Result: Your handler hikes up the creek, but doesn't see anything that looks like ore.
It took longer than she liked, but eventually Phaedra got her Hounds back on task. Which was still walking alongside the creek. Every now and then they'd still glance at the slope above, but whatever they had seen before was gone now. She pondered if it had a been a berdir, or a duskrat or something else. Not very many people had been into the valley before, so who knew what really lived out here.
While she'd only been to Ynnis and Azzaru, and the surrounding countryside, she'd heard from others that were other creatures that lived elsewhere on Itona. But you had to walk an awfully long way to run into them.
Result: Your handler wanders alongside the creek but doesn't notice anything of interest.
Phaedra and the Hounds continued their stroll down the creek bank until Tangie started barking inconsolably. She strained against her lead, staring intently into the scrub higher up the slope. Within the span of a few breaths Interloper and Black Gold began barking as well. Soon all three were pulling, and forcing Phaedra to take several steps forward.
The three Hounds were deeply focused on whatever was up there, and try her best she was struggling to get them to move on. While trying to hold their leads she fished into her pocket, looking for treats. "C'mon Hounds. Lets not run up there. It's steep." Slowly but surely she lured them forward.
Result:Your Hound starts barking at something in the scrub, but your handler can't make anything out.
Phaedra decides to cross over to the other bank of the creek. She'd been on this one all the way from the base camp, and the creek wasn't all that wide, but perhaps the other bank hadn't been very well scoured. She splashed through the water quickly, Hounds quick on her heels.
Not a single foot print was visible on the further bank. Phaedra smiled. Maybe there'd be even more loot on this side. Almost as soon as the thought finished she noticed another ore chunk in the creek. She gleefully collected it, and dropped it into her bag. It clinked against the others. Roderick really had been right about this place.
Result: Your handler notices a glimmer in the water! Receive an Ore!
The group continued their leisurely wander down the creek. Phaedra didn't think there was much reason to rush. They'd spent days cooped up, so they might as well enjoy the search now. Her Hounds seemed to be calming down, now that they'd been stretching their legs for a while.
Every now and then one of them would pause to drink out of the creek. The water was clear and moving well, so she didn't see any reason to stop them. During one such pause she noticed a leafy plant sprouting from the bank. It reminded her of an illustration she'd seen back in Ynnis, so she plucked it to add to her bag.
Result: As your handler wanders along the creek they notice a small grouping of herbs. Receive an Azzaruan plant
Suddenly Black Gold plunged off the creek bank, and into the water. Phaedra gasped, startled by the Hound's sudden movement. Her other two Hounds stared at their packmate, and tilted her heads. Black Gold's head darted into the water, and emerged with a chunk of ore in his jaws. He hopped out of the creek and dropped the shiny chunk at Phaedra's feet.
She was delighted. "Oh, thanks Black Gold! What a good Hound!" She gave him a firm pat as she scooped up her new loot. "Really living up to your name, aren't you?"
She glanced at her other two Hounds, who were still in the water. "You're both good too, just to be clear. No favourites here."
