Thus, you lift off from the clearing's floor into a tree, and jump with your wings from canopy to canopy until you arrive at the riverbank. You touch ground, look around to ensure your privacy, and approach the cool waters. Your poncho, hood, and satchel are set aside as you hold the tough orange berry's skin and slide into a shallow cubby in the river. With a smooth stone in hand, you scrub grime from your chitinous body. The hair on your head and collar is washed, straightened, and cut to a roughly even length with another sharp rock. Effort is always made for your hair to look like mother's, even if you don't think you look pretty with it like she does. Lastly, you lie on your back and gently float on the water's surface, unwinding after a day of strange discoveries.
Time passes before you stand up and step out of the water, and shake yourself like the four-legged hunters whenever they get wet. You flap your wings, spreading and stretching your limbs and neck to catch as much wind as possible to dry. After a few minutes of flapping, your wings slow to a stop. A long, thick strand of grass is tied at the back of your hair to hold it back. Content with your bath, you unfurl the orange skin and rub the inside layer onto your body. Soon, you smell like the orange berry itself, and are pleasantly surprised to find that your body's solid surface gained an unblemished sheen. Indeed, you are squeaky clean.

- You used one Tough Orange Berry Skin.
You pull a waxy leaf from your satchel, dip it in the river's water, and scrub your teeth attentively. Your mind wanders as you think of the big colored leaf and the places you can find more food. There are three places you consider scouting for your next batch. To the west of your home and past the river, the trail intersects the long rock next to one dot, which itself is near another gathering of giant trees. Another dot just east of that is next to a new trail, and has more symbols than the first. The last dot has a big green rectangle pointing at it. You're not sure what it means, but you imagine it must be very important if its different from the other dots.
As you toss away the waxy leaf and don your clothes, you decide that you will head to
