She ruffled through the plants.  Pushing them aside and being careful not to pluck one by accident.  She saw a few cute flowers but ignored them because this wasn't the time to get distracted.  She kept looking hoping to find it soon.  She only had one left, what would she do with them after.  Would it help her make decent stuff?  She hoped it would.  She started to day dream about all the stuff she was going to make, all the clothes and dolls and just random stuff.  Then she noticed that in the middle of her day dreaming about making stuff she had accidentally picked a plant.  She sighed as she looked at the plant not expecting much.  Looking at the plant she saw that it would actually work and she now had all of the plants.  Happy and feeling successful she ran towards the shop in the starting city eager to continue learning the trade of tailoring.

She reached down and randomly picked out a plant. She looked at it for a while skeptically, wondering if this plant was good too.  She really hoped that she did not find a patch full of a bunch of duds and one good plants what a waste of time that would be.  She pulled the cotton out quickly and discovered that it was also a good plant.  She was ecstatic almost being done with collecting plants she decided to take a little break and chill.  She lied down in the plants and thought about what had recently happened.  But after a few minutes realized that she got distracted and had to finish this quest no matter what.  She got up with determination plastered all over her face and searched for more plants.

She walked a little further into the center of the patch.  She scanned it very quickly and a cotton plant caught her eye.  It almost seemed to glow asking for her to pick this one plant in particular.  She noticed that there seemed to be a bunch more plants around the seemingly glowing plant, so she reasoned that she had unknowingly walked into a field of cotton plants.  She ran towards the plant that seemed to want to be picked.  She picked it up and the cotton in it was wonderful.  She found one of them and was now in a patch full of a bunch of plants.  This might be easier than she originally thought it would be.

Esmeralda walked into the patch and looked around.  She looked as hard as she could but was having no luck.  She saw a plant that seemed close to representing a cotton plant and tried to harvest it.  When she tried to harvest it she discovered that it was a dead plant.  Somehow the cotton inside the plant was bad and not useful for anything.  However, this allowed her to discover that she does have some kind of a chance at finding the cotton she needs in this patch.  So she kept looking as much as she could to find the cotton as quickly as possible.

Esmeralda reached the border of the city and looked around hoping that she would easily be able to find an area that seemed to have cotton plants.  Why would she make me find cotton if the shopkeeper already has some she wondered as she walked along the border between the field and starting city.  Then she saw it the field that she was looking for.  It seemed to have what looked like cotton plants in it and she figured that it would be the best place to go check for the cotton plants that she needs to find. Esmeralda noticed that other plants where there too that seemed like it will make the search harder than she wanted.  Well, it's time to begin she thought as she stepped into the field of mixed plants, hoping that the cotton would be easy to collect.

The shopkeeper looked at Esmeralda and congratulated her on a job well done with splitting the plants to make sinew. Then she decided that Esmeralda should learn to make her own cotton as well.

"Esmeralda you should go find 3 cotton plants and harvest the cotton from them." 

Another search and find quest Esmeralda thought sadly to herself. "Okay I will go find 3 plants and harvest the cotton from them." She said very quickly running towards the door eager to get this over with.

Esmeralda figured that the best place to find the cotton plants would be outside town in the grass land area right outside town and so she plotted her course quickly and left off towards this area hoping to god that this will be over with quicker than it was with the plants earlier.

Esmeralda took the first plant and pulled it slowly apart creating a decent to pass for her first time batch of sinew.

Esmeralda picked this one up and peeled it apart perfectly to create sinew it seemed like it was getting easier to her and she had one more left for practice these 2 plants created more sinew that she thought that they would though.

Esmeralda picked this one up and also created sinew from it pretty easily pleasing herself and the shop keeper that was watching her separate the plants out to create sinew.

Esmeralda made it back to the starting city and wasted no time in chasing down the shop person.  She greeted her with a slight nod of the head and a "Look I got what you wanted! I got all the materials!" Esmeralda shouted very joyfully.  "Good, just enough maybe a little much plant sinew but you know whatever." The lady said with a laugh.  

"Okay, so, what do I do now" Esmeralda said hardly able to contain her eagerness at being here after collecting everything that she had needed too.

"First you have to hand me the tusk and I will make the needle for you so that you have something reliable to work with." She said softly while putting out a hand to receive the boar tusk from Esmeralda.

Esmeralda handed her the boar tusk and watched her craft a needle out of it with much care before she handed Esmeralda the needle and gave her, her next instructions.

"Now take the plants and pull them apart to create the sinew but do it carefully"

She was walking around.  Looking as hard as she could all she needed was one.  It was the number that was starting to drive her crazy.  Only one and she was having such a difficult time finding it.  Things were starting to look up though.  She had found everything else.  And now she saw one, the one that could possibly be the last one she needed.  She rushed towards it eager as a beaver but carefully because she didn't want to step on this one.  She gently pulled it out of the ground.  It almost seemed to glow, but in a good way.  She figured that it would do and put it with the others.  Eagerly she ran off towards the starting city.  She had found what she needed and now was going to tell the shop owner.  She couldn't wait! She was almost a tailor.

