OOC: I don't mind, Splat. I was struck by a car on May 1, and the bones in my right shin were shattered. To correct this, a metal rod was placed in my leg and screwed into place, holding the broken bone pieces together. The surgery from the other day was to remove two of the screws, which the docter thought were hindering the bone's healing process.

Roland quickly found and shot two small rabbits and a gopher. The gopher meat would be tough, but when stewed with the rabbit meat and some of the few vegetables in his knapsack, it would make a fine stew. He'd probably have enough to carry him through for two nights -- he was a light eater.
Roland searched around him and found some likely-looking kindling. He gathered what he could hold and returned to the place where the Eagle had let him off. Upon arriving, he found that the bird was gone. He dismissed this -- it was likely hunting it's own dinner.
Roland arranged his kindling, produced a flint and steel set and struck sparks into the wood. With a fire going, he produced a small pot, added some of his dwindling water supply, and began cooking.
