The walk from the Lake to the Pathways wasn't really long but it felt longer than necessary. Really, he was just following some older kids who were also walking in the same direction and who, he assumed, were also collecting rocks and sticks for the lesson. Some of them had rocks on them and he..... started comparing. Naturally.

UH. Was his rock too small??

Lucas bit his lip as he looked down at the rock in his arm. It didn't LOOK small to him but some others had huge rocks with them and he..... didn't know now. Maybe he should search again? Did he have time to do that?

No. No no, he had a stick to find first and then after that.... maybe. Maybe. He tried to focus on the path in front of him, bending down to look at the sticks near the edges and under some trees. But the only thing his eyes were picking up on was grass and mud and some bugs that were crawling away to safety. Was he too late? Did everyone take some alrea-

THERE! Right there!

Lucas shuffled over and picked up the- ..... oh. Hmm. It was a stick alright but it was a bit.... long, wasn't it? He eyed it carefully, and then at the ground around him, and then at the stick again. Yeah, maybe this would have to do. What other choice did he have? None.

Or none he wanted to look for because he was very nearly late.

Making his decision, he readjusted his grip on the rock and held the stick out in front of him like a sword and started walking as quickly as possible back to the lesson.
