Ouroboros Spine BWP: TSS There be treasure here

Shemesh snorted, resisting the urge to ruffle the fuzzy fur on top of Ajei’s head. With promises made and one tiny heart crossed, they could focus on what really mattered: opening the geode so Ajei could see what was inside.

”That’s easy! You just crack open the rock the rest of the way,” Shemesh said, digging at the geode until it came loose from the dirt. She rolled it into position, its crystalline interior facing up, and began her search for a suitable bludgeoning stone. ”Can you help me find another rock, Ajei?” Shemesh asked. She didn’t have any tools — or the hands to use them — so dropping things on it would have to do.

Shemesh spotted loose earth under a nearby evergreen, the moss and pine needles already disturbed. Maybe they could start looking there first.
