"That's... not a berry..." He rolls the steel part between his thumb and forefinger studying it intently. "Never seen anything like this in my life, Nathan. It's odd, I'll give you that. At first glance, from the shape I thought it was an unexpended round, but my guess is it's a steel cast of a body part."
He passes the part back to Nathan.
"That's just bizzare." Something about the part causes something at the back of his skull to itch. Could be something. Could be nothing.
"Hang on to that Nathan. Maybe we can get it looked over at the next town. Might be important... Or not. Nothing doing either way at the moment, so we might as well find your horse sooner rather than later."
He shoots a quick glance at the sprawl before him, noting Ventus angling off in the direction of a Poliwag waddling around near the shore and takes quick stock of the topology relative to the map.
"Anyway, I did promise I'd help, so here I am. Don't know much about the species directly, but given it's a fire type, my guess is that we should start on the side of the river closer to your ranch. If we don't find anything, we can expand out search area from there."
He reaches down and pats Winston on the head. "You heard the man, Winston. No bitey."
The look Winston returns is pretty clear in it's intent - I'm not stupid, Boss.
"You're lead on this one Nathan. Let me know what you need and I'll assist the best I can."
