:
You are back in the CLEARING. It is much darker, and you notice that the rain has gotten slightly worse, as well as a few more flashes of lightning are present. You realize that you should find shelter soon, as wet pants are uncomfortable.
You inspect the TURTLE SHELL. You see that it is only the bulbous top half of the shell, and therefore incapable of holding an occupant.
To the EAST of you is COTTAGE. In all other directions is FOREST.

What wouldst thou deau?

:
combine OLD STRING and TURTLE SHELL to create SHELL HAT, a STYLISH way to keep my head dry.

PRANCE to the COTTAGE and ask my WUMBERJACK BRO (WUMBROJACK) if I can either hang out until the rain dies down or if she might know of some other nearby SHELTER.