Esmeralda found another plant close to where the last one was.  When she tried to pick this one up though it faded away.  She stared at the place the plant had been in shock.  Not believing that this had happened.  She swiped her hand back and forth around the area refusing to believe that the plant was not there.  It had been there a second ago but now it was not.  She feared that she was starting to lose her mind being alone for so long could do that she guessed.  Having no choice she continued her search for the plant very slowly and carefully she did not want to miss this plant not now after all that she has done to find it.

She was now skipping with joy.  She had one left! She was almost done.  She couldn't wait to be praised by the shop owner about how nice the plants that she found where.  She wanted to find this last one and then go back.  She checked making sure she put her dagger back next to her side.  Without realizing it she came upon another plant that didn't seem to be bug infested so she walked toward it.  Only to lose focus and step on it.  Completely crushing it with a nice crushing mixed into it. She fell down not believing that she had stepped on the plant.  She could no longer use the plant because she had stomped on it.  She wouldn't let this affect her mood though and kept looking for another plant while having a blast looking for it.

Esmeralda was even happier than before.  She walked along singing songs getting side  tracked and still looking.  She couldn't explain it but she was feeling a lot better about getting her plants.  She only had a few left and she has been having a lot of fun.  She was still wary of boars because she no longer wanted to fight any but if it can't be avoided then it can't be avoided.  She took her eyes off the ground for just a second and then fell down.  She had tripped over a root from a nearby tree.  However, when she was on the ground she noticed that there was a plant right in front of her.  She gave it a tug and discovered that it would just fine for the reason that she needed the plant. She stashed it with her other stuff and stared at a butterfly for a little bit before continuing her search for the plants.  The search reminded her of a movie she watched once called The Search For the Holy Grail.

Esmeralda hopped along the flowers she had killed 2 boars and got a tusk from it.  She was beyond excited.  Now all that was left was to collect the rest of the rest of the plants.  She only had three left only three.  She kept repeating this to herself.  Not wanting to lose hope of finding them all and getting this over with.  Then she reached down and picked up a plant that she thought would work.  To her surprise it actually did work.  She had now found another one.  It was looking up to her she was starting to earn back everything that she needed.  But she could not become side tracked just yet.  She must find the other two plants remaining her work wont be done until she finds those.

The boar seemed to be sizing her up this time.  When it ran to attack her it hit.  Knocking her back away from it a little bit.  Not enough to actually do anything but enough to get her guard up and the boar noticed this.

Esmeralda freaked out when the boar got a hit on her.  This time it still hurt but as not as badly as the one earlier did.  She jumped toward the boar swinging her dagger in front of her and shouting widely hoping to gosh that she would freak the boar out or even better kill it.  Then it happened. She killed it, she was overjoyed.  She looked at the boar hoping to god that it would have a tusk she could take.  It did; it had a horn that she could take from it.  Seizing the chance she took the horn and stashed it with the other two plants that she had.

The boar stood there.  Panting as well as a boar could.  The cut on its side slowly wearing it down.  It moved to attack her again seeing that her attack missed it.  The boar missed her as well with its attack by swinging its head.  It didn't hit anything it just kind of swung through air creating useless noise and a nice little wind.

Esmeralda saw it, her chance for a hit.  However, when she went to attack it she stumbled a little bit not enough to knock her off her feet but enough to cause her attack too miss once again.  She was saddened by this but at least she didn't get hit like that last time. She wanted this battle to be over with already.

The boar turned around in a quick swift motion.  Esmeralda had no time to reach at all when the boar hit her in the leg. The boar seemed happy to hit this girl this time.  The girl now had the boars full attention.  The boar seemed to angry at her due to the large gash she left in its side.  Causing the boar to hit her harder than it probably would have before.

The hit hurt her more than she thought it would and she found that her reflexes were lacking because of that.  When she swung to hit the boar she missed by what seemed like a mile and almost hit herself.  She was shocked that she did so poorly a few seconds ago she had just left a large gash on the side of the boar.  It seemed like the roles were reversing but she couldn't let this happen.  Not yet someone was going to die and Esmeralda knew that it wouldn't be herself.

The boar looked right at her.  As if it was trying to stare into her soul and then walked right past her.  Having tried to hit and miss it decided to go back to sleep paying the girl no mind.  It must have thought that there was no point in fighting her vs taking a mid afternoon nap. 

Esmeralda could not let this happen.  She was so enraged about not being able to find any plants besides 2 that she hit the boar as hard as she could with her dagger when the boar was walking by.  She hit harder than she thought that she would or even could causing the boar to knocked sideways a bit because of the fact that she hit the boar in the side leaving a large gash. Then Esmeralda noticed that she had leveled.

