come to think, we learned about this in class. Back when the mines were still active…

The miners’ campfire caused a fire to break out and devastate the forest.

Since then, the fae here have started referring to any tangible spark as the “red flower”...

> Oh, yeah. You’re right.

> I remember.

Grim: I-I totally didn’t forget either, ‘cause uh—yeah! We had a class on it!

Ortho: They might return and give it another go if they’re that scared of it happening.

We’ve got to rely on the fire to keep us warm at night, and having to relight it would be a headache, so we better keep a close watch on it.

Vil: I couldn’t agree more. Still, we can’t all remain in the same spot.

A handful of you can stay here while the rest of us deal with the other challenges.

Film Club Member A: Right!

Idia: Oh, I’ve got the Board Games Club’s campfire covered. Just leave it to me. Fhee…!

Azul: … Fine. I’ll let you handle this matter, Idia-san. In the meantime…

Please keep the fire as modest as possible so that we can save firewood during the warm, sunny daytime.

Searching for firewood is no easy task, so we should save ourselves the trouble.

Don’t get carried away and let the fire build itself! I’m counting on you to maintain our campfire.

Idia: I’ve got this. My most potent weapon is improved fuel efficiency!

Grim: All this schmuck cares about is the campfire…
