You make your way over to the stump and sit down, much less smoothly than you intended. It feels good to rest, however briefly. You take a swallow from your canteen and savor the refreshing hydration.

You look around some more, not quite ready to get up yet and notice, amongst the young trees and fallen branches, a curiously straight length of wood with an almost manufactured look to it. It is just a few yards away.
