just something fun to do since it's always been that way

And so Jorb sayeth to the first Hearthlings, "Take these weapons and you can see that the creatures of the forest can be as delicious as they are dangerous."

"Kill it and grill it"

the children went out into the forest and captured rabbits, and peeled the skins from the flesh to make leather, and the next day, they made slings. they filled their pockets with rocks, and boarded their rowboat. for hours they travelled down the river until they saw the great beast. raising their weapons, they fired volley after volley of pebbles at it. after several hours, one of the rocks hit it's mark, and so the bear became mildly annoyed and sauntered over to the riverbank to glare at them. for several weeks the children flung rocks at the bear, mildy scratching it every few hours.

You missed the part where they put up signposts all around the bear

no i didn't because that isn't necessary

sorry for the derail here but Sab's post made this pop into my head, ever wonder why rabbit fur is always q10, but your first fox fur can be as low as 6 if you don't invest in survival(or even if you do 13 at the highest since you haven't found a stone node yet)? almost makes it not worth it to skin them early except for palisade leather...

as far as lore text for hunting, I think the best line would be 'kill and eat!'.

[bitza]

you can also make fox skin into hide straps for rope, dream catchers, or literally any other thing that requires string. you can get 4 string from a fox hide so they aren't entirely useless.

also rabbit fur can be as low as q5 if you have no survival

survival doesn't matter for rabbit fur, its always q10...of course with 1 survival the stuff you make from it will suck.

and yea I wasn't thinking about all the useless stuff that you can make from hides when I posted that, was more or less pointing out how as far as quality goes(for noobs/early game) rabbit fur is usually better than any thing you can hunt because it isn't softcapped by anything...and I think thats weird
