Legacy World 8.37 Stampede

Conrad and Angie dunked as many canteens as they could handle, into the water all at once. Before they could acquire much water, some of the creatures closer to Angie and Conrad returned to secure their spot by the lake. The weaker ones that had been waiting for the chance to sneak in like Angie and Conrad did, coveted the spot too.

Conrad pointed at the water, then left to take on the creatures.

[Should I help you?]

/No, Elias and Valerie likely have their eyes on us. I should be fine./

In the original timeline, Conrad had to fight and retrieve the water by himself. So, Angie betted that, in the worst-case scenario, Conrad would suffer the same amount of damage in a shorter amount of time. She ignored the sounds of metal clanging, sparks crackling, and bone cracking. Cold sweat dripped down Angie's forehead as she fully focused on filling the canteens as quickly as she could. She was already juggling several canteens at once. A loss of focus could result in a stray canteen.
