Good morning, Lady Winter!
And how is life in the Great Northern Lands?

That arrow is really cool! I love the point. Boy Scouts is pretty great, from what I hear. Now, when I was a lass, Girl Scouts was pretty lame. I didn't enjoy 'crafts' (preferred 'freelance art'), hated selling cookies, and our troop never did cool stuff. I wanted to do what the boys were doing! (They got to camp, do archery, knot-tying, you know...USEFUL stuff!) I dropped out fast.
Okay, here's your early morning trivia question:
Gaelen likes to get the most out of her gear--she won't discard her old boots until they are beyond repair.
What finally forces her to 'retire' them?
a. she is forced to wade through a bog, and she knows she will never get the stench out of the worn leather.
b. the old ones are dragged away and buried by wild dogs.
c. Magra makes an embarrassing comment concerning the shabbiness of the old ones.
d. the old ones are so worn that she can no longer repair them.
e. none of the above.
