Stavanger Bay I don't mean to dist-herb you

Circling back around, Atoll picked up the bundle of herbs and trotted just out of sight of the hive, laying it down just far enough away that she could pause to pick it up without worrying about the bees overtaking her.

"I'm going to knock it down - as soon as they're all up in the air, dart in and grab the biggest piece of the hive you can easily reach and carry," she instructed. "Most of them should be on me, but you'll probably get stung a bit, too. I'll grab the bundle, and then we'll both high-tail it back to the bay. It should be far enough to lose them."

Tail wagging weakly, she tried to determine whether or not her friend agreed with the plan.