She got up trying to scrap what was still together of her saneness from looking for these darned plants.  Not only was she sad now but she was angry.  She wasnt even paying attention to where she was going when she saw one.  Another plant.  How silly she thought, plants are everywhere. She walked toward not realizing in her rage that she had kicked a boar that was sleeping by accident. The boar now wide awake attacked her but missed still being tired still.

Esmeralda was caught completely off guard by the boar and when it tried to attack her she retaliated with a sad swipe that missed the boar completely.  She couldn't even get to the plant that she needed much less fight a boar right now.

She stared sadly at the broken plant in her hand not noticing that half of it had fallen from her hand and onto the ground.  She searched around herself looking for another plant.  She was getting desperate "any plant would do just one any one" she said sadly.  Then she noticed it.  Right at her feet was a plant.  She reached down and grabbed.  Her spirits high and hopes even higher.  This is it she thought this is finally the plant I need she told herself happily.  Then upon closer inspection she realized that this was the exact same plant she had found earlier.  She had picked up the other half that broke and fell.  It wasnt a new plant, but the same old useless plant. She was sad almost to point where she would have cried.

Esmeralda was all excited from her victory.  She happily resumed her search for the plants.  She was growing impatient though, she hadnt found any for a while and was starting to doubt that she would be able to find the rest.  It was starting to get dark out and her luck was looking even more dismal than ever.  She was starting to grow a grudge against this search and collect quest.  She wondered if it was even going to be worth it in the end after she found all of them.  As long as she did not pick out another boar by accident it should all work out.  Not like that would happen again she laughed to herself.  She saw another plant.  This time she looked about the area and seeing no boars she grabbed the plant.  In her haste she accidentally ripped the plant apart causing it to be worthless.

The boar made a loud noise and prompted another attack at Esmeralda.  However, on the way down from it rear, instead of hitting her it simply stopped in front of her and dug at the ground.  Almost as if she was just a pesky gnat that was bumping into him.  

Esmeralda was not about to let this boar ignore her.  With one final rush she ran in and stabbed her dagger into the top of his head in a really quick but nice and efficient motion.  The boar let out a little squeal and then it was all over.  Esmeralda had won.  This overjoyed her and she almost forgot to look for a tusk that would be useful.  However, to her dismay this boar had no tusks, at least not any that were useful. She was a little angry but hey she had fun.

The boar shook its head.  The hit Esmeralda landed seemed to accomplice nothing but make the boar more angry.  The boar swung its head at her but the hit she landed earlier must have messed with its vision because it missed her and hit the flowers and plants next to her with a quick but clumsy movement.

Esmeralda watched the attack miss.  She was sad about the earlier failure with collecting the plant.  She could not let something like that distract her though.  Not in the middle of a battle.  She quickly took another swipe at the boar landing another hit on the side of its head causing the boar the rear back in pain.  She laughed a little starting to enjoy this, it was a nice change of pace from all the searching she had done earlier.  She watched the boar and got ready for him/her to attack again.

Esmeralda was walking very slowly and carefully so as not to ruin her chances with finding the plant.  When all of a sudden she found one.  She could not believe it, it was almost too good to be true.  She reached down to pull it out.  She tugged very hard.  It almost seemed like it was attached to something.  She pulled harder and harder until at last she discovered that it wasn't a plant, well it was a plant but not the right kind or the right kind of a situation.  Not only had she not found the right plant but now she staring at a boar.  

The boar looked at her and took a half hearted swing at Esmeralda that missed.  Esmeralda was shocked but figured the best option would be too fight back.  She pulled out her dagger and sliced at the boars face hitting and leaving a mark making her feel very successful.

Esmeralda looked and looked.  Even though she found two of them she was having trouble finding more.  She kept looking only to find nothing.  Finally she found something.  It looked skeptical but she was sure it was just a trick of the light.  Light does that sometimes.  She picked it up and was about to approve of it when it fell apart.  Right in her hands it crumbled like dust and with it went some of her hopes.  Why was she having such a difficult time finding them she wondered.  Then she gave herself a quick pep tap on the forehead and continued looking.  She was going to find them all whether or not she has to spend all night out here with the flowers.  She liked the outdoors anyway so its not like it was that much of a loss.  Plus finding the one a few minutes ago kept her motivated.

While Esmeralda crawled around full of determination.  She found a few that looked close but she decided to steer away from that section and try a new area.  She slowly crawled around so focused on getting a decent plant that she forgot that she was crawling.  However, at this point she did not care, all she wanted was a plant that would work as sinew.  Then in the middle of the new patch was a plant that seemed to stand out from the rest.  She quickly crawled over and put her hand around it picking it up.  This one was a little tough to pull out but not difficult.  She looked at the plant, it was green and looked perfect.  Overjoyed she almost forgot that she was in the middle of a dangerous area and not the starting city and almost jumped up and shouted cheers of joy.  She looked for even more with a renewed since of determination.
