Pretty much! We use the bones for building and the teeth for weapons and the skin to make our tents and boats, the guts to make string...

[Totally normal tone of voice for talking under a red moon. Mostly.]

G-guts... To make string?

Yeah. The intestines aren't really good eating, so if we had enough, we'd use them for other things. I don't think we'll need to do that here... [A sigh.] So maybe I'd better figure out a way to cook them.

Or... You can just feed them to something else.

Like what? We don't keep any animals here.

There are other things out there?

Well, yeah, but just dumping it out in the forest could make it get rancid and attract disease before it attracted scavengers - I haven't seen many scavengers in Luceti, have you?

Uh... What?

It does?

Yeah. It's just - not healthy. If I don't find anything else to do with it, I can just burn it... although that seems disrespectful.

And it's not disrespectful to make it into rope?

No - it's about making sure that nothing in the animal goes to waste. Not only because we need it, but because we took its life. And so just like it would have lived its life to the fullest, we give it honor by using every part of it.

That... Doesn't make sense.

pfffffff - my apologies? markofthebrave August 11 2010, 05:21:07 UTC
Maybe it's just a world thing, then. [She's not sure how she can explain it any better, and doesn't really feel like trying tonight.]

I don't think we've met before. I'm Katara.
