"I see. Perhaps I can join you the next time you go foraging? I admit, I'm not exactly well versed in seeking the plants I need out in the wild. I'm too used to cultivating them myself." Which is true, Stolas has his own atrium back home filled with all manners of plants. Most of them rather deadly or carnivorous.

"Who knows, I might find something worth cultivating on my own. I've already started with some vegetables and herbs that I acquired from town. Oh! And a few things I've liberated from the gardens, but, I could always use more of an excuse to expand."

"I do not claim to be an expert by any stretch of the imagination." A needed disclaimer, as far as he is concerned. "But I would be delighted to show you what I know. Now that it's started to get a little warmer, I will probably divide the time I've been dedicating between that and occasionally hunting or fishing. ...More likely fishing."

Too many people here could transform and he had considered the possibility that he might accidentally catch on to someone who do not know the spell well enough to speak up. Part of adjusting to that will be studying the telltale signs of a normal quarry and one that might be a person.

He also just...prefers the convenience of buying already butchered meat. He knows how to do it, how to use every part of a deer to last him and a child through several lean months.

But fishing might be relaxing.

"Then I would delighted to be taught whatever you know and I admit, I've never been fishing before. There's not much of a need for it in Hell of all places, especially on the ring I reside on." Stolas shrugs slightly.

To be fair, the nearest large body of water is in the Envy ring, several rings down from where he resided in Pride. "We simply need to wait for warmer weather and then we can go out together."

"I would say that it tends to be very quiet, but I feel like that might jinx the experience in a place like this." Just his luck and a fish might wind up being more trouble than a deer.

Spring was swiftly approaching, so the best time to do it might be sooner rather than later.

"But I suppose lessons in foraging or fishing in exchange for a lecture or two in astronomy would be quite fair." He smiles.
