((Thoth's Farm - Paoike Colony, Drever IV))

Thoth: You are welcome to stay here to wait out the storm.

Sherana scoffed slightly.

Sherana: I'm not scared of a bit of wind and rain. If you need assistance to tie down your things... ::She had decided that was what the tarp and rope were for:: ... I will assist.

Sh'Prelleon: And I will assist in herding the walking trees to the shelter. You may be more experienced with them, but it cannot hurt to have two pair of eyes on them to make sure they all arrive safely.

Looked between the two, somewhat surprised at their willingness to help. He was used to managing his farm on his own. 

Thoth: With the three of us working it will get done a lot faster.

The women nodded and Sherana moved over to him to grab the ropes and some tarp.

Sherana: I lived in a vISovbe' region during the Academy training. Tying down equipment was part of daily life.

((OOC: vISovbe' = Monsoon ))

Sh'Prelleon: That leaves us to take care of your friends. Tell me what to do.

((OOC: This is not how walking sticks should be handled irl. I had to take liberties given the walking trees' enormous size.))

He smiled at her. 

Thoth: Despite their size, walking trees are very pushable animals. You can usually just push them in the direction that you want them to go. 

He walked over to one of the larger ones. Its front legs reached out, and Thoth gently pushed them in the direction of the shelter. He then stepped behind the creature and carefully pushed on one of its back legs until it started walking.

Sh'Prelleon: Response

Thoth: Careful not to press too hard. You wouldn't want to hurt their legs. 

Antenna brushed the side of his face and he turned to another walking tree that seemed to have tilted its head to look at him. He carefully maneuvered this walking tree in a similar manner towards the shettler.   

Sh'Prelleon: Response

He went over to a small walking tree. Well, small by walking tree standards. It was still just a baby, about the size of a miniature horse. He gently picked it up by its thorax. Surprised at being picked up, it wiggled its front legs about as Thoth carried it to the safety of the shettler.

Sh'Prelleon: Response

Thoth: Because it's younger the legs are more delicate. I wouldn't want to be pushing it around. Picking them up is much safer for them. 

Sh'Prelleon: Response
