Pierre steps outside to get some fresh air. "Today seems like a good day to learn something new" He looks at his staff proudly, "You've been great to me all this time, but you're flammable" as his face becomes plain. "I think it's be a good idea to have a backup plan in the event that I need another. Maintenant, I just need someone to teach me to craft in the ways of wood."

Volk passes by stops for a second to wonder why Pierre is starring at his staff and talking to it. After a moment Volk remembers this is holdfast, and people speak to inanimate objects all the time here. So he starts walking back to the earth circle.

"Ah, monsieur Volk!" Pierre excitedly bolts towards him. "Just the man I wanted to talk to. You see, I'm very interested in learning some new skills, and I've seen you do one of em before. Could you teach me how to tie knots like the way you detained those persons? And maybe help me out with some woodworking techniques, or deffer me to someone who can?"

"I can teach you how to tie rope, but be warned that after 1 minute someone can easily untie themselves."

"But first we must teach you how to get out of being tied up!"

And that is the last thing you remember before waking up with ropes around your body, the notts tight around your arms. The room you are in is un familiar. There is no door and no window, but through the cracks in the wood of the room you are in you can see light. The rope has you tied to a chair.

(After you are out of the ropes stop and I will continue narrating your training.)

"Merde"
Pierre collectively assess his situation and the few words Volk said to him before. He begins to squirm and wiggle to find any kind of slack. After some time, he finally manages to pull a rope over his shoulder, followed by the rest of it. Breaking from from the rope Pierre stands up and rubs his arms.

Next the walls are very stiff but on the wall you see a plaque detailing how to preform various knots, then on the roof you can see there is a hook hanging from the ceiling and a hatch with light coming from it, on the floor you can see a pile of ropes, it looks like one could make a rope ladder with the instructions on the plaque.

Pierre sees the plaque on the wall and is grateful there is pictures on it to help him. Carefully going back and forth between the plaque and tying his own, he makes his own rope ladder. Eyeing the hatch in the ceiling and the hook hanging from it, he flings the rope to the hook. Giving it a secure tug he climbs out of his (hopefully) temporary prison.

(OOG I'm always hungry haha)

As Pierre climbs out, his stomach gurgles. "Mon Dieu, how long was I out?"

When you exit the small hut you look around and see only sky, when you look down you realize that you are suspended over a cliff, looking at the roof below you, you see another plaque, and more knots, and spare peice of wood, this one looks to have a design for a wooden swing and ropes to connect to a small wooden ladder that you must make using the diagram. It has a picture of someone swinging forward and then backwards off the cliff

"This seems a bit extreme" as Pierre chuckled to himself. Following the instructions extremely carefully, so as not to have this end in tragedy, Pierre completes his task. Doubles checks all his works again. "Maybe it'll be fun" he jokes to himself.
As he starts to swing forward, Pierre lets go a scream. As the momentum starts to go back, his screams become more gleeful as he knows he didn't mess up.
After calming down his nerves, he stand on top of the cliff.

Looking around the cliff you see that it is just a pillar of stone jutting out of the ground overlooking a beach and ocean. If you look down you see a large quantity of rope, a plaque, a pile of wood, and a metal hook in the rock, descending the cliff. This plaque details the forming of a harness using wooden planks you find in a pile with some nails, and rope. Stop while you're descending the cliff towards the sandy beach.

-stomach grumbles again-
"I hope this is almost over" as his hunger begins to get to the point where it starts to hurt.
Looking at the material and the plaque again, Pierre starts his crafting. Feeling more confident with every session. After some time and using all the materials, he begins his decent down the cliff, admiring the view on the way down.

Half way down the cliff you run out of rope, looking around you notice a grappling hook and more rope, also you notice a metal pole sticking out of the rock surface to your left just a few meters up and away. Then when you look down you notice a pit filled with large red things, upon closer inspection you notice that they are rats in a pit below you, and they look ravenous. Then on the top you see Volk, he walks over to the rope you are hanging onto and cuts a slit in it and then disappears, you can feel the rope beginning to give.
(You can climb down from the rod, when you reach the ground stop.)

"Triste de tabarnaque!" Pierce immediately grabs the rope and grapple and instinctively ties ten together. Giving it a quick whirl he latches onto the metal pole just in time as his harness fell loose into the rat pit. Finally reaching the ground he catches his breath

When you turn around you see Volk varnishing a chair, he is sitting on the beach. He looks over at Pierre, and is about to say something but then stops, and pulls a lever. Then the ground under you falls in and you are in a fifteen foot hole. Surrounded in one final plaque, wood, and nails. On this plaque it details how to make a a ladder.
(Stop when you get out)

Groaning from the fall, Pierre picks himself back up. Looking at the materials, then the plaque. "I hope there's gonna be a nail leftover so that I may hurt you with it"
After following the plaque's instructions he constructs his ladder. No nails or wood planks were leftover. After climbing out, Pierre stand alert, trying to prepare himself for what might come next.

As Pierre leaves the hole he sees Volk sitting on a chair at a table, a barbecue next to him, and a steak dinner on the table. And a pile of wood. There is a chair opposite to Volk, with a dinner in front of it. There is a pile of logs to the left. Volk motions for Pierre to take a seat.

Expecting some kind of trap, Pierre cautiously sit down, but can't help but eye the steak. Then turns his attention to Volk, not saying a word, just a 1000 yard, empty stare.

(Read to the end)
Volk begins eating his steak.
"I hope you like blue, I can put it back on the grill if you like. After lunch we can begin making furniture, and weapons...

But you think something will happen don't you, you see this is all a dream you passed out on your way out of the inn, I am your subconscious, I am here to tell you that you forgot what you came here for, and this puller is your mental fortitude...

I'm just screwing with you, you've only been kidnapped, I'll teach you to make furniture and weapons after lunch."
He smiles.

The 1000 yard stare continues as Pierre eats his steak. The taste is awful but he's at the point of hunger where he don't care. He finishes his dinner in half the amount of time it takes Volk, and gives a subtle burp of contempt. "I hope you don't treat all the ladies like this" as a small smirk appears in Pierre's face.

"Well you asked me out, it's only fare that I get to pick the place. also you had horrible table manners, it might have something to do with how you've been out for 3 days." After lunch Volk hands Pierre a log and teaches him how to make a chair.

"Sure, let's go with that"
Pierre takes the log and follows Volk's instructions.

Then he teaches you about making wooden weapons
(You have rope tieing 1 and woodworking 1)

"Merci beaucoup Monsieur Volk. This training regime will certainly will be remembered, if not for the training, at least for the 'atmosphere'."
