#barnyard animals

wow these chickens are everywhere by now—

ERAGON: Has a chicken under each arm and is trying to wrangle a third. He is covered in mud and feathers.

MURTAGH: Still chasing chicken #1.

ARYA: Has caught way too many already and no one’s quite sure how but there’s more than enough to spare.

RORAN: Is repairing the barn.

ORIK: Shouting and cursing at the chicken he is dragging back to the barn.

ANGELA: Is scolding the chickens into army formation.

NASUADA: Is not getting involved in this physically, but is pointing out all the chickens’ hiding places to everyone alongside Elva, who is gaslighting the chickens.

GARZHVOG: Trying to chase the chickens into the barn. Now despises chickens.

OROMIS: *nods sagely* they will handle this very well. *walks away.*

SAPHIRA and FÍRNEN: Watching with immense amusement, occasionally scaring the chickens so they’ll run faster and liven up the game.

THORN: *stares in intense concern*

ORRIN: Is using a concoction that smells like chicken pheromones to lure the chickens where he wants them.
