This was no time to be crying she realised. She could deal with the trauma later - right now she needed to make sure she survived, and the first step to doing that was being well equipped. Pushing her emotions to the back of her mind, Krystal looks around the room for anything that could be of use to her. What she really needed was to contact the Great Fox, but the SharpClaw were a primitive race, and there was nothing she could use to communicate the ship. She also realised how vulnerable she felt without her prized staff. It would definitely have come in useful if she encountered these brutes again, and she couldn't trust her anger to help her a second time.

Better to focus on what I do have, than what I don't, Krystal thought to herself in an attempt at optimism. She glanced at the unconscious SharpClaw. It's not ideal, but that bastard's mace will serve as a temporary replacement for my staff. And there is plenty of food here, I just need a way to carry it...

Krystal has almost given up on searching when she spots a rucksack tucked under the bed, large enough to carry whatever supplies she needs. Taking it, she fills it with all the edible food she can find: fruit, bread etc - staying well clear of anything Liz has cooked for herself. She was in no hurry to swallow that white liquid again.

As it turns out, there isn't all that much healthy food in a typical SharpClaw home, and at the end of her search Krystal has turned up about a days' worth of food, if that. Glancing at the soup still simmering in the pot, she remembers how good it tasted - despite the ingredients. There's easily enough soup to last a few days if she brings it with her, but the thought makes her feel sick. She feels sicker still when she realises that if she took the bottle of white liquid with her, she could make an edible meal out of whatever she found in the wilderness, and there was easily enough liquid to last a week, if not more.

Does she:

• take the healthy food, leaving the soup and the white liquid?
• take the soup and food, leaving the white bottle?
• take the white liquid with her?
